Frequently Asked Questions
How is deep XML structure handled?
Nested data is flattened using dot notation in column names. For example,
<person><address><city> becomes the column "address.city".What happens with repeated elements at different levels?
Each unique path becomes a separate column. Repeated elements at the same level generate multiple rows.
Does it work with large XML files?
Processing happens in your browser, so it works well with moderate-sized files. For very large files (over 10MB), consider using desktop tools.
Can I select which elements to convert?
This tool converts all XML content. If you need to select specific elements, first extract the desired section from your XML.
