CSV Inspector: Guide

Intent
CSV inspector online for troubleshooting import errors: detect delimiter, count columns, and find broken rows in pasted CSV data (local-only, no uploads).
What it does
Bundles three mini tools (column count, delimiter detector, broken-row check) into one UI for fast CSV troubleshooting.
Key features
3 CSV diagnostics in one, Instant results, Local-only processing
Privacy
Everything runs locally in your browser. No uploads.
Best for
  • Developers debugging CSV import failures and mysterious parsing errors
  • Analysts who received a broken CSV and need a quick sanity check
  • Anyone searching 'CSV inspector', 'CSV delimiter detector', or 'CSV broken rows'
Why this tool
  • Three checks in one place so you do not bounce between tools
  • Local-only: paste CSV safely without uploading files
  • Fast signals (delimiter guess, expected columns, broken rows) before deeper cleanup

How to use

  1. 1Choose the tool: Column count, Delimiter detector, or Broken CSV check.
  2. 2Paste your CSV text (header + a few rows is often enough).
  3. 3Click Analyze CSV to get results.
  4. 4Switch tools as needed without re-pasting the input.

Common mistakes

  • This is a lightweight inspector (it does not fully parse quoted CSV like Excel does).
  • Delimiter detection uses only the first line, which may not be representative.
  • Column checks assume commas when counting columns and broken rows.

Examples

Quick import troubleshooting
1) Delimiter detector -> guess separator 2) Broken CSV check -> find inconsistent rows 3) Column count -> confirm expected columns
Sanity-check an export
Paste first ~50 lines Confirm: rows look right and no broken lines.
