### Definition <a href="#definition" id="definition"></a>

The **XML** tool module, standard module for use in any flow, was created to convert data from the **XML** file format to **JSON** and vice versa.

The XML module consists of two operations, **Convert XML to JSON** and **Convert JSON to XML**.

### Configuring the XML module <a href="#configuring-the-xml-module" id="configuring-the-xml-module"></a>

The **XML** module appears in the **Tools** option when editing a flow. When added to the flow, it offers two operations:

**Convert XML to JSON**: converts an XML spreadsheet to JSON format.

**Convert JSON to XML**: converts a spreadsheet in JSON to XML format

#### Convert XML to JSON operation <a href="#convert-xml-to-json-operation" id="convert-xml-to-json-operation"></a>

This operation allows you to convert an **XML** table with different items (products, customers, etc.) into JSON format, so that this information can be used later in the flow.

To use this option, choose "**Convert XML to JSON"** and then click "**Save"**.

To configure the variables, click on "**Edit**" in the newly created component.

Where:

* **XML**: enter the code in XML format that needs to be converted
* **Attribute symbol:** enter the desired symbol for the JSON code; by default, "$" (dollar sign) is used
* **Character symbol:** enter the desired symbol for the JSON code; by default, "\_" (underline) is used.
* **XML CONVERTED TO JSON**: here, after you click on the **Validate** button, the XML converted to JSON format will be displayed

XML example:

```markup
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<root>
   <element>
      <id>1</id>
      <name>Jaleco</name>

#### Convert JSON to XML operation <a href="#convert-json-to-xml-operation" id="convert-json-to-xml-operation"></a>

This operation allows you to convert a JSON table with different items (products, customers, etc.) into XML format, so that this information can be used later in the flow.

To use this option, choose "**Convert JSON to XLM"** and then click "**Save"**.

To configure the variables, click on "**Edit**" in the newly created component.

<figure><img src="/files/IrwplgckbuZnRkGV9yO9" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Where:

* **Attribute symbol:** enter the desired symbol for the JSON code; by default, "$" (dollar sign) is used.
* **Character symbol:** enter the desired symbol for the JSON code; by default, "\_" (underline) is used.
* **JSON**: enter the code in JSON format that needs to be converted
* **JSON CONVERTED TO XML**: here, after you click on the "**Validate"** button, the JSON converted to XML format will be displayed.

JSON example:

```json
[
   {
      "id":1,
      "name":"Jaleco",
      "description":"Jaleco de alta qualidade fabricado para atender aos clientes mais exigentes",
      "price":"R$ 999,99",
      "available":true
   },
   {
      "id":2,
      "name":"Avental",
      "description":"Jaleco de alta qualidade fabricado para atender aos clientes mais exigentes",
      "price":"R$ 999,99",
      "available":true
   },
   {
      "id":3,
      "name":"Touca",
      "description":"Jaleco de alta qualidade fabricado para atender aos clientes mais exigentes",
      "price":"R$ 999,99",
      "available":true
   },
   {
      "id":4,
      "name":"Fronha",
      "description":"Jaleco de alta qualidade fabricado para atender aos clientes mais exigentes",
      "price":"R$ 999,99",
      "available":true
   },
   {
      "id":5,
      "name":"Embalagem",
      "description":"Jaleco de alta qualidade fabricado para atender aos clientes mais exigentes",
      "price":"R$ 999,99",
      "available":true
   },
   {
      "id":6,
      "name":"Porta talher",
      "description":"Jaleco de alta qualidade fabricado para atender aos clientes mais exigentes",
      "price":"R$ 999,99",
      "available":true
   },
   {
      "id":7,
      "name":"Porta absorvente",
      "description":"Jaleco de alta qualidade fabricado para atender aos clientes mais exigentes",
      "price":"R$ 999,99",
      "available":true
   }
]
```

To finish configuring the module, click on "**Save**".

**Parameters**

Each operation has its own parameter, which corresponds to the product of the conversion: **JSON** for the **Convert XML to JSON** operation and **XML** for the **Convert JSON to XML** operation. When used, they produce the resulting code, which can later be manipulated by the [**Data Transformation**](/english/skyone-studio/integrations/flows/tool-modules/data-transform-module.md) module or by using a [**SMOP**](/english/skyone-studio/integrations/flows/data-operations/smop-small-operations.md).

Both parameters will appear on the left-hand side of the configuration modal for each operation in the flow, as long as the operations are all connected by lines in the flow.
