How it works
A table, not a wall of text
CSV stores a table as plain text: each record is a line and each field is separated by a delimiter. Quoted fields can contain commas, quotes, and line breaks, which makes raw files difficult to inspect safely in a text editor.
This viewer detects common CSV delimiters, keeps quoted content together, gives ambiguous headers stable labels, and pads uneven rows into a consistent table. Your source header text is retained when you save your edits.
Plain answers
CSV viewer questions
How do I open a CSV file?+
Drop or choose a .csv file up to 50 MB, paste CSV text, or open the sample. The quick viewer parses the content and shows it as a table.
How do I work with a larger file?+
Use Analyze with SQL for CSV and Parquet files up to 5 GiB. It uploads selected files to a private leased Loam Namespace so you can query one file or join several files with SELECT SQL.
What is the CSV file-size limit?+
The quick viewer accepts selected or pasted CSV input up to 50 MB. Loam-backed SQL analysis accepts CSV and Parquet files up to 5 GiB.
Can I sort and filter CSV rows?+
Yes. Filter any column, then select a column heading to sort ascending or descending. The row counter shows how many rows remain in the active view.
Can I download edited CSV data?+
Save as downloads a copy of the complete table, including your edits. Filters and sorting change the view; they do not remove rows from the saved file.
Can I merge files or convert CSV here?+
Yes. Dedicated tools merge CSV files or convert CSV to JSON, TSV, Excel, and Parquet. Analyze with SQL can add multiple CSV or Parquet tables and join them with SELECT SQL.
