Frequently Asked Questions

XML is required for SOAP web services, legacy enterprise systems, configuration files for older software, and interoperability with Java/.NET applications. YAML is more readable but many established systems still require XML format.

YAML objects become XML elements, arrays become repeated child elements, and scalar values become text content. Keys starting with '@' become XML attributes, and '#text' becomes element text content when combined with attributes.

Yes. Use keys starting with '@' in your YAML to generate XML attributes. For example, '@id: 123' becomes 'id="123"' in the XML output. This follows the BadgerFish convention for JSON/YAML-to-XML mapping.

Use '@xmlns' or '@xmlns:prefix' keys in your YAML to add namespace declarations. These become XML namespace attributes like 'xmlns="http://example.com"' on the appropriate elements.

Arrays are converted to repeated XML elements with the same tag name. Each array item becomes a separate child element, which is the standard XML pattern for collections and lists.

Yes. Perfect for generating SOAP envelopes and messages from YAML configs. Set the root element to 'soap:Envelope', add namespaces, and structure your YAML to match the SOAP schema requirements.

Yes. Choose between 2 spaces, 4 spaces, or tab indentation to format your XML output. Proper indentation makes XML more readable for debugging and version control.

The XML declaration specifies UTF-8 encoding (), which is the most common and widely supported encoding for XML documents.

No. XML has a different comment syntax (), and YAML comments are stripped during parsing. Only the data structure itself is converted to XML.

Yes. Convert modern YAML configurations to XML for integration with SAP, Oracle, legacy middleware, ESBs, and enterprise systems that require XML. Ideal for bridging new and old technologies.
