Increasingly, a wide range of online data is being supplied as JSON files. The file format is very versatile and efficient allowing rapid data transfer

However, Access does not currently provide an easy method of working with JSON files.

JSON Analyse & Transform for Access (JATFA) has been designed to make importing and handling JSON files a straightforward and, in many cases, a largely automated task.

Features include:
a) Fully automated analysis of JSON files including handling of subarrays
b) Fully automated creation of tables and transform functions based on file analysis.
c) Import JSON data into normalised Access tables based on file analysis
d) Over 90 sample JSON files are supplied as examples
