What is XML Parser Online?

XML Parser Online reads a well-formed XML document and displays its structure as an expandable tree. It is useful when you need to understand nested XML, inspect attributes, compare repeated elements, or debug SOAP, RSS, sitemap, and configuration files without installing a desktop editor.

How to Use XML Parser Online

Paste XML into the input panel.

Review parse errors if the document is invalid.

Expand and collapse nodes in the tree view.

Switch to JSON view if you want a copyable structure.

Use the statistics row to check root element, counts, and nesting depth.

Common Use Cases

Inspecting deeply nested XML API responses.
Checking attributes in sitemap, RSS, or SOAP XML.
Debugging XML configuration files before deployment.
Copying a parsed JSON tree for documentation or tests.

Example Input and Output

An invoice XML document is parsed into a document tree.

XML input

<invoice id="INV-1"><total currency="USD">42.00</total></invoice>

Parsed tree

#document
  invoice id="INV-1"
    total currency="USD" 42.00

Tip

Use the JSON view when you want a stable, copyable representation of the XML parse tree for bug reports or tests.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this convert XML to business JSON?

The JSON view represents the parsed tree, including node types, attributes, and children. For a cleaner data conversion, use XML to JSON or XML Converter.

Does the parser validate XML?

Yes. XML must be well formed before the tree can be built. Parser errors are shown under the input.

Can it parse XML attributes?

Yes. Attributes are shown next to each element in the tree and are also included in the JSON output.

Is my XML sent to a server?

No. Parsing happens locally in your browser with DOMParser.
