Drag your files here

Or paste them with Ctrl+V. They never leave your device.

Why convert XML to JSON?

It is verbose and heavier than JSON for the same information. As JSON any program or API can use it directly.

About the formats

XML, tagged data

XML organises data in nested tags with attributes, like HTML but for data.

Strengths: It is the standard for many government systems, e-invoices and business integrations.

Limits: It is verbose and heavier than JSON for the same information.

JSON, structured data for software

JSON is the data format of APIs and web apps: nested lists and objects as text.

Strengths: Every programming language reads it and it is easy to validate.

Limits: For a person, a table in JSON is harder to read than a spreadsheet.

How to convert XML to JSON

  1. 1Drop your XML files in the box, paste them or pick them from your device.
  2. 2Check that the target is JSON and open the options if you want to adjust it.
  3. 3Press “Convert” and download each JSON, or all of them in a ZIP.

Frequently asked questions

Is my XML uploaded to a server to turn it into JSON?

No. The XML to JSON conversion runs entirely in your browser, with code downloaded from this site and executed on your device. You can check it in the Network tab of the developer tools or by going offline after the page loads.

Is there a size limit?

Up to 1 GB on desktop and about 200 MB on mobile, although a huge spreadsheet may take a few seconds.

Can I convert several XML files at once?

Yes. Drop as many XML files as you like: several are converted at the same time, depending on your processor cores, and when they finish you can download each JSON or all of them in a ZIP.
