Can I connect CSV files and Google Sheets to iDBQuery?
Yes. iDBQuery ingests CSV files and Google Sheets exports, detecting headers and column types automatically so you can ask questions in plain language immediately. Each file becomes a queryable source you can blend with databases, Excel and other files, with every answer cited to its rows.
CSV files and Google Sheets data are easy to bring into iDBQuery. Upload a CSV (or an exported sheet) and iDBQuery reads the headers, infers types, and makes the data queryable right away.
- Instant structure — headers become columns, types are detected automatically, and the file is ready to question in seconds.
- Plain-language to results — ask a question, iDBQuery writes the SQL behind the scenes, runs it, and returns a cited answer.
- Combine sources — a CSV export can be joined with a live database, an Excel workbook, or a REST API in one model.
- Charts, tables and reports — turn any CSV question into a visualization, a live dashboard, or a shareable report.
For Google Sheets, exporting to CSV gives you a clean, portable snapshot that iDBQuery treats like any other tabular source. This is ideal for ad-hoc analysis where the data lives in a flat file rather than a database. You can point iDBQuery at a single CSV or a whole folder of them, and it will build one queryable model across the set. Every figure remains traceable back to the exact source row.
