Why Use This Tool?

Legacy System Integration

Convert REST API JSON responses into XML for SOAP services, ERP systems, and enterprise middleware that only accepts XML.

Handles Nested Structures

Deep JSON hierarchies are fully mapped to nested XML elements, preserving the original data structure in XML format.

Auto-Escapes Special Characters

Special characters in JSON values are automatically escaped to valid XML entities, producing well-formed XML output every time.

100% Private

All conversion runs locally in your browser. Your JSON and XML data are never uploaded or stored on any server.

How this JSON to XML Converter works

This transformation tool converts JSON data structures into XML (Extensible Markup Language). It maps JSON keys to XML tags and values to text content, handling nested objects and arrays by creating appropriate child elements. The converter offers options to configure root tag names and attribute prefixes, making it flexible for various XML schema requirements. Ideal for integrating modern JSON-based systems with legacy XML-centric applications or SOAP APIs.

Use our XML Formatter to beautify the resulting XML output for easier inspection.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does JSON map to XML elements?
JSON object keys become XML element names, string and number values become text content inside those elements, nested objects become child elements, and arrays produce repeated sibling elements with the same tag name.
What happens with JSON arrays during conversion?
Each item in a JSON array is output as a repeated XML element. For example, an array called "items" with three entries becomes three <item> elements inside an <items> wrapper.
Can I customize the root element name?
Yes. Most converters let you specify a custom root tag name. If no root is specified, a default like <root> is used to wrap the top-level object.
Does the converter handle JSON with special characters?
Yes. Characters like <, >, and & in JSON string values are automatically escaped to their XML entity equivalents (&lt;, &gt;, &amp;) in the output.
Is this JSON to XML converter secure?
Yes. All conversion happens entirely in your browser. Your JSON and XML data are never sent to or stored on any server.
