What is JSON?
JSON is the standard format for modern APIs and data exchange. Its simple syntax makes it easy to work with, but some legacy systems still require XML format.
What is XML?
XML is a verbose but powerful markup language. While less common in new projects, it's still required for SOAP web services, many enterprise systems, and document formats like SVG and RSS.
Common Use Cases
Convert JSON to XML when integrating with SOAP APIs, generating XML configuration files, creating RSS feeds, or working with systems that only accept XML input.
Frequently Asked Questions
How are JSON arrays converted to XML?

Is the XML output valid and well-formed?
Yes, the converter generates valid, well-formed XML with proper escaping of special characters.
Can I specify a root element?
If your JSON doesn't have a single root object, the converter will wrap it in a <root> element automatically.
