Effortlessly Convert JSON to XML with Customizable Formatting
detail.loadingPreview
Automate your data workflows by seamlessly transforming JSON data into structured XML. This n8n node offers extensive customization options for newlines and empty value handling, ensuring your XML output meets precise requirements.
About This Workflow
This n8n node provides a robust solution for converting JSON data into XML format. Leveraging the power of custom JavaScript, it allows for a highly configurable transformation process. You can precisely control the formatting of your XML by specifying newline characters between top-level elements, array items, object properties, and within tags. Furthermore, the option to remove empty values ensures cleaner and more efficient XML outputs, crucial for data integration and processing tasks. It intelligently handles nested structures, primitive types, and even attempts to format date-like strings into a standard YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss format.
Key Features
- Flexible Newline Control: Define distinct newline characters for various XML structural elements.
- Omit Empty Values: Option to exclude tags with null, undefined, or empty string values.
- Intelligent Data Handling: Recursively processes nested JSON objects and arrays.
- Date Formatting: Automatically converts recognizable date strings into a standardized format.
- Primitive Array Joining: Joins primitive arrays with a dynamically detected, safe delimiter.
How To Use
- Add the 'Code' Node: Drag and drop a 'Code' node into your n8n workflow.
- Set Execution Mode: Configure the node's settings to 'Run Once For Each Item' under 'Mode'.
- Paste the JavaScript: Copy and paste the provided JavaScript code into the 'JS Code' field.
- Configure Settings: Adjust the
REMOVE_EMPTY_VALUES,NEWLINES_TOP_LEVEL,NEWLINES_ARRAY_ITEMS,NEWLINES_OBJECT_PROPERTIES, andNEWLINES_WITHIN_TAGSconstants within the JavaScript code to match your desired XML output format. - Provide JSON Input: Ensure the node receives JSON data as input (e.g., from a previous HTTP Request or JSON node).
- Connect and Execute: Connect the output of your JSON source to this code node and run your workflow. The output will be the generated XML.
