XLSX to XML Converter

Kept

• Every row of the first sheet inside a single <root> element
• Column headers as tag names, with spaces and symbols replaced by underscores so the XML stays valid
• Special characters such as &, < and > escaped correctly
• Dates as readable text, for example 2026-01-15

Good to know

• Only the first sheet is converted. If your workbook has several sheets, move the one you need to the front in Excel first, or convert to JSON, which keeps every sheet.
• The structure is always <root><row>…</row></root>. If your system expects a specific schema or tag names, you will need to map them afterwards.
• A header that starts with a digit gets an underscore in front, because XML tag names cannot start with a number.
• Formulas become their last calculated value; formatting, charts and images are dropped.
