What is JSON to XML Converter?

This JSON to XML converter emits one element per object key, repeats the same tag name for every item in an array, and escapes special characters as XML entities. It is a practical way to integrate with legacy systems whose contract is still XML, and it runs entirely in your browser.

How to use JSON to XML Converter

  1. 1Paste your JSON.
  2. 2Enter a root element name. The default is root.
  3. 3Copy the XML output. The XML declaration is already included.

Frequently asked questions

What happens if a JSON key contains a hyphen or a space?+

It is emitted verbatim as the tag name, but XML places strict rules on element names: they cannot contain spaces and cannot begin with a digit. Rename those keys on the JSON side first, otherwise no parser will accept the resulting XML.

Can it generate XML that uses attributes?+

Every JSON key becomes a child element here. If you need attributes, reshape the data into the @-prefixed convention that the XML to JSON tool produces and convert it with that mapping in mind.
