Data Formats and Serialization

Working with CSV

To read from a CSV file, use the Import-Csv cmdlet.

Working with JSON

To read or parse JSON in PowerShell, you can use the ConvertFrom-Json cmdlet.

Working with TOML

In PowerShell, there’s no native cmdlet to parse TOML.

Working with XML

XML, or eXtensible Markup Language, has been around since the late ’90s and remains a widely-used format for structured data.

PowerShell, by default, doesn’t come with a built-in cmdlet for parsing YAML, but it works seamlessly with YAML when you leverage the powershell-yaml module or convert YAML into a PowerShell object using ConvertFrom-Json in combination with a tool like yq.
