Converter

Convert in 3 Easy Steps

Converting using our tool is simple:

  1. Copy and paste or upload your input data
  2. Click the "Convert" button to transform
  3. Download the converted file

Why Convert?

Here are common reasons for converting the format:

  • Import XML data into spreadsheet software like Excel
  • Open and edit XML data in a table view instead of raw XML
  • Convert XML to a format for data analysis and visualization
  • Extract and transform XML data for migration and interchange
  • Query and process XML data using CSV tools and libraries
  • Load XML data into databases and applications that accept CSV

CSV provides a simple tabular format that is compatible with many systems. Converting XML to CSV unlocks broader capabilities.

Our easy-to-use converter enables anyone to quickly convert datasets, files, and documents into portable format right in the browser.


Transforming XML Elements and Attributes to CSV

Our converter maps XML tag elements and attributes to columns and rows in the resulting CSV output:
  • XML element names become column headers in the CSV
  • Element values within each row become cell values
  • Attribute names also get added as column headers
  • Attribute values become part of the cell data

This allows the hierarchical structure to be represented in tabular format. The converter handles all the complexity behind the scenes - your data just needs to be valid.


Downloading the Converted File

Once the conversion completes, the converted CSV data can be downloaded as a file. Its contents will appear with:

  • Column headers derived from XML elements/attributes
  • Each XML tag converted to a row of CSV data
  • Cell values populated from tag text and attributes

The downloaded file can then be opened in any spreadsheet app like Excel for further analysis and reporting.


Advanced Usage and Options

Our converter tool also supports:

  • Partial conversions by XPath to only output certain elements
  • Controlling CSV delimiter and line ending characters
  • Defining a custom element to use for row output
  • Outputting attributes as separate elements or alongside values
  • Handling XML namespaces to prevent malformed CSV

We provide many options to customize the CSV output as needed for advanced use cases.
