Frequently Asked Questions
Are values typed?
No — every value is a string. Apply coercions in your application if needed.
Which delimiters are auto-detected?
Commas, tabs, semicolons, and pipes.
Without a header row?
Set `has_header=false` — the JSON becomes an array of arrays instead of an array of objects.
