Convert JSON to HTML using a JSON Converter

Working with JSON(JavaScript Object Notation) files is a routine job of software developers. This format is widely used due to its rich usage and it can easily be translated into JavaScript. So, you can convert JSON to web page using GroupDocs.Conversion SDKs and REST APIs. Fortunately, you can find SDKs in multiple programming languages but we will use GroupDocs.Conversion Cloud SDK for Node.js to convert JSON to HTML programmatically. Moreover, this JSON converter library can simplify the whole process as it involves the invocation of a couple of API methods. Therefore, let’s start the blog post and go through the whole implementation.

We will cover the following points in this article:

JSON Converter API Installation

The installation process of this JSON converter API is very straightforward. Nothing complex, just run the following command into the terminal/CMD and start leveraging the enterprise-level features.

npm install groupdocs-conversion-cloud

How to Convert JSON to HTML in Node.js Programmatically

After a successful installation, we are all set to convert JSON to HTML in a Node.js-based application. So, we have uploaded a source JSON file to the API cloud dashboard. In fact, you can upload your own source file manually. In addition, if you want to upload a JSON file programmatically, you can call the UploadFile method. Moreover, you may visit this link to learn the code snippet that uploads the file to the API cloud dashboard programmatically.

The following are the steps to perform this action programmatically:

  • Add the groupdocs-conversion-cloud module to your project.
  • Instantiate the instance of the ConvertApi with the API credentials.
  • Create an object of the ConvertSettings class and set the values such as filePath, format, storageName, and outputPath.
  • Initialize the instance of the ConvertDocumentRequest class with the object of the ConvertSettings class.
  • Invoke the convertDocument method to convert JSON to HTML.

Once you run the main file, you will find a newly generated HTML file in the “nodejs-testing” folder in the cloud dashboard. You can see the output of the above code sample in the image below:
