XML Compare

XML Compare allows you to compare two XML documents and quickly identify their differences. You can paste XML content directly into the tool or select XML files from your device.

Add the original XML on one side and the updated XML on the other, then click Compare XML. The tool analyzes both documents and displays the changes in the Comparison Results section, showing values or elements that have been added, removed, or modified.

For example, you can compare these two XML documents:

<user>
  <name>CodeLiqo</name>
  <version>1</version>
  <city>Madrid</city>
</user>

and:

<user>
  <name>CodeLiqo</name>
  <version>2</version>
  <language>English</language>
</user>

The comparison identifies the changed version, the removed city element, and the added language element.

XML Compare is useful for checking configuration files, API responses, exported data, or different versions of an XML document. Everything is processed directly in your browser, making it convenient for quick comparisons without installing additional software.

XML Compare can also be useful when reviewing XML files during development or testing. Comparing two versions makes it easier to spot small changes in element values or structure that may otherwise be difficult to find manually, especially when working with larger XML documents.

You can use the tool for configuration files, application data, API responses, integrations, or any other situation where you need to verify what changed between two XML versions. It provides a quick way to review the differences without having to compare the documents line by line.
