What is CSV ?

CSV, or Comma-Separated Values, is a simple file format used to store tabular data in plain text. Each line in a CSV file corresponds to a row in the table, and each value within that line is separated by a comma, making it easy to import and export data between different programs.

What is TSV ?

TSV, or Tab-Separated Values, is a simple text format used to store data in a structured way, where each line represents a data record and fields within that record are separated by tabs. It is commonly used for data exchange between applications and to import/export data in a wide range of software programs.

Why Convert CSV to TSV file?

CSV and TSV are both plain-text formats for storing data in rows, differing only in the separator: CSV uses commas between values, while TSV uses tabs. Converting CSV to TSV is useful when a program, database, or import tool specifically expects tab-separated values, which some systems prefer because tabs are less likely to clash with the data itself.

Both formats are lightweight and open in virtually any program, but certain tools assume one or the other. The conversion simply swaps the commas for tab separators while keeping all your data intact. When a tool or workflow asks for TSV, this conversion gives you exactly that, ready to import wherever tab-separated data is expected.
