Frequently Asked Questions
What SQL dialects are supported?
MySQL uses backtick quoting and AUTO_INCREMENT, PostgreSQL uses double-quoted identifiers and SERIAL, and SQLite uses INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT for auto-increment fields.
How does chunked processing work?
Uploaded files are parsed in 5 MB chunks with PapaParse. The page logs progress and updates row counts while the CSV is read.
How does auto type detection work?
The tool samples the first 50 rows of each column and checks whether values match integers, decimals, booleans, dates, datetimes, or long text. Review and override detected types before using the SQL.
How are empty cells handled?
Empty cells are converted to NULL in the generated SQL INSERT statements.
What is batch INSERT?
Batch mode groups up to 500 rows into each INSERT statement, which creates fewer SQL statements for larger CSV files.
