How to use XML Formatter
- Paste the XML markup you want to format.
- Run the formatter and review the indented output.
- Confirm every non-self-closing tag has a matching closing tag if indentation looks off.
- Copy or download the formatted XML.
Practical example
Make a compact XML sample easier to read during debugging.
Check your result before using it
Check namespace declarations, attributes and text content after formatting. Whitespace can be significant in mixed-content XML, so readable indentation is not proof that a receiving application will interpret the result identically. Validate against the required schema separately when one exists. Preserve a copy of the source and test a representative document in the target system before replacing a production configuration or data export.
When to use XML Formatter
- Expand a compact XML API response for inspection
- Make an XML configuration file easier to review before editing
- Clean up XML pasted from a log file
Important limitations
- This lightweight formatter does not validate against a schema or repair malformed XML.
- Mixed text content, CDATA and unusual namespace constructs may need a dedicated XML editor.
Troubleshooting XML Formatter
Indentation becomes incorrect
