THE SOLUTION

Smart conversion with Orchestria

Orchestria uses AI to create a workflow that converts your XML into clean JSON.

  • Namespace handling : strip or preserve prefixes as specified in your prompt
  • Attribute mapping : define conventions like @id or _id via your output sample
  • Array detection : repeated elements automatically become JSON arrays
  • Type conversion : numeric strings, booleans and dates typed correctly
  • Selective extraction : pull only the data you need using natural language

Provide an XML sample, expected JSON output and a prompt. Orchestria generates a reusable transformation.

Why convert XML to JSON?

XML powered enterprise data exchange for decades. Today, modern applications overwhelmingly favor JSON.

  • REST API migration : replace legacy SOAP services with lightweight JSON endpoints
  • Smaller payloads : JSON is 30-50% more compact than equivalent XML
  • Frontend consumption : JavaScript parses JSON natively without extra libraries
  • Microservices : inter-service messaging relies on JSON across the board

Orchestria bridges legacy XML systems and modern JSON-based applications.

Handling XML namespaces and attributes

XML to JSON conversion is far from trivial due to features with no JSON equivalent.

  • Namespaces : prefixes like xmlns:soap must be handled or stripped
  • Attributes vs. elements : <item id="42"> requires a mapping strategy
  • Mixed content : text and child nodes in the same element
  • Repeated elements : must become arrays, but single occurrences stay as objects
  • CDATA sections : raw text in <![CDATA[...]]> needs special extraction

These complexities make manual conversion scripts fragile across different XML schemas.

HOW IT WORKS

How it works

01

Provide input and output samples

Paste a sample of your XML document as input, and provide the expected JSON structure as output. This tells Orchestria exactly how you want the mapping to work.
02

Describe the transformation

Write a prompt specifying how to handle namespaces, attributes, repeated elements, and data types. Tell the AI your preferred JSON mapping strategy.
03

Execute and reuse via API

Orchestria generates a workflow that performs the conversion. Run it instantly and reuse it via API for all your future XML-to-JSON transformations.

The Excel equivalent

Traditional method

In Excel, you would need to use Power Query or write a VBA macro to parse XML, manually map attributes and elements, and handle namespaces. Each new XML schema requires starting from scratch.

With Orchestria

With Orchestria, provide your XML sample and expected JSON output, describe the transformation in a prompt, and the AI generates a reusable transformation. Namespaces, attributes, and repeated elements are handled exactly as you specify.
