What is XML to JSON Converter?

XML to JSON conversion transforms XML documents into JSON format. Elements become objects, attributes become properties (often prefixed with @), and text content becomes string values.

Why Use This Tool

Modern applications prefer JSON, but many legacy systems, SOAP services, and data sources use XML. Converting XML to JSON enables processing with JavaScript and modern APIs.

When to Use It

Use XML to JSON when integrating legacy SOAP services, processing RSS/Atom feeds, importing XML data into modern applications, or converting configuration formats.

Common Uses

  • Converting SOAP responses to JSON
  • Processing RSS/Atom feeds

Frequently Asked Questions

How are attributes converted?

Common conventions prefix attributes with @ (@id, @class). Some converters use separate 'attributes' objects. Check the output format for your specific needs.

What about namespaces?

XML namespaces add complexity. Simple converters ignore or flatten namespaces. Complex XML may require preprocessing or namespace-aware conversion.

Can I convert JSON back to XML?

Yes. CipherKit supports bidirectional conversion. Note that XML features like attributes, comments, and processing instructions may not round-trip perfectly.
