About the XML to JSON Converter
The XML to JSON Converter transforms XML data into JSON format, making it easier to work with in modern web applications — particularly useful when dealing with APIs, legacy systems, or any data interchange that still uses XML.
The tool parses your XML using the browser's built-in XML parser, then walks the resulting document tree to build a JSON object — preserving the element hierarchy, converting attributes into an "@attributes" key, and placing text content under a "#text" key on each element.
How to Use This Tool
Paste your XML
Enter or paste the XML document you want to convert.
Click "Convert to JSON"

Common Use Cases
Integrating a Legacy XML API with a JSON App: Convert XML responses from an older system into JSON for use in a modern JavaScript app.
Inspecting an XML Payload's Structure: Quickly see an XML document's hierarchy laid out as JSON for easier reading.
Debugging XML-to-JSON Conversion Logic: Check how a specific XML structure maps to JSON before writing your own conversion code.
Preparing XML Config for JavaScript Processing: Turn an XML configuration file into JSON so it can be consumed directly in JS code.
Why Use This Tool
Structure-Preserving Conversion
Converts nested XML elements and attributes into a corresponding JSON structure.
XML Error Detection
