What is XML Stringify Online?

XML Stringify Online escapes XML markup so it can be pasted safely into code as a string. This is useful when embedding XML requests in tests, saving SOAP envelopes inside JSON fixtures, generating examples for SDKs, or moving XML through systems that expect a quoted string value.

How to Use XML Stringify Online

1

Paste XML into the input panel.

2

Choose double quoted, single quoted, or template literal output.

3

Keep validation enabled if the XML should be well formed.

4

Enable compacting if you want a shorter one-line source before escaping.

5

Copy or download the string literal.

Common Use Cases

  • Embedding XML fixtures in JavaScript tests.
  • Putting SOAP request XML inside JSON payload examples.
  • Escaping XML for config files or seeded test data.
  • Creating compact XML string literals for demos.

Example Input and Output

A simple XML node becomes a JSON-safe string literal.

XML input
<status ok="true">Ready</status>
String output
"<status ok=\"true\">Ready</status>"

Tip

Use double quoted output when the escaped XML needs to be valid JSON. Use template literals when preserving readable multi-line XML inside JavaScript.
