Streamline Data Transformation in .NET with TXT to CSV Conversion

Structured data plays a crucial role in reporting, automation, and database functions; however, numerous applications still depend on raw text files. When developers require a clean CSV format for enhanced accessibility, the GroupDocs.Conversion Cloud .NET SDK offers a straightforward method to convert TXT files to CSV using a completely managed Cloud REST API.

The SDK allows developers to transform plain text into a structured columnar CSV format effortlessly. You merely need to upload the TXT file, select CSV as your desired output format, and the Cloud API processes everything effectively. There is no requirement to manually parse or rearrange the data—this task is managed by the conversion engine itself.

This solution is perfect for .NET applications that pertain to data extraction, workflow automation, document processing, or integration with reporting and analytics systems. With its scalability, improved performance, and minimal setup needs, developers can concentrate on delivering value without the hassle of conversion logic or significant dependencies.

If you want to streamline data operations within your .NET framework, check out the complete guide by following this link. It assists you in simplifying TXT to CSV conversion in C#, allowing teams to transition from raw text to structured data swiftly and accurately.

Code example:

using System;
using System.IO;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Cloud.Sdk.Api;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Cloud.Sdk.Client;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Cloud.Sdk.Model;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Cloud.Sdk.Model.Requests;

namespace TXTtoCSVConversion
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {

            // Configure API credentials
            string MyAppKey = "your-app-key";
            string MyAppSecret = "your-app-secret";

            var config = new Configuration(MyAppKey, MyAppSecret);
            var convertApi = new ConvertApi(config);

            // Upload a local TXT file to cloud storage 
            string localFilePath = @"C:\Example Files\source.txt";
            using (var stream = File.OpenRead(localFilePath))
            {
                var fileApi = new FileApi(config);
                fileApi.UploadFile(new UploadFileRequest("source.txt", stream));
            }

            // Prepare conversion settings
            var convertSettings = new ConvertSettings
            {
                FilePath = "source.txt", // Uploaded source file in cloud storage
                Format = "csv", // Set output format to CSV
                OutputPath = "conversion/converted.csv",
            };

            try
            {
                // Perform TXT to CSV conversion
                var request = new ConvertDocumentRequest(convertSettings);
                var response = convertApi.ConvertDocument(request);

                Console.WriteLine(response != null
                    ? "TXT to CSV conversion was successful!"
                    : "TXT to CSV conversion failed.");
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("An error occurred: " + ex.Message);
            }
