- Database Import: Many relational databases prefer CSV for bulk imports
- Legacy Systems: Older systems often require CSV format

Understanding JSON Arrays
Our converter works best with JSON arrays of objects. Each object in the array becomes a row in the CSV, and the object keys become column headers. For example:
Input JSON:
[
{"name": "John", "age": 30, "city": "New York"},
{"name": "Jane", "age": 25, "city": "Los Angeles"}
]Output CSV:
name,age,city John,30,New York Jane,25,Los Angeles
