We now primarily support the APPSYNC_JS runtime and its documentation. Please consider using the APPSYNC_JS runtime and its guides here.
$util.xml contains helper methods that can make it easier to translate XML
responses to JSON or a Dictionary.
$util.xml utils list
$util.xml.toMap(String) : Map-
Converts an XML string to a Dictionary.
Input: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <posts> <post> <id>1</id> <title>Getting started with GraphQL</title> </post> </posts> Output (JSON representation): { "posts":{ "post":{ "id":1, "title":"Getting started with GraphQL" } } } Input: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <posts> <post> <id>1</id> <title>Getting started with GraphQL</title> </post> <post> <id>2</id> <title>Getting started with AWS AppSync</title> </post> </posts> Output (JSON representation): { "posts":{ "post":[ { "id":1, "title":"Getting started with GraphQL" }, { "id":2, "title":"Getting started with AWS AppSync" } ] } } $util.xml.toJsonString(String) : String-
Converts an XML string to a JSON string. This is similar to toMap, except that the output is a string. This is useful if you want to directly convert and return the XML response from an HTTP object to JSON.
$util.xml.toJsonString(String, Boolean) : String-
Converts an XML string to a JSON string with an optional Boolean parameter to determine if you want to string-encode the JSON.
