What does SQL to YAML Converter do?

SQL to YAML Converter turns SQL into YAML indented with two spaces, ready for a config file. Paste your data, press Convert, then copy the result or download it as a file.

What you can use

An INSERT INTO statement with a column list, for example INSERT INTO users (id, name) VALUES (1, 'Asha');

How to use SQL to YAML Converter

  1. Step 1

    Paste your SQL into the input box, or use “Load example” to see the expected shape.

  2. Step 2

    Press Convert. If the input isn’t valid, an error message tells you what is wrong and where.

  3. Step 3

    Copy the YAML output or download it as a file.

Good to know

  • Only the data in INSERT statements is read — CREATE TABLE, SELECT and other statements are ignored. Run your query in your database first if you need its results.
  • Values such as yes, no, on and 007 can be read differently by some YAML tools; quote them if they must stay text.
  • Big inputs (several MB) work, but the browser may pause for a moment while it converts.

Your privacy

Everything happens in this browser tab: what you paste is converted by JavaScript on your device and never sent to our server. Closing the tab clears it. Even so, don’t paste live passwords, API keys or customer records into any website.

Frequently asked questions

Is SQL to YAML Converter free?

Yes. SQL to YAML Converter is completely free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no daily limit.

Is the data I paste sent to a server?

No. Conversion runs in JavaScript inside this browser tab and nothing you paste is sent or stored. Even so, avoid pasting live passwords, API keys or private customer data into any website.

Why do I get an error?

Almost always the input isn’t quite valid: a missing comma or quote in JSON, an unclosed tag in XML, or a tab in YAML. The error message shows where parsing stopped — fix that spot, or press “Load example” to compare with input that works.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. It works in any modern browser on Android, iPhone, tablets and computers — nothing to install.
