Frequently Asked Questions

How are column names with spaces handled in XML?

XML tag names cannot contain spaces or certain special characters. Our engine automatically sanitizes headers (for example, "First Name" becomes "first_name") to produce strictly valid XML.

Can this tool generate XML attributes instead of child elements?

Yes. You can switch the Output Style from Child Elements to XML Attributes, generating compact records like <row id="101" name="Alice" />.

Is my data sent to any remote server?

No. The entire conversion process executes locally in your browser memory. No data is stored, logged, or transmitted across the network.
