Modern JavaScript applications and REST APIs speak JSON natively, but plenty of data still arrives as XML from SOAP services, RSS feeds, or legacy systems. This XML to JSON converter parses your XML document and produces a clean JSON representation, converting element text, attributes, and nested structures into an equivalent JSON object. It's useful for frontend developers who need to consume XML data in a JavaScript app, and integration engineers bridging old and new systems. Attribute handling follows common conventions so you don't lose metadata during the conversion. Since parsing happens entirely in your browser, your XML is never uploaded to a server, and there's no signup required. Paste your XML below to get JSON output instantly.

Frequently asked questions
How are XML attributes represented in the converted JSON?
Attributes are typically converted into JSON properties, often prefixed (like @id) to distinguish them clearly from child element text content.
What happens to repeated sibling elements in XML?
Repeated elements with the same tag name under a parent are converted into a JSON array, preserving their order.
Does this tool handle XML namespaces?
Yes, namespaced elements and attributes are parsed and represented in the resulting JSON structure.
Is my XML data uploaded to convert it to JSON?
No, the conversion runs entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript - your document is never sent to a server.
Can I convert the resulting JSON back to XML?
Yes, use the companion JSON to XML converter to reverse the transformation at any time.
Does it validate my XML before converting?
Yes, malformed XML is flagged before conversion so you know the JSON output accurately reflects a well-formed source document.
Can it handle large or deeply nested XML documents?
Yes, typical documents including deeply nested SOAP responses or RSS feeds convert instantly since processing is local.
