+5I’m fetching XML data text() but am running into a dead end when trying to find a way to parse the data. I tried using domparser and a few different functions I found on StackOverflow but most seem to require a non-native library. Does anyone have any suggestions on either how to parse XML in vanilla javascript or how to convert XML into JSON?
For reference when using
let parser = new DOMParser();
I get “ReferenceError: DOMParser is not defined”
+5That worked for me once I realized it was parsing it into an object where I could use keys to get what I need. Thanks!
maybe try a simple function like this:
I found that this function doesn’t always parse data from the XML correctly, especially if there are characters like ‘<’ in the data itself.
Do you have any other recommendations on how to parse XML using another method?

For anyone from Google, you can try using the free Data Fetcher extension to import a remote XML file to Airtable.
