JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data interchange format that is easy for humans to read and write and easy for machines to parse and generate.
JSON has become the de facto standard for data exchange on the web, and it is widely used in APIs.
As stated by the RFC 8259, we expect strings in uploaded JSON files to be encoded in UTF-8.
If your file contains non UTF-8 characters, you might get an error when parsing your data.
Tab-separated values (TSV) is a simple and widely used format for storing tabular data. It is human-readable and easy to generate and parse.
The row delimiter is the character used to separate each row in the TSV data. This is usually a new line character (LF), or a carriage return plus a new line character (CRLF).
We will automatically detect this and parse the rows correctly.
The value separator is the character used to separate each value inside a row.
For TSV files, as the name implies it is usually a tab character, but it can be different depending on the software used to generate the TSV file.
Depending on what software you used to generate the TSV file, it might have a different character encoding
If no character encoding is specified we will automatically try to guess it, so you don't have to worry about it if you're unsure.
