XML to JSON Transformation Sample

This sample demonstrates some message transformation capabilities of the Micro Integrator.

The API constructs a JSON payload after receiving the request as the actual backend requires a JSON message. But the received request is in XML format. Hence, the mediation layer transforms the XML into a JSON by mapping the necessary elements from the request payload. The endpoint returns a JSON message back as the response. Then the JSON response get converted to a XML and responded back to the client.

Deploying the sample

  1. Open the sample by clicking on the XML to JSON Transformation card.
  2. Give a folder location to save the sample.
  3. Build and run the sample in your Micro Integrator.

Running the sample

  1. Once the sample is running you will get a runtime services view with the API swagger definition. You can test the API using the swagger editor or follow step 2 for manual invocation.

  2. Open a terminal and run the following command to invoke the API.

    curl --location --request POST 'http://localhost:8290/laboratory/users' --header 'Content-Type: application/xml' \
--data-raw '<user>
  <name>Sam</name>
  <job>Scientist</job>
</user>'

  3. You can also run the unit test cases defined for this sample.
