About the XML to JSON Converter
Need to turn a XML file into JSON? This free converter changes XML data files into JSON in a few seconds, right in your browser. People usually convert because XML is verbose and hard to analyse in a spreadsheet, while JSON gives you structured JSON. JSON files open in every programming language, VS Code, Postman, browsers and databases.
The file is parsed with well-tested open-source parsers (the browser's JSON and XML parsers, js-yaml and smol-toml) and written back out as valid JSON. Because everything happens on your own device, your data files are never uploaded, stored or seen by anyone else, which makes it safe for customer lists, salary sheets, GST data and API exports.
What to expect: objects, lists, numbers, booleans and text keep their structure and types; invalid input is reported with the line of the problem so you can fix it.
How to use the XML to JSON Converter
- Click "Choose files" or drag your XML data files onto the box. You can add several at once.
- No settings are needed; indentation and types are handled automatically.
- Press "Convert to JSON". The conversion runs on your device and shows its progress.
- Download each JSON file, or use "Download all (ZIP)" when you converted several.
- Open the result in every programming language or VS Code to check it; your original XML is never changed.
Tips & benchmarks
- The JSON is pretty-printed with two-space indentation and numbers and booleans keep their types.
- Validate the output in your target tool (for example kubectl, Cargo or your API client) before deploying it.
- Keep the file name simple (letters, numbers and hyphens) if you plan to upload the JSON to a website or government portal.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert XML to JSON?
Click "Choose files", select your XML data files, adjust the options if you want, and press "Convert to JSON". The JSON downloads immediately; with several files you can download everything as one ZIP.
Is this XML to JSON converter free and safe?
Yes. It is completely free, with no sign-up, no daily limit and no watermark. The conversion runs inside your browser, so your data files never leave your phone or computer and nothing is stored on News Appite's servers.
What happens to nested data?
Nothing is lost: objects, lists and values map one-to-one between XML and JSON. Comments are not carried over because most formats cannot store them.
Can I convert several XML files at once?
Yes. Add as many XML files as you like; they are converted one after another and you can download them individually or together as a ZIP.
Does it work on iPhone, Android and Mac?
Yes. The converter works in any modern browser, including Chrome, Safari, Edge and Firefox, on Android, iPhone, iPad, Windows, macOS and Linux. No app is needed.
What is the difference between XML and JSON?
XML (Extensible Markup Language) is a structured markup data best suited to enterprise integrations, RSS and sitemaps, SOAP APIs and regulated data exchange. JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a structured data (text) best suited to APIs, web and mobile apps, configuration and MongoDB or Firebase data.
Is there a file size limit?
There is no upload limit, because nothing is uploaded. The practical limit is your device's memory: files of a few hundred megabytes work on most computers, and phones handle smaller files comfortably.
How do I convert XML to JSON in Python?
Use xmltodict: data = xmltodict.parse(open("input.xml").read()), then write it with json.dump or yaml.safe_dump. If you just need the file, this converter does it in the browser without writing any code.

What is a XML file?
XML is a W3C standard from 1998 for describing structured data with tags. It powers RSS feeds, sitemaps, SOAP APIs, Office files and many government and banking data exchanges, including e-invoicing and GST schemas.
What is a JSON file?
JSON is the data format of the modern web: almost every API, app configuration and NoSQL database speaks it. It represents objects, arrays, numbers and text in a compact, human-readable way.
