What is JSON to XML Converter?
Need to convert your JSON to XML? This tool does that instantly. XML is widely used for data exchange and configuration, while JSON is standard for modern APIs. Convert between them whenever you need.
Both JSON and XML are popular data formats. XML is often used in enterprise systems, SOAP APIs, or legacy integrations, while JSON is standard for REST APIs. The converter handles the conversion perfectly, preserving all your data structure.
Everything happens in your browser – your data stays private. Convert, download, and use your XML file right away.
What Makes This Tool Different
Automatic Conversion
Paste JSON and get XML instantly. Handles all the syntax differences – objects become elements, arrays become repeated elements, everything gets converted correctly.
Customizable Root Element
Set your own root element name. Default is "root", but you can change it to whatever makes sense for your XML structure.
XML Declaration Option
Include or exclude the XML declaration (<?xml version="1.0"?>). Toggle it on or off depending on your needs.
File Upload Support
Got a big file? Just upload it. Works great for converting those massive JSON configs or API responses without copy-pasting.
Download XML
One click to download your XML file. Drop it into your project, use it in SOAP APIs, or any XML-based system.
Syntax Highlighting
Beautiful syntax highlighting for both JSON input and XML output. Visual feedback helps you verify the conversion looks right.
How It Works
Paste or Upload JSON
Paste your JSON into the left editor, or click "Upload" to load a file. The JSON should be valid – objects, arrays, nested structures all work. You can also click "Sample" to see an example.
Configure Settings (Optional)
Click the settings button to customize the root element name or toggle the XML declaration. These settings help you control how the XML is structured.
Download or Copy
Click "Download" to save the XML file, or "Copy" to copy it to your clipboard. The XML is ready to use in your applications or APIs.
When You'd Actually Use This
API Integration
Convert JSON API responses to XML for SOAP APIs or legacy systems that require XML format. Great for integrating modern APIs with older systems.
Data Migration
Migrate JSON data to XML-based systems. Convert data formats when moving between systems or integrating with enterprise applications.
Format Compatibility
Some systems require XML format. Convert your JSON data to XML when working with tools or systems that only accept XML.
Enterprise Integration
Many enterprise systems use XML. Convert JSON to XML when integrating with legacy systems, SOAP services, or enterprise applications.
Common Questions
Is my JSON data stored?
Nope. Everything happens right in your browser. Your JSON never leaves your computer – we don't even see it.
What JSON formats work?
The converter works with any valid JSON structure – objects, arrays, nested objects, and mixed types. It analyzes the structure and converts it to equivalent XML.
How are nested objects handled?
Nested objects become nested XML elements. Arrays become repeated elements with the same name. All data types (strings, numbers, booleans, null) are preserved correctly.
Can I convert XML back to JSON?
Yep. Use our XML to JSON converter to convert XML files back to JSON format.
What if my JSON has special characters?
Special characters are properly escaped in XML. Strings with quotes, angle brackets, or other XML syntax characters are handled correctly.
Does it work with large datasets?
Yep. Since everything happens in your browser, it depends on your device. Small to medium JSON structures convert instantly. Really huge structures might take a few seconds.
