XSD to JSON Schema

If you want to impose restrictions on the JSON structure, while also benefiting from Oxygen's JSON editing support (such as content completion, validation, and documentation), you need to have a JSON schema attached to your JSON document. If you already have an XML Schema and you want to generate a similar JSON Schema, then you can use the XSD to JSON Schema converter tool.
