Is "JSON Manipulator - JSON to CSV converter" on Chrome Web Store Safe to Install?

[email protected] · chrome · v0.4.0

NEW FEATURE: convert JSON to CSV, even if your JSON is arbitrarily nested. Discoverable Json essentially flattens your JSON data (however nested) into valid javascript expressions. It's very a simple but powerful concept. With absolute javascript paths, you can easily search for the sliver of data you care about. Or, remove the data that are not relevant to you. Or, find and replace. Discoverable Json also automatically reconstructs your data manipulation back to JSON. If you want, you can download the end result. When you are dealing with a sparsely documented JSON blob, or a brand new API that returns a JSON, or simply just got overwhelmed by a deeply nested JSON structure, this tool will help you sort out the mess and find exactly what you need.
