Convert and Transform Your XML Files
XML (eXtensible Markup Language) is a very commonly used data format due to its flexibility and ability to be customized specifically for each user's needs. It was developed by and is maintained by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). XML files are written in plain text that is both human and machine readable meaning they are both straightforward and robust, at the same time. With FME you can transform your data to or from the XML format to make all your data dreams come true!
XML for Applications
Need to bring your XML files into applications like Google Drive, HDFS (Hadoop Distributed File System) or ProjectWise? Look no further! Simply add your file via an XML Reader, add transformers to manipulate your data, and connect it directly into the system of your choice.

XML for Web Services
There are a variety of XML based web services like WSDL, SOAP, RFD, and RSS. With FME you can take advantage of these services to generate presentable data. For example, convertXML to KMLto show traffic updates directly on Google Earth! Many REST APIs are made to accept and respond to XML formatted data too!

XML For Data Transfer
With the XMLTemplater transformer, you can quickly transform your data into the eXtensible markup language format with the application schema laid out for you. Ensure that your data is ready to go by using the XMLValidator to ensure that the syntax is correctly implemented before writing your new file.
