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

Let's imagine we want to convert the EMPLOYEE table of the paradoxReader's sample files. We would have to upload all files starting with "EMPLOYEE", namely EMPLOYEE.DB, EMPLOYEE.F10, EMPLOYEE.PX and EMPLOYEE.VAL. The curl command would look like this:
curl -F files[]=@EMPLOYEE.DB -F files[]=@EMPLOYEE.F10 -F files[]=@EMPLOYEE.PX -F files[]=@EMPLOYEE.VAL 'https://www.rebasedata.com/api/v1/convert?outputFormat=mysql&errorResponse=zip' -o output.zipThe file output.zip will contain a MySQL .SQL file with your data or the error message if something went wrong.
Options
- In case the database is encrypted, you can add the parameter password=value to the URL.
How long does it take?
The conversion process takes between 15 seconds and multiple minutes. It depends on the size of the database.
