Json.NET: convert JSON string to XML or XML to JSON string

Jayden Bell317429-May-2013
Hi Everyone,

I started to use Json.NET to convert a string in JSON format to object or vice-versa. I am not sure in the JSON.NET framework, is it possible to convert a string in 

JSON to XML format and vice-versa?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Jayden!

Yes. Using the JsonConvert class which contains helper methods for this precise purpose:

// To convert an XML node contained in string xml into a JSON string   
XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.LoadXml(xml);
string jsonText = JsonConvert.SerializeXmlNode(doc);

// To convert JSON text contained in string json into an XML node
XmlDocument doc = (XmlDocument)JsonConvert.DeserializeXmlNode(json);
