SQL to XML Converter

SQL and XML are both common formats in data workflows, but they are used for very different systems. This SQL to XML Converter transforms SQL INSERT statement data into clean XML so you can reuse records in integrations, tests, and migration pipelines without manual rewriting. For SQL to HTML, try the SQL to HTML Converter.

How this converter works

Paste an INSERT INTO ... VALUES query, and the tool extracts table name, columns, and row values. It then generates a structured XML document where each SQL row becomes a <row> element and each column is mapped to its own child tag.

Why convert SQL to XML?

Converting SQL to XML is useful when importing relational data into XML-based systems, preparing fixture files, or debugging data transformations. It can also help compare source data and destination payloads in API and ETL workflows. Pretty-print your XML output with the XML Pretty Print tool, or convert SQL to YAML with the SQL to YAML Converter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which SQL syntax is supported?

This tool supports INSERT statements with explicit column lists and one or more value tuples. Example: INSERT INTO users (id, name) VALUES (1, 'Alice'), (2, 'Bob');

Does it preserve NULL and boolean values?

Yes. NULL values become empty XML elements, and true/false values are preserved as lowercase text.

Is my SQL uploaded to a server?

No. Conversion runs in your browser, which keeps your SQL data local to your session.
