About this tool

What XML Beautifier does

The XML Beautifier at CodeBeautify converts raw or messy XML code into a well-formatted, readable structure. Users paste their unformatted Extensible Markup Language data into the input field, and the tool automatically adds proper indentation, line breaks, and spacing. The output preserves all original data while making the hierarchical relationships between tags visually clear, which is useful for debugging, inspection, or documentation. Beyond basic formatting, the tool includes options to validate the XML, convert it to JSON or CSV, minify it, and view a tree structure of the elements.
