Frequently asked questions

What delimiter does this support?

The API parses comma-separated values by default. Tab-separated values (TSV) and semicolon-separated values are also detected automatically.

How are quoted fields handled?

Fields enclosed in double quotes are parsed correctly, including fields that contain commas, newlines, or escaped quotes ("") inside them.

What happens if headers is set to false?

Each row is returned as an array of values instead of an object with named keys.

Is there a row limit?

The API processes up to 10,000 rows per request. For larger datasets, split the CSV and make multiple calls.
