About CSV and XML

CSV is a plain-text table where values are separated by commas (or semicolons). Every spreadsheet and database can import it.

XML is a tag-based format used by feeds, invoices, sitemaps and many older business systems.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert CSV to XML?

Paste your CSV data into the Input box or open a file. The XML result appears instantly on the right — copy it or click Download.

Is my data uploaded anywhere?

No. FileCrafty converts the data inside your browser, so customer lists, exports and API keys never leave your device. It also works offline once the page is open.

What happens to the first row?

By default the first row is used as column names, so each row becomes an object with those keys. Turn off “First row contains column names” to get plain arrays instead.

My CSV uses semicolons. Does that work?

Yes. The separator — comma, semicolon, tab or pipe — is detected automatically, and you can also choose it in Settings. Quoted values with commas or line breaks are handled correctly.

How are XML attributes and repeated elements handled?

Attributes become keys starting with “@”, element text next to child elements becomes “#text”, and elements that repeat (such as several <book> items) become a list. The same rules are used in reverse when creating XML.

Is there a size limit?

There is no fixed limit — files of tens of megabytes work fine on a computer. Very large files are not shown in the text box, but they are still converted in full.

Is it free?

Yes — free, unlimited and without sign-up.
