CSV to SQL Online

Updated 2026-07-09

Convert CSV to SQL INSERT statements online for free. Paste CSV, set a table name, and SnapTools generates one ready-to-run INSERT per row — numbers left unquoted, empty cells as NULL, and quotes safely escaped. Everything runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.

Loading a spreadsheet into a database usually means an import wizard or a hand-written script. This tool turns CSV straight into INSERT statements you can paste into your SQL client, seed file, or migration — with valid, sanitized identifiers every time.

// how to use

  1. 1 Paste your CSV (the first row is treated as the column names).
  2. 2 Set the target table name and pick a delimiter if auto-detect gets it wrong.
  3. 3 Copy or download the generated INSERT statements.

// examples

// faq

Numeric values are written unquoted, empty cells become NULL, and everything else is wrapped in single quotes. Single quotes inside a value are escaped by doubling them ('O''Brien').
The output uses backtick-quoted identifiers, which works with MySQL and MariaDB. For PostgreSQL or SQL Server you may need to swap backticks for double quotes.
Table and column names are sanitized to letters, numbers, and underscores so the identifiers are always valid. The first CSV row supplies the column names.
The generated SQL is for you to run against your own database. Values are quote-escaped for valid syntax, but you should still review generated SQL before running it on production data.
No — the SQL is generated in your browser, so nothing leaves your machine.
