What Is an XML Sitemap Extractor?
An XML sitemap extractor is a tool that reads a website's sitemap.xml file and outputs every URL it contains as a plain list. Sitemaps are designed to help search engines discover pages, but they're equally valuable for website owners who need a complete inventory of their published URLs.
Common use cases for sitemap URL extraction include: bulk IndexNow submissions when setting up the protocol for the first time, site audits to identify orphaned or missing pages, content inventory management, and migration planning when moving to a new domain or CMS.
This tool supports standard XML sitemaps (sitemap.xml), sitemap index files that aggregate multiple child sitemaps, RSS feed sitemaps, and Atom sitemaps. Nested sitemap index files are fetched recursively up to 3 levels deep.
