What is TOON to XML Converter?

Need to convert your TOON (Token-Oriented Object Notation) data to XML format? This tool converts TOON to XML instantly. Perfect for integrating with systems that require XML, working with SOAP APIs, or using XML-based configuration files.

XML (eXtensible Markup Language) is widely used for data exchange, configuration files, and web services. Our converter decodes your TOON data and transforms it into well-formed XML with proper structure, escaping, and formatting. Arrays become XML elements, objects become nested tags, and values are properly escaped.

Everything happens in your browser – your data stays private. Convert, download, and use your XML file right away. You can also validate your TOON first using our TOON Validator or convert it to JSON with our TOON to JSON converter.

What Makes This Tool Different

Well-Formed XML

Generates valid, well-formed XML that follows XML standards. Proper nesting, closing tags, and structure ensure compatibility with any XML parser or tool.

Proper Escaping

Special characters like <, >, &, quotes, and apostrophes are properly escaped according to XML standards. Your data stays safe and valid.

Pretty Formatting

The XML output is beautifully formatted with proper indentation (2 spaces) and line breaks. Easy to read, easy to debug, ready to use.

File Upload Support

Got a TOON file? Just upload it. Works with .toon and .txt files. No need to copy-paste – just drag and drop or click upload.

Download XML

One click to download your converted XML as a .xml file. Perfect for saving, sharing, or importing into XML-compatible systems.

Handles All Types

Supports arrays, objects, nested structures, primitives, and mixed data types. Converts everything from simple values to complex hierarchical data.

How It Works

1

Paste or Upload TOON

Paste your TOON data into the left editor, or click "Upload" to load a file. You can also click "Sample" to see example TOON format. The tool accepts any valid TOON structure.

2

Automatic Conversion

As soon as you paste, the converter processes your TOON and displays the converted XML on the right. Arrays become XML elements, objects become nested tags, and values are properly escaped.

3

Copy or Download

Click "Copy" to copy the XML to your clipboard, or "Download" to save it as a .xml file. The XML is properly formatted and ready to use in any XML-compatible system.

When You'd Actually Use This

SOAP APIs

Working with SOAP web services that require XML? Convert your TOON data to XML format for seamless integration with SOAP APIs and XML-based web services.

Configuration Files

Many applications use XML for configuration files. Convert TOON data to XML for use in XML-based config systems, build tools, or deployment configurations.

Data Exchange

Exchanging data with systems that only accept XML? Convert TOON to XML for universal compatibility. XML is widely supported across different platforms and languages.

Legacy Systems

Integrating with legacy systems that require XML format? Convert TOON data to XML for compatibility with older systems, databases, or enterprise applications.

Common Questions

Is my TOON data stored?

No. All conversion happens in your browser using the @toon-format/toon library. Your data never leaves your computer.

What TOON formats are supported?

We support all valid TOON formats according to the TOON specification. Arrays, objects, tabular data, nested structures, primitives – everything that TOON supports.

Is the XML valid?

Yes! The generated XML is well-formed and valid according to XML standards. It includes proper XML declaration, escaping, and structure that any XML parser can handle.

How are special characters handled?

Special XML characters (<, >, &, quotes, apostrophes) are properly escaped using XML entities. This ensures the XML is valid and safe to parse.

Can I convert XML back to TOON?

Yes. First convert XML to JSON using our XML to JSON converter, then convert JSON to TOON using our JSON to TOON converter.

Does it work with large datasets?

Yes. Since everything happens in your browser, it depends on your device. Small files convert instantly. Very large files (10MB+) might take a few seconds, but they'll still work.
