    Have you tried anything yet? Perhaps even searching on Google? I found this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8847766/how-to-convert-json-to-csv-format-and-store-in-a-variable#8924856 – Phiter Feb 27 '18 at 18:28

JSON allows nested structures, whereas CSV is flat. Therefore, you can't save JSON as CSV unless:

  • you can guarantee that your JSON will never have nested elements
  • you can pre-define how nested elements should be flattened
  • you wish to store chunks of JSON as single columns in the CSV file (serialization)
