In our work, we often need to import Excel data into PostgreSQL for data analysis and processing. Usually we use database tools like Navicat or the Excel import function in the editor that comes with the database to manually import it. However, it is not easy for both professional and non-professional data processing personnel to correctly import an Excel file into a database.
Now, through years of practice, we have solved various problems through the DiLu Converter tool, achieving one-click import of Excel into the PostgreSQL .

Common Problems of Manually Importing Excel to PostgreSQL

1. The actual length of the data exceeds the set length of the data type and cannot be imported
2. Too many columns in Excel cannot create a table The encoding format of the 3.csv file is incorrect, resulting in failure to import or importing messy code
3. The Excel header contains special characters and cannot be created
4. The file is too large, and manual import causes memory overflow or slow import
5. Too many files, too many manual import steps, very cumbersome
6. Excel does not have a header or multilevel header Manual import cannot handle it
7. The table name or field name exceeds the database limit and cannot be created
8. Blank cells, empty spaces at the beginning and end of data, duplicate data, missing data, data replacement, etc. Manual import cannot handle these situations 。。。
