Find XML Keys is a quick way to explore the structure of any XML document. It extracts and lists all tag and attribute names with options to show how often each one appears, sort them, and include XML attributes.

Everything runs live in your browser with no setup needed, so it’s fast, clean, and ready to use on any XML source.
