CSV Upload
Polytomic connects a CSV file you upload directly to your data warehouse, databases, and other tools for ETL, without writing code. Save the connection, upload a file, and sync its rows wherever you need them, with no credentials to manage.
Columns and types detected
Polytomic reads the file's header row as columns and infers whether each one holds text, numbers, dates, or true or false values.
Replace a file in place
Upload a new version with the same headers in the same order to refresh the data a sync reads, without rebuilding your model.
Example workflows
Sync a one-off customer list into your data warehouse
What you can sync
CSV Upload reads the file you upload as a single table, with columns and types detected automatically. Sync that data into your data warehouse, a database, or another connected tool.
From CSV Upload
Each uploaded CSV file as its own table
Columns detected automatically from the header row
Field types inferred from values, including numbers, dates, and booleans
Full file reads on every sync
How it works
Save a CSV Upload connection in Polytomic, then upload a CSV file directly from your browser. Polytomic reads the header row as columns and infers each column's type from the values in the file.
Each sync reads the complete file again, not just the rows that changed. Replacing a file keeps its data current for every sync after, as long as the new version keeps the same headers in the same order.
