How to use Convert SQLite to CSV
- 1. Drop in the database file. Browse for or drag a .sqlite, .sqlite3 or .db file onto the input area. The database is opened entirely in your browser, so nothing is uploaded to a server.
- 2. Pick a table, or take them all. Type a table name into the Table field to export just that one. Leave it blank and every table in the database is dumped, each clearly separated in the output.
- 3. Copy the exported rows. The output pane shows each table as CSV with a header row of column names. Copy it into a spreadsheet, a report or the input of another CSV tool on this site.
When to use Convert SQLite to CSV
Convert SQLite to CSV pulls tables out of a database file and flattens them into plain comma-separated text. Reach for it when someone hands you a .db file and you need the contents in a spreadsheet, an email or a diff, without firing up a SQLite client.
- Inspecting an app's local database. Mobile apps and Electron apps stash their state in SQLite. Export the tables to CSV to read what an app actually stored without learning its schema first.
- Moving data into Google Sheets. A stakeholder wants the users table in a shared sheet. Export that single table by name, paste the CSV into Sheets, and skip the whole CLI dance.
- Diffing two database snapshots. Binary .sqlite files are opaque to diff tools. Dump both snapshots to CSV and compare the text to see exactly which rows changed between backups.
- Recovering data from an orphaned file. You found a .db file from a decommissioned tool and just need its records. Exporting to CSV rescues the data into a format everything else can read.
