XML Module

Last updated
The XML tool module, standard module for use in any flow, was created to convert data from the XML file format to JSON and vice versa.
The XML module consists of two operations, Convert XML to JSON and Convert JSON to XML.
The XML module appears in the Tools option when editing a flow. When added to the flow, it offers two operations:
Convert XML to JSON: converts an XML spreadsheet to JSON format.
Convert JSON to XML: converts a spreadsheet in JSON to XML format
This operation allows you to convert an XML table with different items (products, customers, etc.) into JSON format, so that this information can be used later in the flow.
To use this option, choose "Convert XML to JSON" and then click "Save".
To configure the variables, click on "Edit" in the newly created component.
Where:
XML: enter the code in XML format that needs to be converted
Attribute symbol: enter the desired symbol for the JSON code; by default, "$" (dollar sign) is used
Character symbol: enter the desired symbol for the JSON code; by default, "_" (underline) is used.
XML CONVERTED TO JSON: here, after you click on the Validate button, the XML converted to JSON format will be displayed

To finish configuring the module, click on "Save".
Parameters
Both parameters will appear on the left-hand side of the configuration modal for each operation in the flow, as long as the operations are all connected by lines in the flow.
Each operation has its own parameter, which corresponds to the product of the conversion: JSON for the Convert XML to JSON operation and XML for the Convert JSON to XML operation. When used, they produce the resulting code, which can later be manipulated by the module or by using a .
