XML to JSON Converter

• Converts XML elements to JSON objects with proper nesting

• JSON is preferred by REST APIs while XML is used in SOAP and legacy systems
• Useful for migrating data between XML-based and JSON-based systems
• Browser-based processing — no data leaves your machine

Use Cases

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert XML to JSON online?

Paste the XML document into the converter and the tool generates formatted JSON. The output preserves the element hierarchy and maps repeated XML elements into JSON structures you can copy into code, API tests, or documentation.

Can this converter handle XML attributes?

Yes. XML attributes are preserved in the JSON output using the converter's attribute mapping format. Review those fields after conversion because JSON does not have a native attribute concept.

Can I convert SOAP XML responses to JSON?

Yes. SOAP responses are a common use case. Convert the SOAP envelope or body to JSON, then inspect the generated object structure to find the response data you need.

Does XML to JSON conversion preserve namespaces?

Namespace information is included according to the converter's mapping behavior, but namespaces may appear as prefixed keys or attribute fields. If your downstream system depends on namespaces, verify them manually after conversion.

Why did one XML item become an object instead of an array?

Some converters only create arrays when the same element appears more than once. If your schema requires an array even for one item, adjust the output or normalize the JSON in your application code.

Can I convert JSON back to XML?

Yes. Paste JSON into the reverse conversion panel to generate XML. For SOAP payloads or namespaced documents, you may still need to add specific envelope tags, namespace declarations, or attributes required by the target service.

Is this useful for sitemap.xml or RSS feeds?

Yes. You can convert sitemap.xml, RSS, Atom, and OPML files into JSON to inspect URLs, feed items, dates, titles, descriptions, and metadata more easily.

Is my XML uploaded to a server?

The tool is designed for browser-based conversion, so the workflow is private and immediate. For sensitive production payloads, still follow your organization's data-handling policy.
