Free online JSON to XML Converter tool to convert JSON data to XML format. Transform JSON structures to XML markup instantly. All conversion happens locally in your browser.

What is JSON to XML Converter?
JSON to XML converts a JSON document into an equivalent XML representation. Useful when you're integrating with a legacy SOAP service, an XML-only API, or generating an XML config from a JSON source of truth.
Why use this tool?
- Lightweight page weight that loads quickly even on slow connections
- Works on desktop, tablet, and mobile in any modern browser
- Stable behavior across visits — no surprise version drift
- Round-trips cleanly — convert there and back without losing precision or fidelity
- Strict and lenient parser modes for handling messy real-world data
How to use
- Paste JSON in the input
- Click Convert — equivalent XML appears below
- Choose root-element and indentation options
- Use it when integrating with legacy systems that only consume XML
Examples
SOAP request body
Build the payload as JSON for readability, then convert to XML at the last step — your code keeps the modern format.
XML config from JSON spec
Keep tool configs in version-friendly JSON; export to XML during build for tools that demand the older format.
Common use cases
- Producing XML payloads for legacy SOAP services
- Generating XML configs from JSON sources
- Converting JSON exports for systems with XML-only import paths
- Educational comparisons of JSON vs XML structure
Troubleshooting
- Arrays produce repeated tags — is that right?
- Yes — XML has no native array; arrays map to repeated elements with the same tag name. Some readers expect a wrapper element; adjust the structure or use a transform afterwards.
- Numbers / booleans become strings.
- XML doesn't track types — every value is text. If the downstream consumer needs typed values, it must apply its own schema.
