CSV vs XLSX: Which Format to Choose

Practical differences between CSV and XLSX exports and when to use each.

Both formats are available for download, but they serve different needs. Here is how to pick the right one.

When to choose CSV

CSV is a plain-text, single-table file. It is universally supported, opens instantly in any spreadsheet app or text editor, and is ideal for piping into scripts, databases, or version control. Choose CSV when you need portability and a single table.

When to choose XLSX

XLSX is a binary spreadsheet workbook. It can hold multiple sheets in one file, preserves types better, and feels native in Excel. Choose XLSX when you have several tables and want them bundled, or when you will continue editing in a spreadsheet.

Exporting everything at once

If your JSON produced multiple tabs, "Download all (XLSX)" writes one workbook with one sheet per table — handy for sharing a complete dataset in a single file.
