Catalog feed — XML in, JSON out, XML back

A supplier still speaks XML: convert their product feed to JSON, enrich it with Transform, and answer back in their dialect with JSON→XML.

What’s inside

5 nodes — every type links to its full reference page.

Step	Node	Type
Supplier XML	Inject	`input.inject`
XML → JSON	XML To JSON	`processing.xml-to-json`
Enrich	Transform	`processing.transform`
JSON → XML	JSON To XML	`processing.json-to-xml`
XML reply	Console	`utility.console`

Import it

Studio → Import — paste the JSON below (or the URL /docs/templates/catalog-feed-xml-in-json-out-xml-back.json).

Or ask the AI Copilot with the JSON pasted after the phrase:

import this workflow json into a new workflow named "Catalog feed — XML in, JSON out, XML back"

Any credentials the nodes need are ${credential.…} references — add them once in Admin → Credentials and the template picks them up. Nothing secret ships in a template.
