XML (Extensible Markup Language) remains a staple for structured data exchange, while JSON is now the default for lightweight, web‑friendly integrations. If you’re modernizing legacy systems, integrating third‑party APIs, or streamlining data pipelines, converting XML to JSON can dramatically simplify your architecture. With Aspose.Cells Cloud SDK for .NET, you can automate this transformation with a few lines of C#.

Cloud API for XML to JSON

Aspose.Cells Cloud SDK for .NET exposes REST endpoints for spreadsheet and structured‑data processing—including converting XML to JSON. You can upload your XML to cloud storage and request JSON output in a single API call, enabling easy integration with web apps, functions, and microservices.

Install the .NET SDK

Add the package using the .NET CLI or Package Manager:

# .NET CLI
dotnet add package Aspose.Cells-Cloud --version 24.9.0

# Package Manager
Install-Package Aspose.Cells-Cloud -Version 24.9.0

Convert XML to JSON in C#

Given below are the details on how we can accomplish the XML to JSON conversion using C# .NET:

  1. Authenticates the SDK
  2. Upload the XML to cloud storage
  3. Perform conversion to JSON.

Create an instance of CellsApi while providing client credentials as arguments.

CellsApi api = new CellsApi(clientId,clientSecret);

Upload the input XML to cloud storage using uploadFile(…) method.

cellsInstance.UploadFile("input.xml", inputFile);

Call cellsWorkbookGetWorkbook(…) API to perform the XML to JSON conversion. The resultant JSON is then stored in cloud storage.

var response = cellsInstance.Cell.sWorkbookGetWorkbook(input.xml,null, format: "CSV", null, null, null, null, "myResultant.csv", null,null);

Transform XML to JSON via cURL

The conversion of XML to JSON using Aspose.Cells Cloud and cURL commands are a quick and efficient way to handle data transformation in the cloud. So if you’re scripting or testing endpoints, you can call the REST API directly.

Step 1 – Get an access token:

curl -v "https://api.aspose.cloud/connect/token" \
 -X POST \
 -d "grant_type=client_credentials&client_id=XXXXXXX-b195-426c-85f7-XXXXXXXX&client_secret=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" \
 -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
 -H "Accept: application/json"

Step 2 – Convert XML → JSON:

curl -v "https://api.aspose.cloud/v3.0/cells/{sourceFile}/SaveAs?newfilename={myResultant}&isAutoFitRows=false&isAutoFitColumns=false&checkExcelRestriction=false" \
-X POST \
-H "accept: application/json" \
-H "authorization: Bearer {accessToken}" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d "{ \"SaveFormat\": \"json\",}"

Replace sourceFile with XML file, myResultant with the name of resultant JSON and accessToken with JWT access token generated above.

Save resultant JSON on local If you desire to save the resultant JSON schema to the local drive, please use the following cURL command:

curl -v "https://api.aspose.cloud/v3.0/cells/resultantFile.json?format=JSON&isAutoFit=false&onlySaveTable=false" \
-X GET \
-H "accept: application/json" \
-H "authorization: Bearer {accessToken}" \
-o "output.json"
