Check CSV delimiters before importing

A file may use commas, semicolons, or another separator despite its extension. Incorrect parsing can place an entire row into one field.

Directoryz editorial guide · Updated September 7, 2026

Put it into practice

Inspect the header and a few rows in a text editor. Export with the delimiter supported by the import workflow and verify quoted fields.

Worked example · illustrative

What this looks like

A description containing a comma should remain one field when properly quoted, rather than shifting the website URL into another column.

Before you move on

Do all sample rows have the expected number of fields?

Write down the evidence for your answer. If you cannot point to a concrete example, revise the work before treating it as ready.

A repeatable workflow

  1. Keep an untouched source copy.
  2. Test changes on a small sample.
  3. Compare imported records with the original data.

Where Directoryz fits

Directoryz supports directory publishing, listings and custom fields, CSV imports, submission review, and workspace operations. These guides include editorial workflows you can carry out with a worksheet or your own tools. They do not imply that every audit, reminder, verification, or integration is automated by Directoryz.
