How does it handle nested objects?

Nested objects are rendered as indented Markdown lists. You can also fall back to a JSON code block.

Will column order be consistent?

Yes — columns follow the key order of the first object in the array.

What if my array has objects with different keys?

Column union mode includes all unique keys across all objects, with empty cells for missing values.

Can I get JSON code blocks for nested values?

Yes — deeply nested values are rendered as inline JSON code blocks to preserve readability.

JSON to Markdown examples

Paste real JSON in the left column, see the Markdown output on the right.

Array of flat objects → table

JSON

[{"name":"Alice","age":30},{"name":"Bob","age":25}]

Markdown

| name | age | | --- | --- | | Alice | 30 | | Bob | 25 |

Column union across objects

JSON

[{"a":1,"b":2},{"a":3,"c":4}]

Markdown

| a | b | c | | --- | --- | --- | | 1 | 2 | | | 3 | | 4 |

Nested object → list

JSON

{ "user": { "name": "Alice", "age": 30 } }

Markdown

- **user** - **name**: Alice - **age**: 30

How JSON-to-Markdown conversion works

Paste JSON — Paste JSON into the input field.

Pick format — Auto chooses table for arrays of objects and list for nested objects.

Copy — Copy the Markdown output.

JSON edge cases we handle

Column union

Arrays with objects having different keys merge into a union — missing fields render as empty cells.

Primitive values

Strings, numbers, booleans, and null are rendered as literals. Complex nested values become inline JSON code.

Deep nesting cap

Beyond the configured max depth (default 4) nested structures fall back to an inline JSON code block to stay readable.

Invalid JSON

Parse errors are returned as inline warnings — the tool never silently discards broken input.
