XML to CSV ​

Extract repeating elements from an XML file into a flat CSV table. The tool automatically finds the first array of objects in the XML tree and maps each element to a row.

API Endpoint ​

POST /api/v1/tools/xml-to-csv

Accepts multipart form data with an XML file. No settings field is required.

Parameters ​

This tool has no configurable parameters. The repeating element is auto-detected from the XML structure.

Example Request ​

bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:1349/api/v1/tools/xml-to-csv \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer si_your-api-key" \
  -F "[email protected]"

Example Response ​

json
{
  "jobId": "a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890",
  "downloadUrl": "/api/v1/download/a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890/catalog.csv",
  "originalSize": 4500,
  "processedSize": 1800
}

Notes ​

  • Only .xml files are accepted as input.
  • The tool scans the XML tree for the first repeating set of sibling elements and uses those as rows.
  • Each unique child element or attribute name becomes a CSV column header.
  • This is a one-way conversion. For bidirectional JSON/XML conversion, use the JSON to XML tool.
