ToolsSoup's JSON to XML converter is a free online tool that turns JSON into well-formed XML in one click. It wraps your data in a root element you can name, repeats elements for arrays, escapes special characters, and indents the output cleanly. Everything runs in your browser — no uploads, no sign-up, and nothing ever leaves your device.

      

        
What is a JSON to XML converter?

        
JSON and XML are both formats for structured data, but they look very different: JSON uses braces and brackets, while XML wraps every value in named tags. A JSON to XML converter rewrites your JSON as a tree of XML elements — each object key becomes a tag, and each array produces one repeated tag per item. It is handy when you need to feed JSON data into older systems, SOAP services, RSS feeds, or any tool that only accepts XML.

        
      

      

        
How to convert JSON to XML online

        
Converting JSON with ToolsSoup takes just a few seconds:

        
  1. Paste your JSON into the input box on the left.
  2. Optionally set the name of the root element (the default is root).
  3. Click Convert, then copy the XML or download it as a .xml file.

      

      

        
How are arrays and special characters handled?

        
Each item in a JSON array becomes its own element that repeats the array's key name, so a list of three values produces three sibling tags. Reserved characters such as <, >, and & are automatically escaped to keep the XML valid, and any key that is not a legal XML tag name — for example one containing spaces — is sanitized so the result always parses.

How are JSON arrays converted to XML?

          
Each element of an array becomes a separate XML tag that repeats the array's key. For example, a tags array with two values produces two  elements side by side.

        

        

          
Can I choose the root element name?

          
Yes. Type any name into the Root element field. If you leave it blank, the converter uses root by default.

        

        

          
What happens to keys that aren't valid XML names?

          
Keys with spaces or other characters that XML does not allow in a tag name are sanitized — invalid characters become underscores and names that start with a digit get an underscore prefix — so the output is always well-formed.

        

        

          
Is my data safe?

          
Absolutely. All conversion happens locally in your browser using JavaScript, so your JSON is never sent to or stored on any server.
