Frequently Asked Questions

How does SQL to YAML conversion work?

The converter parses SQL INSERT statements and transforms each row into a YAML mapping. Column names become keys, and values are properly formatted according to YAML syntax.

What SQL syntax is supported?

Standard INSERT INTO statements with explicit column names are supported. Multiple INSERT statements and multiple value groups are combined into a single YAML array.

Why convert SQL to YAML?

YAML is commonly used for configuration files and data serialization. Converting SQL data to YAML makes it easy to use in DevOps tools, Kubernetes configs, or any application that reads YAML.

Is my data secure?

Yes, all conversion happens directly in your browser. Your SQL data is never sent to any server or stored anywhere.
