Převod Json na SQL tabulku

Udělal bych to takto:

fn = r'D:\temp\.data\40450591.json'

with open(fn) as f:
    data = json.load(f)

# some of your records seem NOT to have `Tags` key, hence `KeyError: 'Tags'`
# let's fix it
for r in data['Volumes']:
    if 'Tags' not in r:
        r['Tags'] = []

v = pd.DataFrame(data['Volumes']).drop(['Attachments', 'Tags'],1)
a = pd.io.json.json_normalize(data['Volumes'], 'Attachments', ['VolumeId'], meta_prefix='parent_')
t = pd.io.json.json_normalize(data['Volumes'], 'Tags', ['VolumeId'], meta_prefix='parent_')

v.to_sql('volume', engine)
a.to_sql('attachment', engine)
t.to_sql('tag', engine)

Výstup:
