JSON to XML Converter

Convert any JSON to clean XML in your browser. Supports attributes, arrays, custom root, XML declaration. Free and private. 100% free and private.

How to use

  1. Paste JSON — Drop in valid JSON; nested objects and arrays are supported.
  2. Set Root & Options — Pick a root element name, toggle indent and XML declaration.
  3. Copy XML — Use the result for SOAP, RSS, config files, or legacy integrations.

The JSON to XML Converter turns JSON data into clean, well-formed XML — useful for legacy SOAP integrations, RSS feed generation, configuration files, and migrating from JSON APIs to XML-based partners.

Conventions

  • Each JSON key becomes an XML element.
  • JSON arrays become repeated sibling elements.
  • "@attributes" objects become XML attributes.
  • "#text" becomes the element's text content.
  • Keys with invalid XML characters are emitted as <item>.

When to use

  • Generating SOAP payloads from JSON sources.
  • Producing RSS or Atom feeds from a JSON CMS.
  • Exporting JSON config to legacy XML tooling.
  • Building sitemaps from JSON URL lists.

Privacy

Conversion happens entirely in your browser; no payload is uploaded. Safe for internal data, secrets, and customer information.

XML Attributes vs Elements

(a convention from JSON-LD and Badgerfish). The tool supports this convention so you can round-trip XML through JSON without losing the element/attribute distinction." }} />

When XML Is Still the Right Choice

XML beats JSON when you need a strict schema (XSD), namespaces (for vocabulary mixing like Atom or RSS), comments inside data, or mixed content (text with inline tags, like HTML). Otherwise JSON is smaller, faster to parse, and friendlier for JavaScript clients. Convert XML → JSON for modern frontends; convert JSON → XML for legacy backends and document formats." }} />

More Frequently Asked Questions

Does it preserve the original order?

Yes — JSON object insertion order is preserved in the output XML.

What about XML namespaces?

Use the

key to add a namespace; the tool emits it as the standard XML namespace declaration.

Is my JSON sent to a server?

No — conversion is entirely local.

Can the XML be pretty-printed?

Yes — toggle indentation (2-space, 4-space, or none) in the options.

Will it handle nested arrays?

Yes — each array becomes repeated elements, and inner arrays nest the same way.
