How do I add XML attributes?

Prefix the JSON key with `@_`. `{ "user": { "@_id": 1 } }` becomes ` `.

Is there an XML declaration in the output?

No. Add ` ` at the top of the output if the consuming system requires it.

How are arrays rendered?

Each array item becomes a sibling element with the same tag name as the parent key.

About this tool

Convert a JSON document into an XML equivalent — useful for talking to SOAP endpoints, generating RSS feeds, or feeding legacy systems. Keys prefixed with `@_` become XML attributes. Arrays become repeated sibling elements. The output is indented with 2 spaces. Because JSON documents don't have a mandatory root, if your input has more than one top-level key it will be wrapped in a `<root>` element.

Example

Paste the input on the left and you will get output like this:

Sample JSON

{
  "catalog": {
    "book": [
      { "@_id": 1, "title": "The Pragmatic Programmer", "author": "Hunt" },
      { "@_id": 2, "title": "Refactoring", "author": "Fowler" }
    ]
  }
}

Resulting XML

<catalog>
  <book id="1">
    <title>The Pragmatic Programmer</title>
    <author>Hunt</author>
  </book>
  <book id="2">
    <title>Refactoring</title>
    <author>Fowler</author>
  </book>
</catalog>
