What is XML?
XML (Extensible Markup Language) is a structured data format widely used for data exchange between systems, configuration files, SOAP APIs, and document storage. Converting CSV to XML wraps your tabular data in a hierarchical tag-based structure.
When to convert?
Convert CSV to XML when you need to feed data into XML-based systems, create configuration files, prepare data for SOAP web services, or integrate with legacy enterprise systems that require XML input.
