🧬 XML to JSON Converter

Convert XML data into a clean JSON object.

ℹ️ About XML to JSON Converter

The XML to JSON Converter is a powerful utility for developers who need to work with data from older services or enterprise data exports in a modern JavaScript or Python environment. While XML is highly descriptive, JSON's native compatibility with most programming languages makes it much easier to parse and manipulate.

This tool intelligently maps XML tags, attributes, and text content into a structured JSON hierarchy. It handles attributes by prefixing them with '@', nested elements as objects, and repeating tags as arrays. This ensures that no data is lost during the conversion process while providing a format that is much more natural for modern development workflows.

📖 How to use XML to JSON Converter

1. Paste your raw XML content into the 'XML Data' field.
2. Click 'Run Tool' to initiate the mapping process.
3. Review the resulting JSON object in the output section.
4. Copy the JSON for use in your application code or data analysis tools.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

How are XML attributes handled?

Attributes are converted into JSON keys with an '@' prefix (e.g., <code>id='1'</code> becomes <code>"@id": "1"</code>).

What happens to multiple tags with the same name?

Repeating XML elements at the same level are automatically grouped into a JSON array.

Can it handle very large XML files?

The tool is optimized for standard API payloads and configuration files. For multi-gigabyte XML datasets, we recommend using streaming parsers like <code>lxml</code>.
