XML to JSON
Convert XML data to JSON format.
How to Use XML to JSON
Drop an .xml file into the upload area or paste the XML markup straight into the editor - 10 MB is the limit per file.
Review the detected root element and confirm the attribute handling options match what you need.
Click the "Process" button to parse the document and generate the formatted JSON.
Copy the JSON with one click or download it as a .json file for your code, import or further editing.

About XML to JSON
XML shows up everywhere - legacy SOAP responses, RSS and Atom feeds, sitemap files, configuration dumps, WordPress exports, banking and government datasets - and most modern JavaScript handles JSON far more happily. The XML to JSON converter parses your document and rebuilds it as native JSON, turning each element into a key and each repeated element into an array.
Attributes are preserved rather than discarded. An element such as a link carrying an href attribute comes back with its text as the value and its attributes collected alongside, so you never quietly lose data. CDATA sections, XML declarations, namespaces and self-closing tags are all handled, and formatted JSON is far easier to read in a browser than a nest of angle brackets.
Reach for it before wiring up a legacy endpoint, when a REST client expects JSON but the server still speaks XML, or simply to make sense of a feed or sitemap you have been staring at. Files up to 10 MB are converted locally in your browser, so no document is left sitting on a third-party server.
When to Use This Tool
- Feeding a SOAP or legacy XML endpoint into a client that wants JSON
- Reading RSS, Atom or sitemap files with JSON-based tooling
- Inspecting WordPress, Shopify or Magento XML exports for data migration
- Debugging an API response without scrolling through nested tags
- Building mock fixtures from a saved XML response
