How the conversion works

Paste your HTML Table on the left and press Convert. The tool first parses the HTML Table (reading the first

element and using its th cells as column names) into an internal table of rows and columns, then writes it out as YAML (emitting clean block-style YAML). If the input cannot be parsed you get a plain-English error instead of a broken file.

Where this comes in handy

People reach for this converter when reusing tables copied from web pages or documentation and YAML is needed for configs or fixtures. Because everything runs locally in your browser, it is also handy for quick one-off migrations without installing database tools or writing throwaway scripts.

HTML Table to YAML FAQs

Which table is converted if my paste has several?
The first <table> element in your paste is used. To convert a different one, paste only that table's HTML source.
What happens to merged cells with colspan or rowspan?
Merged cells are read as the plain text of each td or th in row order. The spanned layout is not reconstructed, so check that the column count looks right.
Are tricky values quoted?
Yes. Strings that look like numbers or booleans, such as 123 or yes, are quoted so they round-trip as strings.
Can the YAML be used as a config file?
Yes. The output is a plain YAML list of maps, suitable for config files, fixtures and seed data.
Is my data uploaded anywhere?
No. Parsing and conversion run entirely in your browser with JavaScript. Your data never leaves your device.
