JSON to XML Converter
Transform JSON data into well-formed XML with proper escaping, nested elements, and array handling — all in your browser.
About JSON to XML Conversion
JSON dominates modern REST APIs, but XML still powers SOAP web services, enterprise integrations, configuration files, and document-oriented systems. Converting JSON to XML is essential when bridging modern stacks with legacy or enterprise platforms.
Why convert JSON to XML?
Many enterprise systems — banking, government, healthcare — only accept XML. Generating XML from your JSON data lets you integrate with SOAP services, build XML-based EDI documents, produce RSS/Atom feeds, or feed data into XSLT pipelines without rewriting your data layer.
How our converter maps JSON to XML
JSON objects become XML elements named after their keys. Arrays become repeated <item> elements. Strings, numbers, and booleans become text content. Null values become self-closing <null/> tags. All special characters (&, <, >, ", ') are properly escaped to keep the XML well-formed.
Handling invalid XML names
XML element names must start with a letter or underscore and contain only letters, digits, hyphens, underscores, and periods. Our converter automatically sanitizes JSON keys with invalid characters — replacing them with underscores and prefixing leading digits.
Conversion rules at a glance
- Object → <key>...</key> nested elements
- Array → repeated <item>...</item> elements
- String → escaped XML text content
- Number / Boolean → literal text
- Null → <null/> self-closing tag
- Invalid key chars → underscores
