How does the csv and xlsx validator work?
- 1Select the actual sources
One exact-text CSV, one-sheet XLSX or dataset JSON source.
- 2Freeze the review rules
Check rectangular source structure, exact headings and every declared cell. Report missing fields separately from blank values. Never infer a schema or coerce source values.
- 3Inspect complete findings
Review all source-linked results and unresolved items. Free JSON and CSV preserve complete results.
- 4Keep recoverable work
Browser-local inputs and exact source files survive reload. Restore a validated exact-byte backup ZIP or explicitly approved private cloud revision. Earlier generic workspace keys, original files and historical purchases remain separate and preserved. Download preserved earlier strings and bytes before changing devices.
- 5Prepare the finalized pack
Prepare seven files, then download them free. Review the fictional sample below.
