Data formats

Four boxes, all built on the same model: a parse or stringify operation, a value input, a result output.

JSON

Inputs	value
Outputs	result
Configuration	op: parse or stringify; indent (0 = compact, 10 at most)

XML

Inputs	value
Outputs	result
Configuration	op, indent (10 at most)

Attributes are exposed under the @_ prefix in the object produced: <client id="42"/> yields { client: { '@_id': '42' } }.

That is what you need in order to work with a SOAP response as something other than plain text.

YAML

Inputs	value
Outputs	result
Configuration	op, indent (1 to 10, default 2)

CSV

Inputs	value, delimiter (string)
Outputs	result
Configuration	op, delimiter (default ,), header (default true)

With header enabled, parse produces a list of objects named after the first row. Combined with Read file and ForEach, that is the data-driven test pattern:
