YAML is the standard format for configuration files in DevOps tools like Ansible, Kubernetes, Docker Compose, and CI/CD pipelines. Converting CSV allows you to manage config data in spreadsheets and export to YAML.

Convert spreadsheet-based server inventories to Ansible-compatible YAML host files. Columns become host variables, making it easy to manage infrastructure configs in Excel or Google Sheets.

By default, numbers are converted to numeric types and booleans (true/false) are recognized. Disable type parsing to keep all values as quoted strings, useful for preserving leading zeros or special formats.

YAML supports complex nesting, but CSV is inherently flat. You can enable nested output using dot notation (address.city) in column headers to create hierarchical YAML structures.

Auto-detect handles comma, tab (TSV), semicolon, and pipe delimiters. Manual selection available for edge cases. Properly handles quoted fields with embedded delimiters.

CSV fields enclosed in quotes are correctly parsed following RFC 4180 standard. Embedded quotes, commas, and newlines within quoted fields are preserved. YAML output automatically quotes strings with special characters.

Yes. Processing happens entirely in browser memory. Modern browsers handle files up to several hundred MB. For very large datasets (1GB+), consider splitting into smaller files first.

UTF-8 encoding is fully supported. Unicode characters, emojis, and international text are preserved correctly in both CSV parsing and YAML output.

Manage pipeline variables or environment configs in CSV, then convert to YAML for tools like GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, CircleCI, or Jenkins. Easier than editing YAML directly for large variable sets.

Yes. The converter uses the js-yaml library, the industry-standard JavaScript YAML parser. Output is guaranteed to be valid YAML that can be parsed by any YAML 1.2 compliant tool.
