JSON to XML Converter

Turn JSON files into XML without installing anything. The target format on this page is already set to XML, so a single file or a whole folder is one press of Convert away.

Files travel over TLS and are deleted from the server as soon as the conversion finishes.

JSON and XML: what actually changes

JSON is nested key/value data, the lingua franca of web APIs. XML is verbose, schema-validated markup still standard in enterprise and publishing.

Records are read out of the JSON with their structure intact and written as XML, so this is a real parse rather than a text substitution — quoting, escaping and character encoding are all handled for you. The XML you get back keeps attributes, namespaces and validation against a schema, and gives up brevity. The thing to check before you rely on the output is typing: dates, leading zeros and very large integers are where formats disagree.

How it goes3 steps

  1. Add your JSON files
    Drop them onto the box above or click Select File. Add as many .json files as you like — the whole batch converts in one go, and duplicates are ignored.
  2. Confirm XML as the output
    XML is already selected as the target format on this page. Check the delimiter and encoding options if your data is unusual.
  3. Download your XML
    Hit Convert and grab the finished XML files individually or as a single ZIP. Everything is deleted from the server once you have them.
