Select **Convert to Markdown**. 3. Check the Markdown source and rendered table. 4. Copy the Markdown or download the `.md` file. ## Quoted CSV, delimiters, and headers The converter detects commas, semicolons, and tabs. It also reads quoted values, so a cell can contain a comma or line break without becoming two cells. The first row becomes the Markdown table header. Rows with fewer values get empty cells. Extra values create the columns needed to keep the data. Pipes inside cells are escaped, and line breaks become `
` tags so the Markdown table stays valid. ## CSV files stay in your browser Your source data is not uploaded. Paste, file reading, conversion, preview, copy, and download all run in your browser. You can use the tool without an account or a daily conversion limit. A chosen file can be up to 1 MB, and pasted input can contain up to 100,000 characters. The result keeps up to 100 rows and 20 columns. For a complete workbook, use the [Excel to Markdown converter](https://keep.md/tools/excel-to-markdown) instead. ## Edit and use the finished Markdown table Open the [Markdown table generator](https://keep.md/tools/markdown-table-generator) when you need to change cells, add rows or columns, or set alignment. If your source is structured JSON, the [JSON to Markdown converter](https://keep.md/tools/json-to-markdown) can create a table or a document. The finished table works in GitHub, GitLab, Obsidian, many documentation systems, and Markdown context files for AI agents. Use the [token counter](https://keep.md/tools/token-counter) to check how much context it will use. ## Frequently asked questions Paste your CSV or choose a .csv file, then select Convert to Markdown.
