MBS( "JSON.ToXML"; json { ; RootNodeName } ) More

| RootNodeName | The root node name to use. | "test" | Optional |
Result
Returns XML text or error.
Description
Converts JSON to XML.Walks over nodes in JSON and adds them to XML.
This function does not perfectly reverse XML.ToJSON, but it comes close.
Changes in version 10.4: If root node name parameter is empty and the JSON is an object with one entry, we take this as root element.
Examples
Convert some JSON:
MBS( "JSON.ToXML"; "{\"first\": \"Peter\", \"age\": 38}"; "test" )
Example result:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<test>
<first>Peter</first>
<age>38</age>
</test>
