How to Convert CSV to INI Online?

Transform your CSV data into a structured INI file with our online converter. This is useful for creating configuration files from spreadsheet data.

1. Upload or Paste Your CSV

Paste your CSV data or upload a CSV file. The converter will attempt to automatically detect the delimiter (usually a comma).

2. Customize Your INI Output

You'll likely need to specify how the CSV data maps to the INI structure. Consider these options:

Section Names: How will sections in the INI file be named? This might involve using a column from your CSV data as the section name (e.g., the first column). Or, you might specify a fixed section name.
Key-Value Pairs: Each row in the CSV will typically map to key-value pairs within a section. You'll need to specify which column represents the key and which represents the value.

3. Generate the INI File

After configuring the mapping, the converter will generate the INI file. The INI file will be displayed, ready to copy and save.

What is CSV?

CSV (Comma-Separated Values) is a simple file format used to store tabular data, such as a spreadsheet or database. Each line of the file is a data record, with each field separated by commas.

What is an INI File?

An INI (Initialization) file is a simple text-based configuration file format. It uses sections enclosed in [section] brackets, and each section contains key-value pairs. For example:

[database]
host=localhost
port=5432
user=admin
password=secret

[server]
ip=192.168.1.100
port=8080

This converter aims to transform your CSV data into a similar INI structure, with the sections and key-value pairs derived from your CSV columns. The exact mapping from CSV columns to INI sections and keys would need to be configurable in the online tool.
