Deep Nesting

Handles any level of nested objects and arrays. Objects within arrays, arrays within objects, all converted to properly structured XML.

Smart Arrays

Automatically singularizes array element names (users → user, categories → category). Or use a fixed "item" name for all arrays.

Type Awareness

Optional type attributes preserve JSON data types (string, number, boolean, null) in the XML output for lossless round-trip conversion.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert JSON to XML?
Paste your JSON data into the input field and the tool instantly converts it to XML. JSON objects become XML elements, arrays become repeated child elements, and primitive values become text content. You can customize the root element name, indentation, and other formatting options.
How are JSON arrays handled in XML?
JSON arrays become repeated XML elements. For example, "tags": ["php", "laravel"] becomes <tags><tag>php</tag><tag>laravel</tag></tags>. The item name is auto-singularized from the parent key, or you can use a fixed "item" name.
Can I customize the XML root element name?
Yes! Enter any valid XML element name in the "Root Element" field (default: root). You can also choose between 2-space, 4-space, tab indentation, or minified output with no whitespace.
What is the difference between JSON and XML?
JSON uses key-value pairs with a lightweight syntax and is the standard for modern REST APIs. XML uses a tag-based structure and is common in enterprise systems, SOAP web services, RSS feeds, and configuration files like Maven and Android manifests. JSON is typically more compact, while XML supports attributes, namespaces, and schemas.
Does the converter handle nested JSON objects?
Yes! Any level of nesting is fully supported. Nested objects become nested XML elements, arrays of objects become repeated element groups, and mixed structures are handled correctly with proper indentation at every level.
