How it works What the Combine Two Lists Side by Side tool does

Joins line 1 of your list with line 1 of the second list, line 2 with line 2, and so on — “old | new” pairs for redirects, keyword | URL mappings, or two columns for a spreadsheet.

Joins line 1 of your list with line 1 of the second list, line 2 with line 2, and so on, with a separator of your choice between them. It is the quickest way to build “old | new” redirect pairs or two-column data from two separate lists.

If one list is longer, its extra lines are paired with nothing so you can see what is missing.

  2. Check the settings and adjust them to your job — the result updates as you type.
