Sitemap URL Extractor: Extract URLs From a Sitemap
Paste a sitemap or sitemap index URL and get every page URL it lists, up to 5,000, as a plain list you can copy or download as CSV. Follows an index into its children.
Someone needs the list of pages. Content wants to audit the help center; the agent project needs to know how many articles will be crawled; a migration needs a before-and-after. The sitemap has the list, as XML, wrapped in tags nobody wants to strip by hand, and split across an index if the site is big. Opening it in a browser gives you either a wall of angle brackets or a styled page you can't copy from cleanly.
Paste the sitemap's URL, or the index's. The tool fetches it with WireDesk's crawler, follows an index into its child sitemaps, and returns every <loc> as a plain list, one URL per line, up to 5,000. Copy the list to the clipboard or download it as a CSV. It lists what the sitemap declares; it doesn't fetch each page to check that it is live. Nothing you paste is stored beyond a short cache of the result.
This ran once, on one input. The product runs on your whole site, every conversation.

- 01
Sitemap URL
The sitemap or the sitemap index, in full: https://www.example.com/sitemap.xml. If you paste an index, every child is fetched and the URLs are merged into one list. Paste a single child if you only want one section.
- 02
The list
One URL per line, in the order the sitemap lists them, with the total at the top. If the total reads 5,000 the sitemap had more and the list was cut; paste the child sitemaps one at a time to get the rest.
- 03
Copy or download CSV
Copy puts the plain list on the clipboard for a spreadsheet, a ticket or a crawler's seed file. Download CSV saves the same list as a file. Both contain exactly what is on screen.
Questions about this tool
Because past that the list is not something a person reads, and a 50,000-line response would take longer to build than most people will wait. 5,000 covers nearly every help center and marketing site whole. For a large catalogue, paste the child sitemaps from the index one at a time; each gets its own 5,000.
