About XML ↔ JSON Converter

This converter transforms XML documents into JSON objects and converts JSON back into well-formed XML. XML attributes become @-prefixed keys in JSON, repeated child elements become arrays, and text content maps to string values. When converting JSON to XML, the tool reconstructs proper nesting and attribute syntax. Use it for API integration, data migration between XML-based and JSON-based systems, or converting legacy XML configs to modern JSON format.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the converter handle XML attributes?
XML attributes are converted to JSON keys prefixed with @. For example, <book category="fiction"> becomes {"@category": "fiction"} in JSON. When converting back, @-prefixed keys are restored as attributes.
What happens with repeated XML elements?
Repeated elements with the same tag name are automatically grouped into a JSON array. For example, multiple <item> elements become an array of objects under the "item" key.
Can I convert large XML files?
The tool runs in your browser, so performance depends on your device. Most XML documents up to a few MB convert instantly. Very large files may take a moment.
