PIPELINE Structured Data Beginner 2 steps

Format raw XML document

XML documents from APIs or databases are often delivered as a single line. This chain normalizes the whitespace (removing empty lines, trimming) then applies proper XML indentation for readability.

What it solves

Pretty-print a minified or unformatted XML document for human review.
