Overview

Converts an XML string into a JSON string. In combination with a!fromJson, this allows for parsing an XML string into an Appian Dictionary.

Update 1.0.1

  • Updated to the latest org.json library.
    • No longer parses numbers leading with 0 as octet numbers
    • Adds 'stringsOnly' optional boolean parameter to xmltojson which force casts all XML values to strings, rather than trying to parse booleans and numbers.

  • , there isn't currently any documentation outside of the rule instructions. You can call the function by using "fn!xmltojson", and pass in the following parameters:

    xml: The string containing the xml to parse

    stringsOnly (Boolean): If true, all numbers and booleans are parsed as strings, useful if you have large or very precise numbers you don't want automatically parsed when converting from JSON to an Appian object.

    removeNamespace (Boolean): If true, all namespaces will be stripped and xmlns tags are removed (simplifies the data returned)
