XML (eXtensible Markup Language) was dominant for decades, but JSON has largely replaced it. When integrating with legacy systems, SOAP APIs, or RSS feeds that use XML, you need to convert to JSON. Parses XML documents and produces clean JSON, handling attributes, text content, and nested elements.
Paste your XML content into the input field and the structured JSON equivalent appears on the right. The tool parses the XML DOM tree and converts elements, attributes, text content, and CDATA sections into a clean JSON structure. Attributes are prefixed with '@' and text content is stored under '#text'.
XML-to-JSON conversion is essential when integrating with legacy SOAP web services, processing RSS and Atom feeds in JavaScript applications, parsing SVG files for data extraction, converting XML-based API responses for modern frontend consumption, migrating configuration from XML formats (like Maven pom.xml or Spring XML) to JSON-based tools, and processing XHTML or Office Open XML documents.
The tool uses the browser's native DOMParser to parse XML, ensuring accurate handling of namespaces, CDATA sections, processing instructions, and character entities. Elements with only text content are simplified to key-value pairs. Elements with both attributes and text use '@attr' and '#text' conventions. Repeated sibling elements with the same name are automatically grouped into arrays. Namespace prefixes are preserved in property names.
Paste your XML content into the input field. The tool parses the XML DOM tree and converts each element, attribute, and text node into the corresponding JSON structure.
XML attributes are converted to JSON properties prefixed with '@'. For example, <item id="1"> becomes {"item": {"@id": "1"}}.
Yes. CDATA sections are extracted as plain text content and included in the JSON output without the CDATA wrapper.
