This tool allows you to instantly convert JSON to XML online with clean, structured output ready for APIs, testing, or data migration.
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data format that stores and exchanges data in a human-readable way. It uses a key–value pair structure and is widely used in web APIs, mobile apps, and server-to-browser communication. JSON is popular because it is easy to read, compact, and supported by almost all modern programming languages.
XML (Extensible Markup Language) is a markup language designed to store and transport data. Unlike JSON, XML uses tags to define elements and structure, making it more verbose but highly flexible. XML is still widely used in enterprise applications, configuration files, and data sharing between systems.
JSON | XML |
---|---|
Uses a lightweight, readable syntax with key-value pairs. | Utilizes a markup language with tags, attributes, and elements. |
Generally considered more readable and easier to comprehend due to its minimalistic syntax. | Can be more verbose and complex, making it less readable compared to JSON. |
Supports a limited set of data types, including strings, numbers, booleans, arrays, and objects. | Supports various data types, including text, numbers, dates, booleans, and more. |
Commonly used for data interchange between web services, APIs, and configuration files. | Historically prevalent in web services, documents, configuration files, and data storage. |
Easier and faster to parse due to its simpler structure, making it more efficient for web applications. | Parsing can be more resource-intensive and complex, especially for large documents. |
Schemas are less formal and usually defined using JSON Schema, allowing for validation of JSON data. | Schemas are typically defined using XML Schema (XSD), providing a formal and rigid structure for validation. |
Offers a more flexible and intuitive way to model data with dynamic nesting and easy array handling. | Provides a more rigid structure due to the predefined schema, making it less flexible for certain use cases. |
Well-suited for modern web development and widely supported by various programming languages and platforms. | Has been around longer and is deeply ingrained in many systems, especially legacy ones. |
Easily integrated with JavaScript, making it a popular choice for front-end development and AJAX-based interactions. | Can be more challenging to work with in web development due to its complex parsing and structure. |
A JSON to XML Converter is a tool that transforms JSON data into XML format for easier integration with systems that require XML.
