About JSON to Qlik Converter

Convert JSON data to QlikView/Qlik Sense load script format. Generate ready-to-use LOAD statements for importing JSON data into Qlik applications.

Key Features

  • Inline LOAD: Generate LOAD INLINE statements with embedded data
  • External File: Generate LOAD statements for external JSON files
  • Field Mapping: Automatic field name sanitization and mapping
  • Type Handling: Proper handling of strings, numbers, booleans, and objects
  • Tab Delimited: Uses tab delimiter for clean data separation
  • Statistics: Includes record count and field information
  • File Upload: Upload JSON files directly or paste data
  • Instant Preview: Real-time conversion as you type

How to Use

  1. Input JSON Data: Paste your JSON data or upload a .json file
  2. Configure Options: Set table name and choose inline or external load
  3. Review Output: The Qlik script updates automatically
  4. Copy or Download: Use the Copy or Download button to save your .qvs file
  5. Use in Qlik: Paste the script into your Qlik load editor

Example Conversion

JSON Input:

[
  {"OrderID": 10001, "Customer": "John", "Amount": 1200},
  {"OrderID": 10002, "Customer": "Jane", "Amount": 850}
]

Qlik Output (Inline):

DataTable:
LOAD * INLINE [
OrderID	Customer	Amount
10001	John	1200
10002	Jane	850
] (delimiter is '\t');

Qlik Output (External File):

DataTable:
LOAD
    OrderID as [OrderID],
    Customer as [Customer],
    Amount as [Amount]
FROM [lib://DataFiles/DataTable.json]
(JSON);

Common Use Cases

  • Data Import: Import JSON API responses into Qlik
  • ETL Process: Transform JSON data for Qlik analytics
  • Dashboard Development: Quickly load test data into Qlik apps
  • Data Integration: Connect JSON data sources to Qlik
  • Prototyping: Create sample data loads for development

Load Types

  • Inline Load: Embeds data directly in the script (best for small datasets)
  • External Load: References external JSON file (best for large datasets)
  • Tab Delimiter: Uses tab character for clean field separation
  • Field Aliases: Preserves original field names with aliases

Data Type Handling

  • Strings: Properly escaped with single quotes
  • Numbers: Loaded as numeric values
  • Booleans: Converted to 1 (true) or 0 (false)
  • Objects: Serialized as JSON strings
  • Null: Converted to empty strings

Using in QlikView/Qlik Sense

  1. Copy the generated script
  2. Open your Qlik application
  3. Go to the Data Load Editor
  4. Paste the script into your load script
  5. Click "Load Data" to execute

Best Practices

  • Small Data: Use inline LOAD for datasets under 1000 records
  • Large Data: Use external file reference for larger datasets
  • Field Names: Special characters are automatically sanitized
  • Testing: Always test with sample data first
  • Performance: Consider using QVD files for very large datasets

Privacy & Security

All conversions happen locally in your browser. Your JSON data is never uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy and security.
