Hey my frontend is ready , this is what my UI looks like i have provided you the image , initially what we used to do is we used to fetch the latest email then pass the plain text and keywords to the LLM Model and then it used to return the JSON Output . Then to automate the workflow we used n8n workflow for automation . But now since we had the meet with the zoho team they have asked us to not use any third party application so we cant use n8n . So now we have builded the frontend UI as you can see there is option of download JSON , now we must also have the option as Download .csv file which is the alternative of n8n google sheets . So please guide me through this step by step and lets begin working . I hope you understand what i want
I completely understand! 🎯 You've built a beautiful frontend UI and now need to replace the n8n workflow (which was automating Google Sheets) with a Download CSV feature directly in your application.
Let me break down what we need to implement:
Current Workflow:
- ✅ Fetch latest email
- ✅ Pass text + keywords to LLM
- ✅ Get JSON output
- ✅ Display in UI with Download JSON
- ❌ Missing: Download CSV (replacement for n8n → Google Sheets)
What We Need to Add:
Step 1: CSV Export Functionality
- Add a "Download CSV" button next to "Download JSON"
- Convert the parsed JSON data into CSV format
- Handle nested objects and arrays properly
Step 2: CSV Structure Design
- Flatten the JSON structure for CSV compatibility
- Create meaningful column headers
- Handle different data types (strings, numbers, arrays, objects)
Step 3: Implementation
Let me implement this step by step:
Perfect! Here's What I've Implemented:
CSV Export Features:
- Download CSV Button - Added next to Download JSON in both Email and PDF sections
- Smart Data Flattening - Converts nested JSON to CSV-friendly format
- Array Handling - Properly handles arrays and nested objects
- UTF-8 Support - Includes BOM for proper Excel compatibility
- Timestamped Filenames - Automatic filename generation with timestamps
Key Features:
- Replaces n8n workflow - Direct CSV download eliminates need for third-party automation
- Excel-ready format - CSV files open perfectly in Excel/Google Sheets
- Handles complex data - Flattens nested objects and arrays intelligently
- Error handling - Graceful error handling with user feedback
- Beautiful UI - CSV button styled with emerald colors to distinguish from JSON
CSV Structure:
- Flattened columns -
request_details.client_name,parsed_output.field_name, etc. - Array handling - Arrays become
field[0],field[1], etc. - Proper escaping - Handles quotes, commas, and special characters
- Consistent formatting - All data properly formatted for spreadsheet use
Next Steps:
- Test the CSV export with your real data
- Verify Excel compatibility - Open downloaded CSV in Excel
- Customize column structure if needed for your specific use case
- Add more export options if required (like filtering specific fields)
Now you have a complete replacement for your n8n → Google Sheets workflow! 🎯

AS you can see , i want the keys and values to be match like a key value pair . For ex i will show you the n8n google sheets implementation . I have shared you both the current csv output and the n8n google sheets output
I see the issue! 🎯 You want a vertical key-value pair format like your n8n Google Sheets implementation, not the horizontal format I created.
Looking at your images:
- Current CSV: Horizontal with very long column names (hard to read)
- Desired format: Vertical key-value pairs (much cleaner and readable)
Let me fix the CSV export to match your n8n format:
Perfect! Here's what I've implemented:
Key Changes:
- Vertical Key-Value Format - Now matches your n8n Google Sheets layout
- Clean Field Names - Removes prefixes like
request_details.andparsed_output. - Special Array Handling -
daily_amountsbecomes separatedaily_dateanddaily_amountrows - Two Column Structure - "Field" and "Value" columns like your n8n format
New CSV Output Format:
Loading table...
Features:
- Readable format - Easy to work with in Excel/Google Sheets
- Clean field names - No long prefixes
- Proper array handling - Daily amounts as separate rows
- Excel compatible - UTF-8 BOM included
- Backward compatibility - Can still export horizontal format if needed
Now your CSV export will look exactly like your n8n Google Sheets format! 🎯

nope not like that i want it in this way
