Converting XML to Other Formats
XML is a structured markup language used widely in SOAP APIs, Android resources, Maven/Gradle configs, RSS feeds, and legacy enterprise systems. Converting XML to JSON makes it easier to work with in modern JavaScript/Python applications. Converting XML to YAML is useful for creating Kubernetes or Ansible configs from XML data sources. This tool uses the browser's built-in DOM parser for XML and js-yaml for YAML output. For a full JSON toolkit, visit JSON Indent; for YAML formatting and validation, visit YAML Indent.
How attributes are handled
XML attributes are prefixed with @ in the output
(e.g. <book id="1"> becomes {"@id": "1"}).
Repeated child elements with the same tag name are automatically grouped into arrays.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the conversion lossless?
Not fully. XML has features (namespaces, processing instructions, mixed content) that don't map cleanly to JSON or YAML. For typical data-oriented XML, the conversion preserves all elements, attributes, and text content.
Is my data safe?
Yes. All conversion happens in your browser. No data is sent to any server.
