XML to JSON Converter

About this calculator

XML and JSON are both structured, human-readable data formats, but they organize information differently — XML uses nested tags and attributes, while JSON uses nested objects, arrays, and key-value pairs — so translating between them by hand is tedious and error-prone. This converter parses any XML document, walks its element tree, and rebuilds it as clean, pretty-printed JSON, reporting the root element name and an approximate node count along the way.

The conversion is a routine step for developers integrating legacy or third-party systems — many older APIs, RSS/Atom feeds, SOAP services, and enterprise systems still speak XML, while most modern web and mobile apps consume JSON — so converting a sample response is often the fastest way to sketch out a JSON schema, test a new endpoint, or feed XML data into a JavaScript front end.
