XML to JSON Converter

XML to JSON Converter parses an XML document with your browser's own XML parser and rewrites it as JSON. It is the conversion you need when something upstream still speaks XML and everything you are writing speaks JSON.

XML carries information JSON has no direct equivalent for, so the output follows a convention rather than inventing one. Attributes are collected under an @attributes key, element text goes into #text when the element also has attributes or children, and repeated sibling elements become an array. That convention is widely used, predictable, and reversible.

Validation comes first. The document is parsed strictly before anything is converted, so a missing closing tag or a stray ampersand produces a clear message naming the line rather than half-converted output. XML is unforgiving by design, and a converter that papers over that is worse than useless.

Namespaces, CDATA sections, comments and processing instructions are all handled rather than discarded or mangled.

Everything runs inside your browser. Nothing you paste is uploaded, logged or stored, which matters when the input is a client list, an internal URL map or anything else you would not post publicly.

• Parses with the browser's own strict XML parser
• Attributes preserved under a predictable key
• Repeated elements become arrays automatically
• CDATA, comments and namespaces handled
• Clear errors naming the line and the problem
• Configurable indentation
• Runs entirely in your browser

The xml to json converter is used by writers, developers, students, marketers and anyone else who needs the job done once without installing software. Common cases include:

• Consuming an XML API from JavaScript
• Converting an RSS or sitemap file for processing
• Migrating configuration from XML to JSON
• Inspecting an unfamiliar XML document in a friendlier shape
• Preparing XML data for a tool that only reads JSON
