Burp XML Parser Functionality in Extender API

Bort_Millipede | Last updated: Nov 30, 2019 03:12AM UTC

Hi, I posted another question in the Customer Portal (found here: https://support.portswigger.net/customer/portal/questions/17672747-xml-tab-reparse-programmatically ) regarding the XML "Reparse" functionality available in Burp. I was told that this functionality uses a proprietary XML parser developed solely for Burp. I am making this request to see if certain functionality from the proprietary XML parser could be added to the IExtensionHelpers class in the Burp Extender API. At the very least, I was hoping that a "beautifyXML()" method could be added to the class, which would programmatically provide the functionality of the XML "Reparse" button available in Burp. Please let me know if this can be done. Thanks,

Hi Bort, Thanks for your feedback. I have raised this as a feature request on our development backlog. I have associated this thread to that request so we will post an update if it gets implemented in a future release.
