SnapOtter d24e244af4 docs: organize tool pages by modality under /tools/<modality>/
Move all 157 tool pages into image/video/audio/pdf/data subfolders so URLs read /tools/<modality>/<id> (e.g. /tools/image/crop). Nest the image sub-categories under an Image group in the sidebar so the nav reads by modality. Add public/_redirects (301, clean + .html forms) mapping every old flat /tools/<id> URL to its new path so inbound links keep working. Rewrite all internal /tools links. Verified with a clean docs build (no dead links).

Extract repeating elements from XML into a CSV table.

XML to CSV

Extract repeating elements from an XML file into a flat CSV table. The tool automatically finds the first array of objects in the XML tree and maps each element to a row.

API Endpoint

POST /api/v1/tools/data/xml-to-csv

Accepts multipart form data with an XML file. No settings field is required.

Parameters

This tool has no configurable parameters. The repeating element is auto-detected from the XML structure.

Example Request

curl -X POST http://localhost:1349/api/v1/tools/data/xml-to-csv \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer si_your-api-key" \
  -F "file=@catalog.xml"

Example Response

{
  "jobId": "a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890",
  "downloadUrl": "/api/v1/download/a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890/catalog.csv",
  "originalSize": 4500,
  "processedSize": 1800
}

Notes

  • Only .xml files are accepted as input.
  • The tool scans the XML tree for the first repeating set of sibling elements and uses those as rows.
  • Each unique child element or attribute name becomes a CSV column header.
  • This is a one-way conversion. For bidirectional JSON/XML conversion, use the JSON to XML tool.
