Syncing data between various SaaS applications can be challenging, particularly when these apps do not share a common database. To address this, data can be integrated via API or transferred in universally accepted formats like CSV, which offers benefits such as open format accessibility, plain-text simplicity, and data integrity over Excel. The text provides a tutorial on exporting SQL database data to CSV using three methods: SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), the sqlcmd command line utility, and the n8n automation tool. SSMS allows manual data transfer or SQL queries using the SQL Server Import and Export Wizard, while sqlcmd offers a command line alternative for those who prefer to avoid traditional interfaces, allowing data exports via SQL queries with specific options to refine the output. The n8n tool offers a low-code automation approach, enabling automatic and routine data exports from SQL to CSV without manual intervention, showcasing the flexibility of integrating SQL with other systems or workflows.
