XML support#

When sending a request containing a valid XML body and an application/xml or text/xml Content-Type, Mockoon will parse the XML and allow you to create body response rules or use the body and bodyRaw templating helpers. Mockoon uses the xml-js NPM package to convert the entering XML. Please note that the xml-js package converts XML into JSON in a particular way, as shown below:

Entering XML body:

Copy
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<user userID="123">
<firstname>John</firstname>
<lastname>Doe</lastname>
</user>

JSON equivalent (compacted):

Copy
{
  "_declaration": {
    "_attributes": {
      "version": "1.0",
      "encoding": "utf-8"
    }
  },
  "user": {
    "_attributes": {
      "userID": "123"
    },
    "firstname": {
      "_text": "John"
    },
    "lastname": {
      "_text": "Doe"
    }
  }
}
