Frequently Asked Questions

Everything about XML field extraction

How does the XML field extractor work?

Upload your XML files, specify which fields to extract, and the tool will parse through all files to find matching elements. You can use simple field names or create advanced conditional rules for complex extraction scenarios.

What's the difference between Simple and Advanced mode?

Simple mode extracts fields by name from anywhere in the XML. Advanced mode allows conditional extraction with rules like 'extract NAME1 where PARTNER_Q equals PARTNER1' for more precise data extraction.

How do parent elements and repetitions work?

Parent elements help organize nested XML structures. When you enable 'Extract all repetitions' for a parent, the tool extracts data from each occurrence of that parent element, creating multiple rows in your CSV.

What file formats are supported?

The tool supports standard XML files (.xml). It handles 6 encodings: UTF-8, Windows-1250, Windows-1252, ISO-8859-2, ISO-8859-1, and UTF-16 with auto-detection from XML declaration. Export formats include CSV with customizable delimiters (comma, semicolon, pipe, or tab), JSON with metadata, and Excel (XLSX).

Is there a file size limit?

Since all processing happens in your browser, the file size limit depends on your device's available memory. The tool is optimized for performance and can handle large XML files, but extremely large files (>100MB) may require more processing time.

Can it handle SAP IDoc XML files?

Yes, the tool is specifically optimized for SAP IDoc XML structures with elements like E1ADRM1, PARTNER_Q, and E1MARAM. It includes preset rules for common SAP extraction scenarios.

Is my data secure?

All XML parsing and field extraction runs locally in the browser using JavaScript. No files are transmitted to any server. Close the tab and all data is released.

Technical Details

How this XML field extractor parses and filters data

XML Parsing Engine

This XML field extractor uses the browser's native DOMParser API for standards-compliant XML parsing. The parser builds a complete DOM tree from input XML, then traverses it using recursive depth-first search to extract matching elements. Processing handles large documents with O(n) traversal complexity. Six encoding formats are auto-detected from the XML declaration: UTF-8, Windows-1250, Windows-1252, ISO-8859-2, ISO-8859-1, and UTF-16.

Field Selection

The XML data extractor supports tag name filtering, hierarchical parent-child path expressions, and nested element extraction up to 3 levels deep. Multiple fields can be selected simultaneously with AND logic. Case-insensitive tag matching ensures compatibility across XML sources with inconsistent naming. The extraction engine preserves element hierarchy and text content for accurate data representation in output formats.

Export Formats

Export extracted XML fields as CSV, JSON, or Excel (XLSX). The XML to CSV converter flattens nested structures into tabular format with configurable column mapping. JSON export preserves the original hierarchy. All format conversions run client-side using lightweight libraries loaded on demand for optimal performance.

Privacy & Processing

All XML parsing and field extraction runs entirely in your browser. No data is uploaded to any server - your XML files stay private. The extract XML fields tool supports drag-and-drop file input, clipboard paste, and direct text entry. Processing statistics track extraction counts and field frequencies via IndexedDB persistence.
