How to convert JSON to HTML table with FileFlip
Select the JSON files
In Finder or on the Desktop. One file, or a whole folder with ⌘ A.
Press ⌥ F
FileFlip opens next to the selection and lists the formats it can make from JSON. Type “HTML table” to jump to it.
Choose HTML table and press Return
The HTML table files appear next to the originals with the same names. The JSON files stay as they are.
JSON and HTML table
JSON doesn’t open in spreadsheet apps, which want a flat table. An HTML table can go straight into a web page or website editor.
What changes when you convert
- The result is a table you can paste into a web page or website editor.
| Property | JSON | HTML table |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Data for code, web APIs and apps | Tables on web pages |
| Opens in | Every programming language and code editor | Every web browser |
| File extension | .json | .html |
| In FileFlip | Opens and saves | Saves |

Questions about JSON and HTML table
Can I convert many JSON files at once?
Yes. Select them all in Finder, press ⌥ F and choose HTML table. Progress moves to the menu bar, so you can close the panel and keep working.
Where is the HTML table file saved?
Next to the original, with the same name and the .html extension. The JSON file isn’t changed. In Settings you can choose a different folder instead.
Can I convert HTML table back to JSON?
No. FileFlip saves HTML table files but doesn’t open them.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. FileFlip converts files on your Mac and works with the internet turned off.
Convert a folder of data files at once
FileFlip also handles images, camera raw files, video, audio, PDFs and documents. Requires macOS 14 Sonoma or later.
