This quick tutorial guides on how to export JSON to Excel in Node.js. It has environment settings for testing the sample code, a list of steps for writing the application, and a runnable sample code to develop a JSON to Excel converter in Node.js. You will also learn different techniques to customize the reading of data from the source JSON file and set different properties of the data exported to the Excel file.

Steps to Convert JSON to XLSX in Node.js

1. Set the environment to use Aspose.Cells for Node.js via Java for JSON to Excel conversion
2. Read the JSON contents into a string variable
3. Set the formatting for the JSON data while displayed in an Excel file
4. Customize the JSON reading task using the JsonLayoutOptions object
5. Instantiate a workbook and access the sheet where JSON data is to be imported
6. Call the importData() method from the JsonUtility class

These steps summarize the process to import JSON to Excel in Node.js. The process is initiated by reading the JSON contents into a string variable followed by setting the output data format in the Excel file and customization of the reading process from the JSON file. In the final step, the JsonUtility class is used to finally import data using the importData() method.

Code to Convert JSON File to Excel in Node.js

This code demonstrates the process to export JSON to Excel in Node.js. It uses the CellsFactory class to create a default style and later modify it for using it in JsonLayoutOptions like setting the text alignment, color, and bold state however, there are a lot of other properties that can be set for instance, setting borders, background color, text direction, and wrapped text flag. Similarly, once the JSON data is imported into the workbook, you may utilize other features available in the Workbook and Worksheet classes.
