# from ini
Converts ini data into table. Use this when nushell cannot determine the input file extension.
## Example
Let's say we have the following `.txt` file :
```shell
> open sample.txt
[SectionOne]
key = value
integer = 1234
string1 = 'Case 1'
```
This file is actually a ini file, but the file extension isn't `.ini`. That's okay, we can use the `from ini` command :
```shell
> open sample.txt | from ini | get SectionOne
━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━┯━━━━━━━━━━
key │ integer │ string1
───────┼─────────┼──────────
value │ 1234'Case 1'
━━━━━━━┷━━━━━━━━━┷━━━━━━━━━━
```
