Frequently Asked Questions

How does JSON to XML conversion work?

Each JSON object key becomes an XML element. Arrays become repeated sibling elements with the same tag name. Primitive values become text content of their parent element.

What are the limitations?

JSON keys that start with numbers or contain spaces are not valid XML tag names. The tool sanitises these automatically by prefixing invalid keys with an underscore.

Does the output include an XML declaration?

Yes — the output includes <?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?> at the top for a complete, valid XML document.

How are JSON arrays converted?

Each array item becomes a repeated child element. For example, [\"a\",\"b\"] inside key \"colors\" becomes <colors>a</colors><colors>b</colors>.

Is my data private?

Yes. All conversion happens in your browser. Nothing is uploaded to any server.

Can I convert the XML back to JSON?

Not directly in this tool — but our XML to CSV Converter and other tools in this family can help with further transformations.
