Transformations for JSON

The transformations for XML that can be called from ABAP, namely XSL transformations and simple transformations, can also be used for JSON.

• To call a transformation for JSON data as a source, the following XML sources can be specified in the statement CALL TRANSFORMATION:

• A string or internal table with JSON data in character-like or byte-like representation.

• A JSON Reader.

A JSON reader returns data in the JSON XML format. The JSON data specified as a string or in an internal table is also handled like XML representing JSON data JSON-XML format.

• To call a transformation for JSON data as a target, a JSON writer can be specified as an XML target in the statement CALL TRANSFORMATION: A JSON writer expects data in JSON-XML format.

Any XSLT programs and ST programs can be called that can handle JSON-XML:

• If the source is JSON data, the transformation must process JSON-XML as its input.

• If the target is JSON data, the transformation must create JSON-XML.

Self-written transformations must be programmed accordingly. The identity transformation ID is handled appropriately internally.

• Self-Written Transformations

• Identity Transformation
