How to convert XML to XSD?

You can convert XML files to XSD format in several ways. The most proven option is to download dedicated software that allows you to convert between the XML and XSD formats. At the bottom you will find a list of software programs that support XML and XSD files and can also save them in new file formats.

XML File Type

XML stands for Extensible Markup Language. It's a file type that has a .xml extension. XML files are based on Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML). The Extensible Markup Language provides a common framework for exchanging data between applications and different operating systems. This enables users to use Microsoft Word to create a spreadsheet in Excel, which is saved as an XML file, without having to export the document to ASCII text format first. In other words, XML files can be used interchangeably with different platforms and formats because they are platform independent. This makes it easy for users who work on multiple platforms or have different software installed on their computer to be able to open any given file without needing specific programs installed on the computer where the file will be opened from.

XSD File Type

XSD files are used to define the structure and content of an XML document. XSD files can be opened in any text editor, but Microsoft Visual Studio has a tool for opening and editing them. The schema is what defines the structure of the XML file and how it's going to be parsed. The schema that's created by using XSD files is used for validation purposes.
