I am trying to process publicly listed companies financials. I have downloaded the data now I am trying to convert it to JSON format.
There are subsections in the table and used 4 ~'s to denote 1 indentation and 8 for 2 indentations as below:
- one indentation represents 1 level down
- double indentation represents 2 levels down
For example Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) incl. D&A is the section header and COGS Growth should be captured as a child element of Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) incl. D&A.
Can you please help me in identifying a way as to how to convert this dataframe to a JSON file?
