CSV/TSV Converter

Parse CSV/TSV data and convert to JSON, SQL, HTML, or Markdown.

All processing happens locally in your browser. No data is sent to any server. GDPR/DORA compliant.
Prefix cells starting with = + - @ with ' so spreadsheets treat them as text, not formulas (OWASP). Plain numbers such as -5 are left as numbers.

CSV Reference

CSV Rules (RFC 4180)

  • Fields separated by delimiter
  • Rows separated by newlines
  • Quote fields with commas
  • Escape quotes with ""

Common Delimiters

  • , - Comma (CSV)
  • \t - Tab (TSV)
  • ; - Semicolon (EU)
  • | - Pipe

Output Formats

  • JSON (objects) - header keys each row
  • JSON (2D array) - raw rows
  • CSV / TSV - clean, RFC 4180 quoted
  • SQL INSERT - database imports
  • Markdown / HTML - docs & web tables

Tips

  • Set Input to JSON to convert JSON → CSV
  • Newlines inside quotes are preserved
  • Keep the injection guard on (the default) before opening output in Excel
  • CSV ↔ JSON round-trips without loss
