Frequently Asked Questions

What does the generated Markdown include?

The tool generates GitHub-flavored Markdown table syntax including headers, separator rows, and data rows. You can optionally include or exclude headers based on your needs.

Can I customize the table appearance?

While Markdown tables have limited styling options, you can control whether headers are included and limit the number of rows. The generated Markdown is compatible with all Markdown processors and platforms.

How does the live preview work?

The preview renders the data as an HTML table so you can see the structure and content before converting to Markdown. This helps you verify the data before generating the Markdown file.

What if my JSON has complex nested objects?

The tool works best with flat JSON objects where each object represents a table row. For nested objects, the tool will convert them to string representations. Consider flattening your data first for complex structures.

Can I limit the number of rows in the table?

Yes, you can set a maximum number of rows to include in the generated table. This is useful for large datasets where you only want to display a preview or sample of the data.

Is the generated Markdown GitHub compatible?

Yes, the tool generates GitHub-flavored Markdown (GFM) table syntax, which is compatible with GitHub, GitLab, and most modern Markdown processors that support table extensions.
