XML Tools
Format, validate, and convert XML.
The role of XML in modern workflows
XML remains common in enterprise systems, SOAP APIs, document formats, and configuration. Even when your primary format is JSON, you may receive XML from legacy services or need to produce XML for a partner. This hub centralizes the tools you need: format messy XML for readability, validate it before sending or parsing, and convert it to JSON when you need to work with it in a JSON-first stack.
All three tools—Formatter, Validator, and XML to JSON—run entirely in your browser. There is no server round-trip, so sensitive documents and payloads stay on your device. The same editor and keyboard shortcuts used across the platform apply here, so switching between JSON and XML tools feels consistent.
When to use each tool
Use the XML Formatter when you have a single-line or poorly indented XML file and need to inspect or edit it. The Validator is the first stop when integration fails or you need to check well-formedness before sending data. The XML to JSON converter is useful when you are migrating to a JSON API, building a bridge between XML and JSON services, or need to process XML data with JSON-oriented libraries. Together they cover the main operations developers perform on XML without leaving the browser.

Frequently Asked Questions
What XML tools are available?
The XML tools category includes an XML Formatter (beautify and indent), XML Validator (check well-formedness and syntax), and XML to JSON converter. All run in your browser.
Can I convert XML to JSON?
Yes. Use the XML to JSON tool to transform well-formed XML into JSON. Useful for API integration or when working with systems that consume JSON.
Is my XML data sent to a server?
No. All XML processing happens in your browser. No data is uploaded or stored on our servers.
What if my XML is invalid?
Use the XML Validator to get detailed error messages and line information. Fix the issues, then use the formatter or converter as needed.
Do you support XML namespaces?
The tools handle standard XML. For complex namespaces or custom DTDs, validation is focused on well-formedness and basic structure.
