Convert XML to JSON in your browser using a clear convention: @ for attributes, #text for text and arrays for repeated elements. Unsafe DOCTYPE and entity declarations are refused, and you get a document tree plus pretty or minified JSON.
XML to JSON Converter turns an XML document into JSON using a predictable, documented convention. The root element becomes the single top-level key; attributes become keys starting with @; an element that holds only text becomes a string; text alongside attributes or child elements is stored under #text; and child elements with the same name become an array in document order. Values are always kept as strings, so nothing is guessed.
The XML is checked before parsing: DOCTYPE declarations, entity declarations and processing instructions are refused, because they can expand entities or point at external files. Only the leading <?xml …?> declaration is accepted. The document is then parsed in memory by your browser’s XML parser and never inserted into the page. Namespaced names keep their prefix (such as dc:title) and namespace declarations are kept as @xmlns attributes; namespace URLs are never fetched.
Attributes become keys starting with @ (for example "@id"), text that sits alongside attributes or child elements goes in "#text", an element with only text becomes a plain string, an empty element becomes "", and repeated sibling elements with the same name become an array.
DOCTYPE and entity declarations can define entities that expand massively or reference external files. They are refused before parsing so these features cannot be used. Remove the DOCTYPE line and convert again.
Element and attribute names keep their prefix, such as dc:title, and declarations such as xmlns:dc are kept as "@xmlns:dc" attributes. The namespace URL is treated only as text and is never fetched.
No. XML has no data types, so every value stays a string. This keeps leading zeros and long IDs exactly as they are.
Comments, whitespace formatting, the exact interleaving of text and child elements in mixed content, and the order of differently named child elements may not be preserved. Converting back to XML may therefore not give the identical document.
Their content is treated as ordinary text and appears in the string or #text value.
Up to 5 MB of XML, 200,000 elements and 500 levels of nesting. The tree view shows the first 400 elements; the JSON contains the whole document.
No. Pasted text and opened files are processed in your browser on your device. Nothing is uploaded, and data, settings and results are not saved in browser storage. Reset clears them from the page.
