Excel to XML Converter for XLSX, XLS, and CSV Files
Convert an Excel (.xlsx or .xls) workbook or a CSV file into XML in your browser. Choose a worksheet, indicate whether the first row contains headers, and name the root and row elements. When headers are used, they become child element tags sanitized to valid XML names; cell values are XML-escaped. SheetJS is loaded lazily.
This Excel to XML converter turns Excel workbooks and CSV files into XML in your browser. It supports .xlsx and .xls files, lets you select a worksheet, and provides controls for the header row and the names of the root and row elements. SheetJS is loaded lazily to support spreadsheet processing.
During conversion, column headers become child element tags when the header row is enabled. Header names are sanitized to produce valid XML names, and cell values are XML-escaped. The selected root and row names define the elements used to organize the converted data. These rules help turn rows and columns into a readable XML structure.
Excel workbooks and CSV files organize information in rows and columns, while XML represents information with nested, named elements. Converting a spreadsheet to XML can help when a workflow expects XML input or when you need a structured representation of tabular data. You can choose a worksheet and set element names to suit your conversion needs.
The conversion runs entirely in your browser: your file is processed on your device, and no data is sent to a server. After the page has loaded, the tool works offline. This makes it useful for developers and DevOps engineers handling routine conversions, as well as anyone who wants a browser-based way to create XML from spreadsheet data.
Step 1: Upload an Excel (.xlsx or .xls) workbook or a CSV file. The tool converts your tabular data into XML.
Step 2: Choose the worksheet you want to convert when working with an Excel workbook. This lets you focus the output on the relevant sheet.
Step 3: Set whether the first row contains headers. If headers are used, they become child element tags in the XML.
Step 4: Choose the root and row element names. These options control the element names used to organize the converted rows.
Step 5: Review and copy the XML result. Values are XML-escaped, and header names are sanitized to valid XML names.
Use case: Convert a spreadsheet to XML for a workflow or system that accepts XML, without installing a local conversion tool.
Use case: Handle a routine Excel to XML conversion from whichever machine you are using. The browser-based workflow keeps the task accessible without a local setup.
Use case: Convert internal spreadsheet data without uploading it to a third-party service. Processing stays in your browser.
Use case: Export one worksheet from a multi-sheet Excel workbook by selecting the sheet you need before conversion.
Use case: Turn a CSV file into XML when a process expects structured XML rather than comma-separated rows.
Use case: Set root and row element names to make the XML structure better suited to the format expected by your next step.
