JSON to XML
Convert JSON data to XML
What is JSON to XML?
JSON to XML is a free online file converter from Farvixo that lets you convert JSON data to XML. Conversion runs in your browser rather than on a server, so files are never uploaded and there is no queue to wait in. No watermark, no size cap and no account — convert as often as you need.
How to use JSON to XML
Drop your file into JSON to XML. Conversion runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.
Pick the format you need. JSON to XML keeps formatting, layout and quality intact rather than flattening the document.
Save the result immediately. No watermark, no file-size cap and no waiting in a queue.
Frequently Asked Questions
How are JSON arrays converted?
Each item becomes a repeated element, since XML has no array type — it expresses lists by repeating an element name. That is why converting back sometimes yields a single object where you had an array of one.
What happens to keys that are not valid XML element names?
Keys starting with a digit or containing spaces are not legal XML names and are sanitised. XML naming is stricter than JSON, so some information about the original key can be lost.
Is special-character escaping handled?
Yes. Ampersands, angle brackets and quotes are escaped so the output is well-formed. Unescaped ampersands are the most common cause of XML that fails to parse.
Is my data sent anywhere?
No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser, so real payloads and config are safe to paste.
Can I set the root element name?
Yes. XML requires a single root element and JSON has no equivalent, so one must be supplied — naming it meaningfully makes the output far easier to work with.

Tips for better results
- Conversion between structurally different formats is approximate. Check the output before relying on it.
- Keep the original file. A converted copy has already lost whatever the target format cannot represent.
- For spreadsheets, confirm number and date formats survived — those are what usually break.
Common problems and how to fix them
Formatting shifted after conversion
The target format cannot represent every feature of the source. Simplify complex layouts before converting.
The file is rejected as unsupported
The extension may not match the actual content. Open it in its native application and re-save it properly.
Non-English text became question marks
An encoding mismatch. Ensure the source is saved as UTF-8 before converting.
