# XML tools By Workato - Transform XML using XSLT action
The Transform XML using XSLT action applies an XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations) script to an XML document and converts it into a different format, such as another XML structure, HTML, or plain text. This action fully supports XSLT 1.0 and offers partial support for XSLT 2.0.
# Input
| Input field | Description |
|---|---|
| Document | Provide the XML document to transform. |
| Encoding of the file content | Specify the encoding format for the XML document. If left blank, Workato defaults to UTF-8. |
| XSLT | Provide the XSLT script that defines how to transform the XML document. Ensure that any imports or includes do not contain absolute paths. For example, imported.xsl. |
| XSLT references | Provide the names and contents of up to five referenced stylesheets if the XSLT script includes imports or includes. |
| XSLT parameters | Specify the names and values if the XSLT script includes parameters. |
| Response content type | Select the expected format of the transformed output. Choose Raw text response body to return unstructured text, or choose Structured response to generate datapills based on a sample document. If the transformation output does not match the selected format, the action fails. |
| Response body example | Provide a sample document that represents the expected output structure if Structured response is selected as the Response content type. Workato uses this sample to generate datapills. If left blank, the action returns a single raw output datapill. |
# Output
Workato returns the raw transformation output if you select Raw text response body. Workato generates datapills based on the sample document provided if you select Structured response.
# Sample use case
An XSLT script defines how Workato should transform an XML document. The following XSLT script converts raw XML data into a structured format:
