N/xmlparser Module in NetSuite: Parse XML Documents in SuiteScript

The N/xmlparser module provides a simple SAX-style or DOM-based XML parser for SuiteScript, useful for processing XML responses from external APIs or reading EDI/XML files from the File Cabinet.

Parsing XML Content

define(["N/xmlparser", "N/log"], (xmlparser, log) => {
  const xmlString = "<response><status>success</status><orderId>98765</orderId></response>";
  const parser = xmlparser.fromString({ text: xmlString });
  const status = parser.getElementsByTagName({ tagName: "status" })[0].textContent;
  const orderId = parser.getElementsByTagName({ tagName: "orderId" })[0].textContent;
  log.debug("Status", status);
  log.debug("Order ID", orderId);
  return {};
});
