    Choose Compact or Ordered, plus namespace and type-detection options.

  3. 3

    Copy or download the JSON

    Copy the generated JSON or download it as a file.

Good to know

The XML to JSON converter converts XML documents into JSON directly in your browser, with two representations: Compact groups elements by name, Ordered preserves the order of all nodes — important for mixed content of text and elements. Namespace prefixes such as soap: can be stripped, with collisions reported.

Comments, the XML declaration, and processing instructions can optionally be carried over into the JSON result. A safe type-detection mode deliberately keeps values like 00123 as text to avoid loss of meaning; namespaces, attributes, and mixed content can make the JSON output more nested than expected.

Typical use cases

Evaluate a SOAP response without namespace noise

Strip namespace prefixes such as soap: or ns2: to get a SOAP response as clean JSON without prefix noise.

Correctly preserve mixed text and markup content

Choose the ordered representation when an element contains both text and nested elements and order matters.

Tips for better results

Prefer Compact for simple data structures

For pure data structures without mixed content, the compact representation produces cleaner JSON than the ordered one.

Check namespace collisions after stripping

If two different namespaces use the same local element name, the tool reports a collision — check these cases deliberately.

Features

  • Compact or Ordered

    Group elements by name or preserve the exact order of all nodes.

  • Strip namespace prefixes

    Remove prefixes such as soap: from element and attribute names, with collisions reported.

  • Local processing

    Your file never leaves your device; conversion runs entirely in the browser.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between Compact and Ordered?

Compact groups elements by name for simpler structures; Ordered preserves the exact order of all nodes, important for mixed content.

Is my file uploaded?

No. Conversion runs entirely locally in the browser.
