FAQ
- How do I convert a Parquet file to TSV format online?
- Upload or drag your .parquet file into the converter. Preview the data, optionally filter with SQL, then click 'Export TSV' to download the tab-separated file instantly.
- What is the difference between TSV and CSV?
- TSV uses tab characters (\t) as delimiters instead of commas. This is useful when your data contains many commas, as tabs are less common in text data and reduce the need for quoting.
- Where is my Parquet data processed during TSV conversion?
- All conversion happens locally in your browser via WebAssembly. Your Parquet file is never uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy.
- Can I use SQL to filter data before exporting to TSV?
- Yes. Use the built-in SQL editor to filter rows, select specific columns, or transform data with WHERE, SELECT, and other SQL clauses before exporting to TSV.
- How are special characters handled in TSV export?
- Tab characters within data values are escaped, and newlines are properly quoted. The converter follows TSV standards to ensure data integrity and compatibility with TSV-reading tools.
