XML Formatter & Beautifier

What is XML Formatter?

The XML Formatter is a free online tool that beautifies, minifies, and validates XML code instantly in your browser. XML (eXtensible Markup Language) is widely used for configuration files, SOAP API responses, RSS feeds, SVG graphics, and data exchange between enterprise systems. Raw or minified XML is nearly impossible to read and debug without proper indentation. This tool automatically adds correct indentation and line breaks to make nested elements and attributes easy to understand at a glance. It also validates your XML syntax and reports errors with precise locations so you can fix them quickly. Whether you are debugging a SOAP response, reviewing a configuration file, or formatting an SVG, this tool handles it instantly with no installation or sign-up required.
