— What it does

The XML to JSON converter is a free tool that parses XML and turns it into clean, pretty-printed JSON. Elements become objects, attributes are grouped under an attributes key, text content is placed under a text key (or collapsed to a plain string when an element has no children or attributes), and repeated child elements become arrays. Parsing uses the browser DOMParser and runs entirely on your device, so nothing you paste is ever uploaded.

  • Maps attributes to an attributes key and text to a text key, collapsing simple elements to strings.
  • Turns repeated child elements into JSON arrays automatically.
  • Detects malformed XML and shows a clear, friendly error instead of crashing.
  • Runs entirely in your browser — your XML is never uploaded to a server.

How to use it

1

Paste your XML

Paste an XML document into the input box, or load the sample to see the output structure.

2

Review the JSON

The pretty-printed JSON updates instantly. If the XML is malformed, a friendly error explains what went wrong.

3

Copy or download

Copy the JSON to your clipboard or download it as a .json file for your app or API.

Frequently asked

Does this upload my XML anywhere?
No. Parsing happens entirely in your browser using the built-in DOMParser. Your XML is never sent to a server, so it is safe for private or sensitive data.
How are attributes and text represented?
Attributes are grouped under an "attributes" key and text content under a "text" key. When an element has only text and no attributes or children, it is collapsed to a plain string for a cleaner result.
What happens with repeated elements?
When a parent has more than one child of the same tag name, those children are collected into a JSON array so the structure round-trips cleanly.
What if my XML is invalid?
The converter detects a parser error and shows a friendly message instead of throwing, so you can fix the markup and try again.
