Frequently Asked Questions

How are XML attributes handled in JSON conversion?

By default, XML attributes are converted to JSON properties with an "@" prefix (e.g., id="123" becomes "@id": "123"). You can customize this prefix or ignore attributes entirely using the options.

Is my data secure when using this converter?

Yes, absolutely. All conversion happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your data never leaves your device or gets sent to any server, ensuring complete privacy and security.

Can I convert complex nested XML structures?

Yes, the converter handles deeply nested XML structures, arrays, mixed content, and CDATA sections. Complex hierarchies are preserved in the JSON output with proper nesting.

What happens to XML namespaces?

XML namespaces are preserved as part of the element names in JSON. For example, <ns:element> becomes "ns:element" as a JSON property name.

How does the tool handle XML with mixed content?

Mixed content (elements containing both text and child elements) is handled by creating a special structure in JSON that preserves both the text content and child elements.
