POST /v1/core/csv-to-json

CSV to JSON

Delimiters are detected, headers are used as keys, and numbers become numbers rather than strings.

Turn a spreadsheet into JSON now No key, no code — 1 credit either way.

curl -X POST "$DOATHING_API/v1/core/csv-to-json" \
  -H "x-api-key: $DOATHING_KEY" \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{"text": "a,b\n1,true"}'

Delimiters are detected, headers are used as keys, and numbers become numbers rather than strings.

Convert CSV to JSON records with delimiter sniffing, header detection and optional type coercion.

Input

Send either a text string or a file object. A file is decoded as UTF-8 and must be one of text/csv, text/plain.

Response

The result carries your remaining balance alongside it, so you can track spend without a second call.

{
  "text": "[\n  {\n    \"a\": 1,\n    \"b\": true\n  }\n]",
  "rows": 1,
  "columns": [
    "a",
    "b"
  ],
  "delimiter": ",",
  "request_id": "37f01edb-0163-42a1-ac51-0acaef979800",
  "credits_remaining": 96
}

Cost

1 credit per call, whether it is run from the site or from the API — the credential differs, the price does not. A new account starts with 20 credits.

A rejected request still costs a credit: the authorizer decrements before the tool validates. A call rejected for a missing or invalid key is free.

Parameters

Generated from the endpoint’s own validation, so this is exactly what it accepts. A body field goes at the top level; an option goes inside options.
