How do I convert a PARQUET file to NDJSON?

Upload your PARQUET file, choose NDJSON as the output format, and click Convert. The converter reads the columnar data and writes each record as a separate JSON object on its own line. Once complete, download the resulting .ndjson file and use it with any line-delimited JSON processor.

Why convert PARQUET to NDJSON instead of keeping PARQUET?

PARQUET is a binary columnar format that requires specific libraries like Apache Arrow or DuckDB to read. NDJSON is a plain-text line format that integrates directly with Unix tools (jq, grep), scripting languages (Python, Node.js), and streaming pipelines (Kafka, Kinesis). It is also more portable for sharing samples and ingesting into semi-structured databases.

How does conversion handle PARQUET logical types, nulls, and nested data?

All PARQUET logical types (Timestamp, Decimal, Date) are converted to JSON standards—timestamps become ISO 8601 strings, decimals become numbers, and dates are formatted as YYYY-MM-DD. Null values become JSON null, and nested structs, lists, and maps are recursively converted to nested JSON objects and arrays. No data is lost in the process.

Is PARQUET-TO-NDJSON free to use?

Yes, PARQUET-TO-NDJSON on LetsConvert is 100% free with no registration or hidden fees required.

Are my uploaded files safe and secure?

Does this converter work on mobile phones and tablets?

Yes! PARQUET-TO-NDJSON works seamlessly across iPhone, Android, iPad, Mac, Windows, and Linux browsers without installing any app.

Is there any software installation required?

No software or browser extension installation is needed. All conversions are performed directly online.
