What Convert CSV to XML can do:

Convert CSV to XML transforms tabular CSV data into structured XML. You can decide whether to use column headers as XML tags or stick with generic names. It handles special characters, wraps each row in the tag of your choice, and shows the result instantly. It’s ideal for data migration, XML import generation, or transforming spreadsheet data into a format readable by other systems.

Example:

CSV Input:

name,age
Alice,30
Bob,25

XML Output:

<root>
  <row>
    <name>Alice</name>
    <age>30</age>
  </row>
  <row>
    <name>Bob</name>
    <age>25</age>
  </row>
</root>

Common Use Cases:

Use Convert CSV to XML to quickly prepare data for XML-based APIs, convert spreadsheet exports into machine-readable markup, or generate dummy XML documents for testing. It’s fast, client-side, and highly configurable.

Useful Tools & Suggestions:

Before converting, it helps to run Analyze CSV to check for weird formatting or missing headers. Then after the switch, use Highlight XML Syntax to make the new structure easier to scan or debug.
