What is Excel to XML Converter?

This tool converts spreadsheet data (Excel .xlsx, CSV, or TSV) to XML. Each row becomes an XML element and each column becomes a child element. The first row can optionally be used as element names.

How to Use Excel to XML Converter

Upload an .xlsx file or paste TSV/CSV data into the input.

Set root and row element names.

Choose whether the first row contains column names.

Toggle XML declaration and pretty print.

Copy or download the XML output.

Common Use Cases

Converting Excel config tables to XML for application consumption.
Migrating spreadsheet data to XML-based systems.
Generating XML test fixtures from tabular data.
Producing XML exports from CSV reports.

Example Input and Output

A two-row spreadsheet becomes a structured XML document.

TSV/CSV input

name	age
city: London
Alice	30

XML output

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<root>
  <row>
    <name>Alice</name>

Tip

For multi-sheet .xlsx files, a sheet selector appears after upload so you can convert any sheet independently.

Frequently Asked Questions

What file formats are supported?

Upload .xlsx files or paste CSV, TSV, or any tab/comma-delimited text. Multi-sheet .xlsx files are supported.

How are column names determined?

When "Use first row as column names" is enabled, the first row values become XML element names. Invalid XML name characters are replaced with underscores.

Is my spreadsheet data sent to a server?

No. All parsing and XML generation happen entirely in your browser.
