CSV to JSON API (RFC 4180)

Splitting on commas works until the first address field. This endpoint parses CSV the way RFC 4180 defines it: quoted fields may contain the delimiter, doubled quotes and line breaks; CRLF and LF endings and the byte-order mark Excel writes are handled.

Malformed input is refused with the line number rather than guessed at, and ragged rows are a 400 - nothing is silently padded or shifted between columns.

Questions

How big a file can I send?

2 MB per request. Larger bodies are refused with a 413 before they are read in full.

Are numbers converted?

No: every value comes back as the exact string in the file, so ZIP codes and IDs keep their leading zeros. Convert the columns you need on your side.
