Frequently Asked Questions
How are XML tags mapped to YAML keys?
Child XML elements translate into YAML dictionary keys with nested indentation, and repeated sibling tags become YAML array lists.
Can I convert YAML files back to valid XML?
Yes, clicking 'To XML' wraps the YAML object keys in standard opening and closing XML tags.
Is any of my configuration data uploaded to an external server?
No, all parsing uses the browser's DOMParser and client-side js-yaml library locally.
Is this tool free?
Yes, the SolversPro XML ↔ YAML Converter is 100% free with no conversion quotas or sign-up.
