问题:

I am using WSO2 ESB and trying to convert my XML payload to Json.

<property name="messageType" value="application/json" scope="axis2"/>

The above property mediator convert my xml to json and it all works fine.

The issue is with the child nodes in my XML payload.

When the xml is

<users>     <user>user1</user>     <user>user2</user> </users>

it gets converted to

"users": {     "user": [         "user1", "user2"     ] }

so my rest full endpoint recieving the json payload which is expecting a list 'user' works fine.

but when the xml is

<users>     <user>user1</user> </users>

the converted json looks like this,

"users": {     "user": "user1" }

So the restfull endpoint which is expecting a list of 'user' is not getting a list rather a string is sent and the datatype mismatch causes endpoint not found.

If further tried,

<Data xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:json="http://james.newtonking.com/projects/json">     <users>         <user json:Array="true">user1</user>     </users> </Data>

This converts gives a json as,

 {   "Data": {     "users": {       "user": {         "@Array": "true",         "$": "user1"       }     }   } }

What I need is,

 {   "Data": {     "users": {       "user": {         [         "user1"         ]       }     }   } }

After Jay's suggestion,

Thanks Jay,

After your inputs, I tried something but I am stuck at some point. This is what I am trying,

mc.setPayloadJSON(             {                 "someIds" : {                     "someIdList" : (vUIdLen &gt; 1 ? mc.getProperty("someIdList") : "["+someIdList+"]")                 }             });</script>

I am checking the lenth of the child nodes and if it is greater than 1 than I am using the earlier captured value for that node which is ["abc","pqr"] and if it is less than or = 1 than i am using the single json value and constructing it within "["+someIdList+"]" but either of them are not getting appended. it is giving error as "The script engine returned an error executing the inlined js script function mediate".

How do I append this properly.

(vUIdLen &gt; 1 ? mc.getProperty("someIdList") : "["+someIdList+"]")

The value of mc.getProperty("someIdList") above is ["abc","pqr"] and value of someIdList in "["+someIdList+"]" comes as abc.

Please suggest.

There is another solution for this without using script mediator, you can add

<?xml-multiple?>

processing instruction to your payload. as follows;

<users>     <?xml-multiple?>     <user>user1</user> </users>

this will create json array for users.

{"users": {"user": ["user1"]}}

Hope this will helpful.

Use script mediator to build payload. please refer following links.
