Request for JSON Dataset Support in Addition to CSV

I'm surprised the only way to add a dataset is as a CSV? Are there any plans to add support for dataset files as JSON?

Phoenix supports uploading datasets not only as CSV files but also as JSON objects. You can upload a dataset using a pandas DataFrame, a CSV file, or a series of dictionary objects, which can be JSON-like structures. This flexibility allows you to choose the format that best suits your needs. For instance, you can upload a dataset using dictionary objects by specifying inputs, outputs, and metadata as lists of dictionaries, which is similar to JSON format (source).If you are interested in JSONL format, there is a feature to download datasets in JSONL format, which suggests that JSON support is considered in the platform's design (source). Would you like more details on how to upload datasets using JSON-like structures?Sources: - GitHub Pull Request: JSONL Download - https://docs.arize.com/phoenix/api/client#upload_dataset
