TableToSlack

Share a SQL query result in Slack

Query results pasted from a terminal lose their alignment in Slack. Paste MySQL or psql output, box-drawing tables or space-aligned CLI output (docker, kubectl…) and get a proper table.

    SQL result to Slack: FAQ

    Which SQL clients are supported?

    MySQL / MariaDB (+---+ borders), PostgreSQL psql, SQLite box mode, DuckDB and any tool printing pipe or box-drawing tables.

    Can I paste docker or kubectl output?

    Yes. Columns aligned with spaces are detected; you can also force “Space-aligned columns” in the format list.

    How do I make a table in Slack?

    Slack displays a table when you paste tab-separated values (TSV), the format spreadsheets put in the clipboard. Paste your data in TableToSlack, click “Copy for Slack” and paste in your message: Slack shows a proper table.

    Why does my Markdown or CSV table look broken in Slack?

    Slack does not support Markdown tables, and pasted CSV stays plain text. Only tab-separated content becomes a table. TableToSlack converts your table to that format.

    Is my data sent to a server?

    No. All the conversion happens in your browser with JavaScript. Nothing is uploaded or stored, and the site has no analytics.
