What Is a CSV to SQL?

Loading a CSV into a relational database usually means writing INSERT statements or configuring a bulk-load command. This converter does the first for you: it parses the CSV (per RFC 4180, so quoted fields with embedded commas are handled), reads the header row as column names, and emits a standard INSERT INTO table (columns) VALUES (...) statement for every data row.

The generated SQL aims for the common subset that runs unchanged across MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite. Numeric-looking values are written bare; everything else is wrapped in single quotes with internal quotes doubled — the standard SQL string escape — so apostrophes in names or addresses do not break the script. Empty cells become NULL. The optional CREATE TABLE statement declares every column as TEXT, a safe default you can retype to INTEGER, DATE, and so on before running it.

Use it to seed a development database, migrate a spreadsheet into a table, or build a repeatable import script. Everything runs in your browser, so the data in the CSV never leaves your machine. For very large files, prefer your database's native bulk loader, which is far faster than thousands of individual INSERTs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which SQL dialect is produced?
Standard INSERT syntax that works across MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite. The optional CREATE TABLE uses TEXT columns you can retype afterward.
How are quotes escaped?
Single quotes inside values are doubled, the standard SQL escape, so apostrophes in names or addresses will not break the statements.
Can I set the table name?
Yes. Type any table name and it is used in both the CREATE TABLE and every INSERT statement the tool emits.
