XML Tag Value Extractor

How to Use the Free Client-Side XML Tag Value Extractor

Paste your XML, type the tag name you want, and pull every matching value into a clean list. Extraction happens locally in your browser, so the document and its contents never leave your device.

1. Paste your raw XML data into the input area.
2. Enter the tag name whose values you want, such as title, name, or id.
3. Click Extract, then copy the numbered list or download it as a text file.

When to Use XML Tag Value Extractor

XML is a container, and the data you actually need is usually spread across a single tag repeated many times. Manually picking values out of a large document is slow and error-prone; this tool finds every occurrence of a given tag and lists its text content in milliseconds. That is exactly what you want when gathering all product IDs or titles from a catalog, collecting email addresses or phone numbers from an XML contact list, or pulling specific fields out of an XML export for migration or analysis.

The tool keeps every occurrence including duplicates, which is the right behavior for data work — auditing a feed often requires knowing exactly how many times a value appears, not a deduplicated summary. The output is a numbered list with one value per line, ready to copy into a spreadsheet, a script, or another system. Namespaced documents are handled too: enter the full prefixed name like dc:title to match namespaced elements.

XML Tag Value Extractor Tips and Best Practices

1. Match the tag casing exactly. XML is case-sensitive, so searching for title will not find Title or TITLE — check the document for the actual casing.
2. Use the namespace prefix for namespaced XML. In a feed with elements like dc:title, enter the full prefixed tag name to hit the right nodes.
3. Know what this tool returns. It extracts element text content, not attribute values — for attributes like id="123", you need an XPath-based tool.
4. If nothing matches, verify the tag exists at all. An empty list usually means a spelling or casing mismatch rather than missing data.

Why Client-Side Privacy Matters for extracting data fields from XML documents containing personal information

Extraction is a data-handling operation on data you may not fully control. A contact list, a customer export, or a catalog holding personal details is loaded wholesale while you pull out the field you need — and a remote extraction service would be handling the entire document, not just the tag you asked for.

This XML Tag Value Extractor processes everything locally in your browser. Your XML is parsed on your device, the matching values are collected there, and nothing is uploaded to any server. The document you are mining stays private, even as you work with the fields inside it.
