I was having a hard time finding the Program Data folder on my local disk, so for others who might be having the same issue here's a solution on Windows that worked for me: Click your disk, click the 3 dots next to view, click options, click view, and then click Show hidden files, folders, and drives. After I did that, the Program Data folder showed up!

Hi! what happens if I have blanks in my CSV file, this is because I still don't have any data to fill in those specific cells, this is going to affect my importing? Thank you!

[@AnalyticsExplorers]

Hi there, yes it may affect your importing if the blanks cells contains unseen characters or spaces as it may be different from the data type you specify for the column. Try to clean your data as much as possible, then when you import your data try to use the update statement to set all blank cells to NULL and everything will be OK. Good luck and inform me with the updates!

Must I clean my data in excel before importing to MySQL

[@AnalyticsExplorers]

Yes of course, cleaning your data is very important to efficient importing to MYSQL. if your create a table with a column that contains dates, and there are some cells that have incorrect date formats. This will raise an error while importing and more errors can happen for different situations. So clean your data as much as you can.

[@muhanadmawasalkazmeh137]

I have a table with 34 columns and 600000 rows. Can I import this data into mysql?

[@AnalyticsExplorers]

You can do something good. you can divide your table into 2 parts, one part contains the columns' titles and few rows and the other part contains the remaining rows. You can use the Table Data import wizard method to quickly import the first small part where MYSQL will define all columns data types by itself "You can watch this method's steps on my Channel by the way". Now you have the table created and its columns are well defined. You can use this video method (LOAD DATA INFILE STATEMENT) to import the second remaining part. Good Luck!

[@new_moon_12]

When I load the data infile, i'm getting this error Error: Data truncated for column 'sales' at row 1 Error Code: WARN_DATA_TRUNCATED How to deal with this? Also, when we save the file in csv format the datatype we changed does not save. How does mysql understand the datatype then?

[@AnalyticsExplorers]

Hello, Your problem can be because you use the actual delimiter of your file inside a certain column of the table. I mean that if you have a csv file (comma separated), the problem will occur if you have a comma inside any column other than the delimiter.

[@new_moon_12]

That helped, I removed the column that contained commas. Thanks a lot. But I have a follow up question now. Say I have a column where there are multiple words separated by comma's (just like in the above case). How can I import or export such a file with such a column through MySQL One thing that I can think of is replacing the commas in the column with hyphen (or some other character). Do we have any better solution in this case?@@AnalyticsExplorers

[@AnalyticsExplorers]

@@new_moon_12 Great question! We surely have another better situation which is to convert the csv file to semi-colon delimited for example. Changing the delimiter will truly solve all your problems. Give it a try and inform me with the updates. Good luck!

[@Gksharma16706]

Please confirm if any columns have blank space then will mysql successfully import data or not Becuase i have 1 million records to import and cant check each column for blank space

[@AnalyticsExplorers]

It depends on the type of the column being imported. If you are importing a string (Varchar) column it won't cause any problems but it can in case of integers for example. You can use excel function to clean the columns before import. For example, you can use the Trim function with numbers or integers to clean up any empty space which is unneeded.

[@zacharybaca6276]

I am working on the Google analystics Case Study, there are over 1million rows in some of the CSV files. When I use MYsql Workbench to upload, this takes several hours. Is that normal?

1 million rows can be very large number indeed, but I guess several hours is a very big. You may divide the file into parts and load every part separately. Make sure to use the load data infile statement or pandas method

What if I have multiple tables? I have a large csv and my database has 9 tables. How do I go about inserting the appropriate data into the right tables?

You have to repeat the process explained in the video for each table until you insert all tables. If you have some tables with few rows, you can use another quick method which is the table data import wizard. You can find its explanation in another video on my channel. During importing, make sure to start by the tables with minimum dependents. For example, if you have 2 tables. One has only a primary key and the other has a primary and foreign key. You must begin by importing the first. Good luck!
