XML utilities

This topic describes the common XML utilities available with BMC Atrium Orchestrator Content.

Important

The XML utilities are compatible only with BMC Atrium Orchestrator Platform 7.9 and later. On the BMC Atrium Orchestrator peers, the json-20160316j6.jar file is located in the /tomcat/webapps/baocdp/WEB-INF/lib folder.

Convert JSON to XML

This utility converts JSON to XML. To use this utility, the json.jar file must be installed on your BMC Atrium Orchestrator peers and BMC Atrium Orchestrator Development Studio.

Note

While running the Convert JSON to XML utility, if the conversion does not occur and the workflow returns the same JSON-formatted string, this may be due to an incorrect library function being called. For more information on resolving this issue, see the BMC Knowledge Article 000131175: Atrium Orchestrator's "Convert JSON to XML" workflow returns JSON, not XML.
