Convert XML to TOML - Complete Guide

Step 1

Input Your XML Configuration

Get your XML configuration ready. You have several convenient options:

Paste directly: Copy XML from Spring Boot, Maven, or enterprise configs
Upload file: Click the Upload button to select an .xml file
Try sample: Click the Sample button to see a working example

XML input example:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<server>
  <host>localhost</host>
  <port>8080</port>
</server>
Step 2

Automatic Conversion to TOML

Watch as your XML is transformed into TOML format. The converter provides:

Smart type detection: Automatically detects numbers, booleans, and strings
Array handling: Repeated XML elements become TOML arrays
Modern config: Perfect for Rust and Python projects

TOML output example:

[server]
host = "localhost"
port = 8080
Step 3

Download or Copy Result

Once converted, you can copy the TOML to your clipboard or download it as a .toml file ready for use in your Rust, Python, or modern configuration files.

FAQs About XML to TOML Conversion

Why convert XML to TOML?

TOML is simpler, more readable, and increasingly popular in modern projects (Rust's Cargo, Python's pyproject). Converting from XML allows you to modernize legacy XML configs, migrate from Java/Spring to Rust, or simply use a more human-friendly configuration format.

How are repeated XML elements handled?

Repeated XML elements with the same tag name are automatically grouped into arrays. For example, multiple <server> elements become an array of tables in TOML using the [[server]] syntax. This preserves the structure and meaning of your configuration.

Does the converter detect data types automatically?

Yes! The converter intelligently detects types: numbers (integers and floats) are converted as TOML numbers, booleans (true/false) are detected automatically, and everything else is treated as a string. This ensures your data types are preserved correctly.

Can I convert back to XML?

Yes! Use our TOML to XML converter to convert back. We also offer a complete TOML suite including formatter, validator, JSON, YAML, and ENV converters.
