```python
import csv
import sqlite_utils
db = sqlite_utils.Database(""test.db"")
reader = csv.DictReader(open(""csv"", encoding=""utf-16-le"").read().split(""\r\n""), delimiter="";"")
db[""test""].insert_all(reader, pk=""Id"")
```

I used `iconv` to change the encoding; sqlite-utils can import the resulting file, even if it stops at 98 %:

```
sqlite-utils insert --csv test test.db clean

Thanks :)
 
> I considered trying to make this automatic - so it detects columns that appear to contain valid JSON and outputs them as nested objects - but the problem with that is that it can lead to inconsistent results - you might hit the API and find that not every column contains valid JSON (compared to the previous day) resulting in the API retuning string instead of the expected dictionary and breaking your code.

If a developer is not sure if the JSON fields are valid, but then retrieves and parse them, it should handle errors too. Handling inconsistent data is necessary due to the nature of SQLite. A global or dataset option to render the data as they have been defined (JSON, boolean, etc.) when requesting JSON could allow the user to download a regular JSON from the browser without having to rely on APIs. I would guess someone could just make a custom template with an extra JSON-parsed download button otherwise :)","{""total_count"": 1, ""+1"": 1, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",919508498,JSON export dumps JSON fields as TEXT,

At the beginning, I just call `sqlite-utils insert ""$db"" ""$table"" ""$jsonfile""` to create the database. sqlite-utils convert JSON values into `TEXT`, when it tries to determine the schema automatically. I then try to transform the table to set `JSON` as type:

```
sqlite-utils transform species.sqlite species --type criteria json
