Upload CSV Files to Wobby

CSV upload is a quick way to try out Wobby with your own data. This is great for demos, prototypes, or testing, but it is not meant as a long-term or production data source.

For live, trusted analysis, we strongly recommend connecting to your real data warehouse (e.g. Snowflake, BigQuery, etc.).


1. Prepare Your CSV File

Make sure your CSV file is clean, well-structured, and encoded in a way Wobby can understand.

✅ Format Requirements:
- File must end in `.csv`
- Encoding must be UTF-8
- Use commas as delimiters
- First row should contain column headers

💡 Best Practices:

  • Use clear and consistent column names (avoid special characters)

  • Ensure consistent formats (e.g. dates, numbers)

  • Remove any blank rows or columns

  • Clean up missing values if needed


2. Upload the File in Wobby

  1. Go to Wobby → Data Sources.

  2. Click Upload CSV.

  3. Drag and drop your .csv file(s).

  4. Click Upload files to confirm.

📂 You can upload up to 3 files at once, each up to 500MB in size.


3. Working with Multiple Files

If your data is relational (e.g. customers and orders), upload each table as a separate CSV. This makes it easier for Wobby to understand relationships between tables.

Example:

  • customers.csv – Customer info

  • orders.csv – Order details

  • products.csv – Product catalog


4. Important Notes

  • ❌ Do not upload Excel files (.xlsx or .xls). Always convert to CSV first.

  • ❌ Avoid formatting, formulas, merged cells, or macros.

  • ❌ Avoid special characters in column names or multiple header rows.

⚠️ Reminder: CSV upload is ideal for testing and exploration only. Wobby is designed for live connections to databases or warehouses. If you need to keep your data up to date, switch to a proper integration.


That’s It!

Your file is now ready to be used by Wobby’s AI agents. You'll be able to ask questions, explore patterns, and visualize data immediately.
