tsv to json conversion

Convert TSV to JSON using Java REST API.

TSV files, often used for storing structured tabular data, are not always compatible with systems or APIs that require hierarchical data formats like JSON. JSON’s lightweight and flexible structure makes it ideal for web, mobile, and cloud applications, enabling seamless integration and better performance. Therefore, by converting TSV to JSON, we can bridge the gap between structured and hierarchical data, allowing easier data manipulation, storage, and sharing.

Java REST API for TSV to JSON Conversion

Converting TSV to JSON using Aspose.Cells Cloud SDK for Java is a straightforward and efficient process, enabling developers to seamlessly transform tabular data into a lightweight and versatile JSON format. Beyond TSV to JSON conversion, it enables tasks such as creating, editing, and converting Excel files, performing complex calculations, and generating visually appealing charts and tables.

Installation

In order to use the Cloud SDK, we need to add the following Maven dependencies to our pom.xml file:.

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>AsposeJavaAPI</id>
        <name>Aspose Java API</name>
        <url>https://repository.aspose.cloud/repo/</url>
    </repository>
</repositories>
<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.aspose</groupId>
        <artifactId>aspose-cells-cloud</artifactId>
        <version>24.9</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

Now, we need to obtain our client credentials from cloud dashboard. If you do not have an existing account, simply create a free account by following the instructions specified in the quick start article.

Convert TSV to JSON in Java

This section provides the details on how to convert a TSV to JSON format using Java code snippet:

CellsApi api = new CellsApi(clientId,clientSecret);

Create an instance of CellsApi while providing client credentials as input arguments.

api.uploadFile("input.tsv", file, "internal");

Upload the input TSV to the cloud storage using uploadFile(…) method.

File response = api.cellsWorkbookGetWorkbook(name,  password,format, 
			isAutoFit, onlySaveTable, null,"internal",  "myResultant.json","internal", null);

Finally, call the method cellsWorkbookGetWorkbook(…) to initiate the conversion operation.

TSV to JSON Online using cURL Commands

Converting TSV to JSON using Aspose.Cells Cloud and cURL commands is a simple yet powerful solution for handling data transformation. This method is efficient, automating the conversion process while maintaining data accuracy and integrity. It also eliminates the need for local installations, offering a scalable and cloud-based approach to data processing.

The first step in this method is to generate a JWT access token using the following command:

curl -v "https://api.aspose.cloud/connect/token" \
 -X POST \
 -d "grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=XXXXXXX-b195-426c-85f7-XXXXXXXX&client_secret=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" \
 -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
 -H "Accept: application/json"

Now that we have the JWT token, we need to execute the following command and convert TSV to JSON format.

curl -v "https://api.aspose.cloud/v3.0/cells/{sourceFile}/SaveAs?newfilename={myResultant}&isAutoFitRows=false&isAutoFitColumns=false&checkExcelRestriction=false" \
-X POST \
-H "accept: application/json" \
-H "authorization: Bearer {accessToken}" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d "{ \"SaveFormat\": \"json\",}"

Replace sourceFile with the name of input TSV file (available in the cloud storage), myResultant with the name of resultant JSON file and accessToken with JWT access token generated above.

You may consider using following command to convert TSV to JSON and save the resultant file on local drive.

curl -v "https://api.aspose.cloud/v3.0/cells/resultantFile.json?format=JSON&isAutoFit=false&onlySaveTable=false" \
-X GET \
-H "accept: application/json" \
-H "authorization: Bearer {accessToken}" \
-o "output.json"
