Data conversion on screen representing XML to JSON

XML used to be the standard format for data exchange. Most modern APIs have moved to JSON — but a lot of legacy systems, enterprise software, RSS feeds, and third-party integrations still output XML. When you need that data in JSON format, converting manually is painful.

The XML to JSON converter handles the conversion instantly — paste your XML, get clean JSON output, done.

Why You'd Need to Convert XML to JSON

Legacy API integration — older enterprise systems, banking APIs, government data sources, and SOAP services often return XML. If your app works with JSON, you need to convert.

RSS and Atom feeds — blog feeds, news feeds, podcast feeds are all XML-based. Converting to JSON makes them easier to work with in modern JavaScript or Dart code.

Configuration migration — some older tools use XML config files (Maven, Ant, older Spring configs). Converting to JSON is part of modernising the stack.

Third-party data exports — accounting software, CRM systems, and ERPs frequently export in XML. Converting to JSON lets you import into modern databases and APIs.

Flutter app development — if you're consuming a SOAP or XML-based web service in a Flutter app, converting the response to JSON before parsing is much easier than writing an XML parser in Dart.

How to Use the XML to JSON Converter

  1. Go to rohansurve.in/free-tools/xml-to-json
  2. Paste your XML into the input field
  3. The JSON output appears instantly
  4. Copy the result and use it in your project

The output is properly formatted JSON — readable and ready to use.

What to Expect From the Conversion

XML and JSON represent data differently. Here's what the converter does:

  • XML elements become JSON keys
  • XML text content becomes the value
  • XML attributes are included in the JSON object
  • Nested elements become nested JSON objects
  • Repeated elements become JSON arrays automatically

The result is clean, valid JSON that matches the structure of your original XML data.

Example Conversion

Input XML:

<user>
  <name>Rohan</name>
  <city>Mysuru</city>
  <tools>
    <tool>json-formatter</tool>
    <tool>regex-tester</tool>
  </tools>
</user>

Output JSON:

{
  "user": {
    "name": "Rohan",
    "city": "Mysuru",
    "tools": {
      "tool": ["json-formatter", "regex-tester"]
    }
  }
}

After Converting — Validate and Format

Once you have the JSON output, run it through the JSON Validator to confirm it's valid, and the JSON Formatter if you need to adjust the indentation. Both tools are free and take seconds.

All free, all instant — rohansurve.in/free-tools.

Stop Converting XML Manually

Writing a custom XML parser every time you need to work with legacy data is a waste of time. The XML to JSON converter handles it in seconds — paste, convert, copy, move on.
