Frequently Asked Questions

Is the XML to JSON Converter free?
Yes, the XML to JSON Converter is completely free with no usage limits. Convert as much XML to JSON as you need without any registration or restrictions.
Is my XML data secure?
Yes, all conversion happens locally in your browser. Your XML data never leaves your device, making it safe to convert sensitive configuration files, API responses, or legacy data.
How does XML to JSON conversion work?
The converter parses XML elements and transforms them into JSON objects. Element names become JSON keys, text content becomes values, attributes can be converted to properties, and nested elements become nested objects or arrays.
Why convert XML to JSON?
Converting XML to JSON is useful when modernizing legacy systems, consuming SOAP APIs in JavaScript applications, reducing payload sizes (JSON is typically 30% smaller), and when working with modern frameworks and APIs that prefer JSON format.
How are XML attributes handled?
XML attributes can be converted to JSON properties, typically prefixed with @ or placed in a special _attributes object. The tool provides options for how you want attributes represented in the resulting JSON structure.
