The format you file has isint what the tool can take so try getting it into a single line, by concatenating it

Attaching the workflow for ease ,(Leaving the rest for the transformations bit)  Please mark as solution if it helps

You can also read in XML from the .txt using the input tool as a .csv file with a delimeter of \0.

The problem is that Alteryx's input data is inexplicably awful for JSON natively.

 

Having said that - just bring this in as plain text with the \0 delimiter as @SGolnik points out. Use a summarize tool in concat mode (with \n or \0 as your option) - and then use json parse on that concatenated value.

 

The json parse tool is awesome.
