Direct answer

To use xml-to-json, start with a small representative input, convert between formats without assuming every feature transfers, and inspect the result before relying on it.

Key takeaways

  • Purpose: convert between formats without assuming every feature transfers.
  • Check: well-formed nesting, namespaces, attributes and character escaping.
  • Limitation: well-formed XML can still fail an external schema.

Common mistakes

  • Assuming the output is correct because the operation completed. Instead, inspect well-formed nesting, namespaces, attributes and character escaping.
  • Using production or confidential material as the first test. Use a short XML document with nested elements and attributes instead.
  • Ignoring compatibility: well-formed XML can still fail an external schema.
