How do you split a CSV into fields?

Splitting a CSV row into one field per line answers the question a wall of commas cannot: which column is which. Select comma, semicolon, tab or pipe as the delimiter; quoted fields are respected, so “Portland, OR” stays whole instead of splitting in the middle. Records are separated by blank lines in the output. Your rows never travel further than the browser tab they are pasted into.

How to use the Split CSV

  1. 1 Give the splitter your CSV records.
  2. 2 Match the delimiter control to your file: comma, semicolon, tab or pipe.
  3. 3 Each field prints on its own line, blank lines dividing records.
  4. 4 Copy whichever fields you need.

What you can use it for

  • Inspecting exactly how a row splits into columns.
  • Pulling a single row apart into a vertical list.
  • Debugging a CSV whose delimiter is unclear.
  • Counting the fields in a record.

Frequently asked questions

How do I tell one record from the next?
A blank line sits between records in the output; within a record, each field occupies one line in column order.
Is a comma inside quotes a split point?
No. Quoted fields are parsed the way a CSV reader parses them, so the delimiter only splits where it acts as a separator.
Which separators does the picker offer?
Comma, semicolon, tab and pipe, which covers standard CSV, European exports, TSV and pipe-delimited logs.
