Convert MSSQL to Excel online

Input file

The API accepts MSSQL files as input. This can be a MSSQL script file with the extension .SQL, a MSSQL database file with the extension .MDF or a MSSQL backup file with the extension .BAK.

Max file size for web uploads: 50 GB

Output file

The API will return a ZIP archive of .XLSX files, one for each table in the given database file. Since Excel has a limit of about one million rows, it could be that the rows are divided into several files.

Conversion methods

Using our Java tool

Download the RebaseData client Java tool . To convert your database using RebaseData, run the following command: 

                    java -jar client-0.0.5.jar convert --output-format=xlsx file.sql/mdf/bak output-dir/
Using CURL

Replace file.sql/mdf/bak with the path to the database you want to convert.
The file output.zip will contain a Excel file, one for each table in the given database file. If something went wrong, output.zip contains the error message. 

curl -F 'files[]=@file.sql/mdf/bak' 'https://www.rebasedata.com/api/v1/convert?outputFormat=xlsx&errorResponse=zip' -o output.zip

How long does it take?

The conversion process takes between 15 seconds and multiple minutes. It depends on the size of the database.
