How are arrays converted?

Each array item becomes a repeated sibling element using the parent key as its tag name.

What if my JSON keys aren't valid XML tag names?

Invalid tag names automatically fall back to a generic element.

Are special characters escaped?

Yes, characters like &, , and quotes are escaped so the XML output is always valid.

About the JSON to XML

Transform JSON objects and arrays into XML with a configurable root element name and indentation. Special characters are escaped automatically so the output is always valid XML.

Examples

Simple object

{"name":"Ada"}

Output

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<root>
  <name>Ada</name>
</root>
