CSV Diff — Compare Two CSV Files
Paste two CSV files side by side and see which rows were added, removed or changed, instead of scanning two spreadsheets by eye.
How to use
- Paste the first CSV into panel A.
- Paste the second into panel B.
- Read which rows were added, removed or changed.
Frequently asked questions
Does row order matter?
Rows are matched on content, so a file that was merely re-sorted does not show up as every row changed.
What if the columns differ between files?
Header differences are reported separately from row differences, so you can see a renamed or added column rather than a wall of false changes.
Can it compare large files?
Both files are held in the page, so a few thousand rows is comfortable. Very large exports are better diffed with a command line tool.
Why not just use a text diff?
Because a text diff reports a line as changed without saying which field moved. Comparing as data tells you the column, which is what you actually need.
