XML to JSON: free online, fast and secure
Many older systems, product feeds, RSS and government APIs use XML, while modern apps prefer JSON. This converter maps XML elements to JSON objects, attributes to @keys and repeated tags to arrays.
Errors in the XML are reported clearly, and the JSON can be pretty printed or compact.
How to use XML to JSON
- Paste or open XML. Any well-formed XML works.
- Review JSON. Output updates as you type.
- Copy or download. Use it in your app.

Good to know
Office and data files come in many formats. XLSX is Excel’s modern workbook format with sheets and formatting. CSV is plain text with values separated by commas, perfect for imports. JSON and XML are structured formats used by apps and APIs, and Markdown is a simple way to write formatted text. XML to JSON converts between these formats on your device, so business data such as customer lists, invoices and sales reports never leaves your computer.

How XML to JSON keeps your documents and data files private
Most online converters upload your file to their server, process it there and send it back. That costs time, uses your data pack and means a copy of your file sits on someone else’s computer. XML to JSON works differently: the page loads the tool into your browser, and your documents and data files are processed by your own phone or computer. The file never travels over the internet, so it cannot be leaked, stored or misused.
Using XML to JSON on your phone
XML to JSON is designed for small screens. Buttons are large, options are simple, and downloads save directly to your phone storage. On iPhone, downloaded files appear in the Files app under Downloads; on Android they go to the Downloads folder.
