Sitemap URL Extractor

Extract URLs from XML sitemaps and sitemap indexes. Parse loc, lastmod, changefreq, priority, image URLs, and export clean URL lists directly in your browser.

Paste a sitemap.xml file, sitemap index, image sitemap, or copied XML response from your browser, crawler, or Search Console workflow.

Options

Extracts loc, lastmod, changefreq, priority, sitemap index entries, and optional image loc values. This tool parses pasted XML only and does not crawl linked child sitemaps automatically.

Output

Extracted sitemap URLs will appear here.
Sitemap parsing happens directly in your browser. Your XML sitemap is not uploaded to a server.

Extracting URLs From XML Sitemaps

A sitemap can contain hundreds or thousands of URLs, along with lastmod dates, priorities, changefreq values, child sitemap links, and image entries. When checking indexing or migrations, it is often useful to pull those URLs into a clean list.

This Sitemap URL Extractor reads pasted sitemap XML and extracts the important values into a URL list, CSV, JSON, Markdown table, or summary. It works with normal urlset sitemaps, sitemap indexes, and image sitemap entries.

Pulling URLs From a Sitemap

  1. Paste XML from a sitemap.xml file or sitemap index.
  2. Choose whether you want page URLs, sitemap URLs, image URLs, or all entries.
  3. Pick the output format such as URL list, CSV, JSON, or Markdown.
  4. Sort, deduplicate, or keep HTTPS URLs only if needed.
  5. Copy the extracted URLs for crawling, indexing checks, or migration work.

Common Sitemap URL Extractor Use Cases

  • Extracting all URLs from sitemap.xml for manual review.
  • Turning a sitemap into a crawl list for SEO checks.
  • Checking lastmod values across important pages.
  • Finding child sitemap URLs inside a sitemap index.

Sitemap Extraction vs Sitemap Validation

A sitemap validator checks whether the XML structure is valid and follows sitemap rules. A URL extractor focuses on pulling out useful values so you can inspect, sort, copy, crawl, or compare them.

Use both when needed: extract URLs for review, then validate the sitemap if you suspect formatting, namespace, or sitemap protocol issues.
