XML Output

Formatted XML will appear here...
  • Validation runs via the browser's native DOMParser — no remote schema fetched.
  • Self-closing tags (<br/>) and processing instructions (<?xml…?>) are preserved.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it validate the XML?

Yes. Invalid XML is detected with clear error messages.

Can I minify XML?

Yes. Toggle between beautified and minified output.

Is it safe to paste production data?

Yes. XML parsing and pretty-printing run locally. SOAP envelopes, configuration dumps, and SAML responses are processed in your browser only.
