Also is there a way we can add custom indent spacing to the resulting xml file?
Please share a sample of your data so we can reproduce your issue.

Yes, you can use pretty=True
+ indent="<custom indent>"
to specify which string to use for indentation:
doc = { "doc": { "a": 1, "b": 2 } }
print(xmltodict.unparse(doc, pretty=True, indent=" ")) # one char
print(xmltodict.unparse(doc, pretty=True, indent="\t\t")) # two tabs
Results:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<doc>
<a>1</a>
<b>2</b>
</doc>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<doc>
<a>1</a>
<b>2</b>
</doc>
When using the xmltodict.unparse() is a possibility of stating what the root element will be other than root when generating xml files. Thank you a response would be duly appreciated. Also anytime I convert to form xmltodict, the values are changed from their actual values to string values, which is not what I intend, I need all the values to be exact in their conversion, is there away this is also done that I am not getting. Thank you.
