What Is an XML to Excel Converter?
An XML to Excel converter reads structured XML data — typically a list of repeated elements like <product> or <order> — and turns each element into a row in a spreadsheet. Every child tag becomes a column. The result is a clean .xlsx file you can open directly in Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, or LibreOffice Calc — no scripting needed.
How to Use
Paste or upload your XML
Type or paste XML into the left editor, or click Upload to load a .xml file from your computer. You can also click Sample to try it with example data.
Preview the table
The right panel shows a tab-separated preview of the rows and columns. This is exactly what will be written to the Excel file.
Download your Excel file
Click Download .xlsx to save the file. Open it in Excel or Google Sheets and the data is already organized into rows and columns.
Example
Converting a product catalog
The converter produces an Excel file with columns: id, name, category, price, stock — and one row per product.
Frequently Asked Questions
What XML structure works best?
The converter works best with a flat list of repeated sibling elements under one root — for example <products><product>...</product></product></products>. Each child tag inside the repeated element becomes a column. Deeply nested XML may be flattened or serialized as JSON strings in the cells.
Does it handle XML attributes?
Attributes are parsed and included where possible. If an element has both text content and attributes, the text content is used as the cell value. For complex attribute-heavy XML, consider converting to JSON first and then using the JSON to Excel converter.
Is the data processed on my computer or sent to a server?
Everything runs in your browser using JavaScript. No data is uploaded to any server. Your XML stays on your machine — ideal for sensitive or confidential data.
What is the file size limit?
There is no enforced limit, but very large files (tens of thousands of rows) may be slow to process in-browser. For bulk ETL work with huge XML files, a server-side tool or a library like SheetJS running in Node.js would be faster.
Can I open the downloaded file in Google Sheets?
Yes. Go to Google Sheets, click File → Import, and select the downloaded .xlsx file. Google Sheets will open it immediately.
