How it works

How to download CSV

  1. Add a pipe table to your Markdown or open a .md file that contains one
  2. Place the table you want to export before any other tables if you have several
  3. Verify cells in the preview match what you expect
  4. Click “Download CSV” to save the first table only

Tips & use cases

Tips for reliable CSV

  • Keep header rows on the first line of the table block
  • Escape commas inside cells using quotes in Markdown if your parser requires it
  • Avoid merged cells—GFM tables are a simple grid
  • If Excel shows garbled text, confirm UTF-8 and try “From Text/CSV” import
  • For multiple tables, duplicate the doc or split files before export

FAQ

What if there are multiple tables?
Only the first table in the document is exported.
Is it free?
Yes. No sign-up, and processing stays in your browser.
What delimiter and line endings are used?
Fields are comma-separated; rows use standard newline characters for your platform. Adjust in Excel or your importer if a tool expects tabs instead.
Will formulas run in Excel?
CSV carries values and text only. After import, add formulas or number formats inside your spreadsheet app.
