CSV to Markdown
CSV text into a Markdown table. Delimiter auto-detected (<code>,</code> <code>;</code> <code>|</code> <code>\t</code>).
POST
/v1/convert/csv-to-markdown Customer supplies CSV text as a string (no base64 needed — CSV is plain text). Delimiter auto-detected from the first 8KB by Python's csv.Sniffer; override with the delimiter parameter. First row is treated as the header. Cells containing pipes are escaped; cells with newlines are flattened. Caps at max_rows (default 5000) — past that, a Markdown table stops being useful.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| csv_text | string | yes | — | Raw CSV text. Up to 1 MB. |
| delimiter | string | no | — | Override auto-detect. Single character. Default: auto. |
| max_rows | integer | no | 5000 | Cap on output rows. Range 1-50000. |
