Secure & PrivateFast ProcessingFree to Use

Streamline Your Database Imports

Importing data from CSV files into a relational database can be a headache, especially when dealing with date formats, escaping quotes, and creating table structures manually. Our CSV to SQL converter handles the heavy lifting for you. It parses your CSV file and generates a ready-to-execute SQL script containing both CREATE TABLE and INSERT INTO statements. This allows you to populate your database in seconds, regardless of whether you use MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, or SQL Server. It's the perfect tool for developers and DBAs who need to seed databases quickly. Use our online CSV to SQL tool to simplify your workflow.

From CSV to Database in 3 Steps

Upload Source Data

Provide your CSV data via file upload or direct paste. Ensure your CSV has a header row, as this will be used to generate the column names for the SQL table.

Generate SQL Script

The tool infers column names and data types (integer, text, etc.) to build the CREATE TABLE query and formats the data into INSERT statements.

Execute in Database

Copy the resulting SQL code and run it in your database client (e.g., DBeaver, pgAdmin, SSMS) to create the table and insert the data.

Built for DBAs and Developers

Automatic Schema Detection

We analyze your data to guess if a column is an INTEGER, VARCHAR, or DATE, creating an appropriate table structure automatically so you don't have to write the DDL manually.

SQL Injection Safe

We properly escape values (like single quotes inside strings) to ensure the generated SQL is safe to run and syntactically correct, preventing common import errors.

Cross-Database Support

The output is standard SQL, making it compatible with virtually all relational database management systems (RDBMS) including MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, and SQLite.

No Server Uploads

Your sensitive production data is processed locally in your browser. We never see your data, ensuring compliance with privacy regulations and security best practices.

Batch Insert Optimization

We generate efficient INSERT statements (often grouping multiple rows into a single INSERT) to significantly speed up the import process for large datasets.

When You Need This Tool

Data Migration

Moving data from a legacy system, Excel spreadsheet, or third-party export into a new SQL database structure.

Development Seeding

Quickly populating a local development or staging database with realistic test data generated from CSV files.

Ad-Hoc Analysis

Loading a dataset into a temporary table to run complex SQL queries, joins, and aggregations that are difficult to perform in Excel.

FAQ: How to Convert CSV to SQL

How to convert CSV to SQL?

1. Upload your CSV file or paste the content directly into the input area of our CSV to SQL converter. 2. Click the 'Convert' button. 3. The tool generates the SQL script automatically. 4. Copy the generated SQL code and run it in your database management tool (e.g., MySQL Workbench, phpMyAdmin, DBeaver).

Which databases are supported?

Our generated SQL is standard ANSI SQL, making it compatible with most major relational databases including MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Microsoft SQL Server, and Oracle.

Does it handle special characters?

Yes, we automatically escape single quotes (e.g., converting 'O'Connor' to 'O''Connor') and handle other special characters to prevent SQL syntax errors and ensure data integrity.

Can I customize the table name?

Yes, the tool typically uses the filename as the default table name, but you can easily edit the `CREATE TABLE` statement in the generated output to match your preferred naming convention.

Is it safe for large files?

Yes. Since the processing is done locally in your browser, you can convert large CSV files without worrying about upload limits or server timeouts.
