XML to JSON

The converter parses your XML input using a standard XML parser, then transforms the DOM tree into a JSON object. Elements become keys, attributes get prefixed with @, and text content is stored under #text.

XML attributes are converted to keys with an @ prefix by default (e.g., the attribute id becomes @id), keeping them separate from child element data.

Text content within XML elements is stored under a special #text key in the resulting JSON object, preserving the original text data.

Yes, CDATA sections are preserved and treated as text content within their parent elements, ensuring no data is lost during conversion.

Yes, nested XML elements are converted into corresponding nested JSON objects, maintaining the full hierarchical structure of the original XML document.

When multiple sibling elements share the same tag name, they are automatically converted into a JSON array, preserving all instances.

Yes, the converter validates the XML structure before conversion. If the XML is malformed, you will receive a clear error message indicating the issue.

Absolutely. All conversion happens entirely in your browser. No XML data is sent to any server, ensuring complete privacy and security.

XML uses a tag-based hierarchical structure while JSON uses key-value pairs. JSON is generally more lightweight and easier to parse in JavaScript, making it preferred for web APIs and data exchange.

Yes, the converter runs in your browser and can handle large XML files. Performance depends on your device's available memory and processing power.

Yes, XML namespaces are preserved in the JSON output, typically represented as part of the element key name.

The converter outputs standard JSON format with configurable indentation. You can choose between compact (minified) JSON or pretty-printed JSON with customizable spacing.
