Hi Ken -

Depending on how the data is structured you can pretty easily convert json data to CSV files via online tools like this:

Otherwise, there are more options available.

Am finding files and photos are well-preserved in the unzipped download. However, messages are saved in javascript notation (.json files). And while they can be opened easily with notepad or other text viewer, they display in a form like page source once opened. A lot of code..

Am new to converting .json files and my Googling so far has not turned up a way to open them so that they display just the messages and comments without all the extraneous source code. If anyone knows a trick to do that, please, please share with us.
