DOCUMENT TRANSFORMATION · Workflow idea

Make XML information easier to work with in structured records.

Take a supplied XML document and organize its content as JSON. Keep attribute details distinct from the document’s other values so the resulting information remains clear to the next person or approved process.

A useful direction.

A supplied document containing structured XML information

“Convert the document’s information into JSON and preserve XML attributes in a separate, clearly organized part of the result.”
An example request · Make it specific to your team.

02 / The work

5 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Transforms XML information into an organized JSON record while preserving attributes separately from other content.

  1. Choose an XML document

    Provide the XML document whose information should be made available as structured data.

  2. Organize the document’s values

    Represent the document content in a consistent JSON structure that is easier to review and use.

  3. Preserve attribute information

    Keep attributes available in a separate part of the resulting record rather than mixing them with other values.

  4. Review the converted information

    Compare the result with the source document and check that important values and attributes remain clear.

  5. Prepare the record for its intended use

    Make the reviewed structured information available to the approved person or next step.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

A structured JSON record containing the document’s values and a separate representation of its attributes.

The handoff

A structured JSON record containing the document’s values and a separate representation of its attributes.

Keep in mind

Different documents can represent similar information in different ways. Review a sample conversion and confirm that the resulting structure suits the intended use.

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.
