Frequently Asked Questions
Where is the row number column added in the Parquet file?
It is added as the first column. You can rename it to anything you like before downloading.
What number does the row index start from?
You can set the starting number — the default is 1. Set it to 0 if your downstream system expects zero-based indices.
Does adding row numbers to a Parquet file affect existing data?
No. All existing columns and their values are preserved unchanged. Only the new index column is added.
Is my data private?
Yes — completely. Your file is never uploaded to any server. Everything runs locally in your browser using WebAssembly — processing happens entirely inside your tab. Once you close the tab, nothing is retained.
What is the maximum file size?
The free limit is 50 MB. For larger files, performance depends on your device's available memory — most modern machines handle 500 MB to 1 GB comfortably.
