XML to JSON

How to use XML to JSON

1. Open XML to JSON — it runs entirely in your browser with no setup.
2. Paste or type your input into the text area, or upload a file where supported.
3. Set any options you need. The result appears in the output panel — there is no upload step and no waiting on a server.
4. Review the output instantly; large inputs are handled locally without lag.
5. Copy the result to your clipboard or download it. Your data never leaves the page.

Why use XML to JSON?

• 100% free with no limits, no sign-up and no watermarks.
• Private by design — your data are processed in your browser and never uploaded to a server.
• Fast and lightweight, with instant results even on a phone or a slow connection.
• Works everywhere — any modern browser on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android or iOS.
• Part of a full developer tools suite, so related xml to json tasks are one click away.

What people use XML to JSON for

• Converting a SOAP or RSS response into something a JavaScript app can use directly.
• Turning a legacy XML config into JSON for a rewritten service.
• Making a large XML document easier to query with standard tooling.

XML to JSON: limits and things worth knowing

• Attributes and child elements both become object keys, which loses the distinction between them. Most converters prefix attributes (commonly with @) to keep them separable.
• An element appearing once becomes a value and appearing twice becomes an array, so the resulting shape depends on the data rather than the schema. Code that assumes an array will break on a single-item document.
• Mixed content — text and elements interleaved in the same parent — has no clean JSON representation and is where conversions most often lose information.
• Namespaces are flattened into the key names; the prefix-to-URI mapping is not preserved.

Is it private and secure?

Your privacy is built in. XML to JSON runs completely on your device, so whatever you enter stays in your browser and is never transmitted, logged or stored on any server.

Network activity: none. Nothing is sent and nothing is fetched. This tool makes no network request at all once the page has loaded — which is why it keeps working if your connection drops.

You do not have to take that on trust — our privacy proof page publishes the Content-Security-Policy that enforces it, lists every third party it permits, and shows how to verify the whole claim yourself.
