About the JSON to XML Converter
Need to turn a JSON file into XML? This free converter changes JSON data files into XML in a few seconds, right in your browser. People usually convert because JSON is hard for non-developers to read and does not open in Excel, while XML gives you well-formed XML. XML files open in browsers, VS Code, Excel (XML import), Java and .NET tools.
The file is parsed with well-tested open-source parsers (the browser's JSON and XML parsers, js-yaml and smol-toml) and written back out as valid XML. Because everything happens on your own device, your data files are never uploaded, stored or seen by anyone else, which makes it safe for customer lists, salary sheets, GST data and API exports.
What to expect: objects, lists, numbers, booleans and text keep their structure and types; invalid input is reported with the line of the problem so you can fix it.
How to use the JSON to XML Converter
- Click "Choose files" or drag your JSON data files onto the box. You can add several at once.
- Set the name of the root element.
- Press "Convert to XML". The conversion runs on your device and shows its progress.
- Download each XML file, or use "Download all (ZIP)" when you converted several.
- Open the result in browsers or VS Code to check it; your original JSON is never changed.
Tips & benchmarks
- Arrays become repeated elements and keys that are not valid XML names are made safe automatically.
- Validate the output in your target tool (for example kubectl, Cargo or your API client) before deploying it.
- Keep the file name simple (letters, numbers and hyphens) if you plan to upload the XML to a website or government portal.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert JSON to XML?
Click "Choose files", select your JSON data files, adjust the options if you want, and press "Convert to XML". The XML downloads immediately; with several files you can download everything as one ZIP.
Is this JSON to XML converter free and safe?
Yes. It is completely free, with no sign-up, no daily limit and no watermark. The conversion runs inside your browser, so your data files never leave your phone or computer and nothing is stored on News Appite's servers.
What happens to nested data?
Nothing is lost: objects, lists and values map one-to-one between JSON and XML. Comments are not carried over because most formats cannot store them.
Can I convert several JSON files at once?
Yes. Add as many JSON files as you like; they are converted one after another and you can download them individually or together as a ZIP.
Does it work on iPhone, Android and Mac?
Yes. The converter works in any modern browser, including Chrome, Safari, Edge and Firefox, on Android, iPhone, iPad, Windows, macOS and Linux. No app is needed.
What is the difference between JSON and XML?
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a structured data (text) best suited to APIs, web and mobile apps, configuration and MongoDB or Firebase data. XML (Extensible Markup Language) is a structured markup data best suited to enterprise integrations, RSS and sitemaps, SOAP APIs and regulated data exchange.
Is there a file size limit?
There is no upload limit, because nothing is uploaded. The practical limit is your device's memory: files of a few hundred megabytes work on most computers, and phones handle smaller files comfortably.
How do I convert JSON to XML in Python?
Load the data (json.load or yaml.safe_load) and write it with xmltodict.unparse({"root": data}, pretty=True). If you just need the file, this converter does it in the browser without writing any code.

What is a JSON file?
JSON is the data format of the modern web: almost every API, app configuration and NoSQL database speaks it. It represents objects, arrays, numbers and text in a compact, human-readable way.
What is a XML file?
XML is a W3C standard from 1998 for describing structured data with tags. It powers RSS feeds, sitemaps, SOAP APIs, Office files and many government and banking data exchanges, including e-invoicing and GST schemas.
