SQL to CSV Converter

What Is SQL to CSV Conversion?

SQL to CSV conversion transforms SQL statements — particularly INSERT statements — into comma-separated values (CSV) format. This is useful when you need to migrate database records between systems, share data with non-technical stakeholders, import data into spreadsheet applications like Excel or Google Sheets, or feed data into ETL pipelines. The converter parses SQL INSERT statements to extract column names for the CSV header row and row values for the data rows. It also supports parsing CREATE TABLE statements for schema extraction and SELECT output for tabular data. With customizable delimiter and enclosure options, you can tailor the CSV output to match your target system's requirements. This tool handles quoted strings, NULL values, and common SQL data types automatically.

How to Use This Converter

1. Paste your SQL — Enter INSERT statements, SELECT results, or CREATE TABLE statements.
2. Configure options — Choose delimiter (comma, tab, semicolon, pipe) and enclosure (double quotes, single quotes, or none).
3. Review the CSV — The converted CSV updates in real time as you type or change options.
4. Copy or download — Click Copy to copy to clipboard, or Download to save as a .csv file.
