Convert XML to JSON

This tool uses the browser's native XML parser to read your document and convert it into a clean JSON object. Attributes, nested elements, repeated tags, and text content are all preserved in a predictable structure.

Conversion rules

  • Element names become object keys
  • Attributes are prefixed with @ (e.g. @id)
  • Repeated elements become a JSON array
  • Text-only elements become plain string values

Real parsing, real errors

Because conversion relies on a standards-compliant DOM parser, malformed XML is rejected with a clear error message instead of producing silently wrong output.

Working with XML APIs

Converting XML to JSON lets you consume SOAP services, RSS and Atom feeds, sitemaps, and configuration files using the same JavaScript objects you already use for REST APIs — no special XML libraries required in your application code.

100% Private & Processed Locally

Every conversion on this page runs entirely inside your browser using JavaScript. Your data is never uploaded to a server, logged, or stored — making this tool safe even for sensitive payloads such as API responses, configuration files, and access tokens.

Because there is no network round-trip, conversions are instant and work even when you are offline. It is free to use with no sign-up, no rate limits, and no ads injected into your output.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about the XML to JSON Converter.

How are XML attributes represented?
Attributes are converted to keys prefixed with an @ symbol (for example @id), so they never clash with child element names.
What happens with repeated tags?
Repeated child elements of the same name are grouped into a JSON array automatically.
Does it validate the XML?
Yes. It uses the browser's standards-compliant parser, so malformed XML produces a clear error instead of wrong output.
