This policy allows a user to convert the request/response from the XML format to the JSON format.
The usage of JSON format has been increasing for serializing and transmitting structured data over a network connection such as data transmission between a server and a web application. Since JSON format is not widely adopted by all organizations, and as most of the data exchange is done through XML in earlier networks which have not deployed JSON, conversion from JSON to XML or vice-versa has become essential for data interoperability. The policy serves the need to convert data from the XML format to the JSON format.
Configuration
The properties that have to be configured to use the policy are described below.
