Extracting data from JSON File to CSV
I have a big JSON file with a very complex structure
you can look on it here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tBVJ2xYSCpTTUGPJegvAz2ZXbeN0bteX/view?usp=sharing
it contains more than 7 millions lines, and I want to extract only the "text" field
I have written a python code, to extra all the values of the "text" key or field in the whole file, and it extracted only 12 values! while when I open the JSON file on the Visualstudio, I have more than 19000 values!!
you can see the code here:
import json
import csv
with open("/Users/zahraa-maher/rasa-init-demo/venv/Tickie/external_data/frames2.json") as file:
data = json.load(file)
fname = "outputText8.csv"
with open(fname, "w") as file:
csv_file = csv.writer(file,lineterminator='\n')
csv_file.writerow(["text"])
for item in data[i]["turns"]:
csv_file.writerow([item['text']])
please take a look on the JSON file as it is very large one and with a complex structure, so I an not paste it here to see because it would be not understandable
also this is a part of the son file:

How it could be modified to extract all the "text" values from the JSON file to a CSV file?

This is a potential solution using pandas:
import pandas as pd
#importing data
dj = pd.read_json("frames2.json")
dtext = dj[["user_id","turns"]]
#Saving text records in a list
list_ = []
for record in dtext["turns"].values:
for r in record:
list_.append(r["text"])
#Exporting the csv
out = pd.Series(list_,name="text")
out.to_csv("text.csv")
It gives the following output.

Try:
import json
import csv
with open("/Users/zahraa-maher/rasa-init-demo/venv/Tickie/external_data/frames2.json") as file:
data = json.load(file)
fname = "outputText8.csv"
with open(fname, "w") as file:
csv_file = csv.writer(file,lineterminator='\n')
csv_file.writerow(["text"])
for keys,values in data.items():
now it up to you which of the fields you want to save, if you user a debugger you can see the values and Keys
