Frequently Asked Questions
How does XML to CSV conversion work?
XML is first parsed and validated, then converted to JSON format, and finally transformed to CSV. This two-step process ensures proper structure flattening and data preservation.
How are nested XML elements handled?
Nested XML elements are flattened using dot notation. For example, <user><name>John</name><address><city>NYC</city></address></user> becomes columns "user.name" and "user.address.city".
What happens to XML attributes?
XML attributes are converted to CSV columns with an @ prefix. For example, <user id="123" name="John"> creates columns "@id" and "@name" in the CSV output.
How are repeated XML elements processed?
Repeated XML elements (like multiple <item> tags) are converted to separate CSV rows, with each occurrence becoming a new row while maintaining the parent structure context.
Is the CSV compatible with Excel and Google Sheets?
Yes! The output uses PapaParse library for professional CSV generation with proper escaping, UTF-8 encoding, and full compatibility with Excel, Google Sheets, and all spreadsheet applications.
What about complex XML structures?
Complex XML with deep nesting, mixed content, and multiple namespaces is intelligently processed. The converter handles enterprise XML, SOAP responses, and data exports from various systems.
Can I preview the CSV structure before downloading?
The converter processes your XML and immediately provides the CSV for download. You can open the CSV in any spreadsheet application to inspect the flattened structure and data organization.
How large XML files can I convert?
