Frequently Asked Questions

Does it support multiple sheets?

Yes. If your workbook has multiple sheets, they will be organized by sheet name in the final JSON object.

How does it handle headers?

The tool assumes the first row of each sheet contains headers, which become the keys in your JSON objects.

Is there a file size limit?

Since the conversion happens locally, the limit is based on your browser's memory. Most spreadsheets up to 20-30MB convert instantly.
