XML mismatched tag fix for SOAP and XML APIs

Well-formed XML requires every element closed in order. SOAP responses and legacy APIs fail fast on a single mismatch. Line/column errors point to the first inconsistency.

Common causes

  • Unclosed element after copy-paste.
  • Namespace prefix wrong on closing tag.
  • Entity encoding in attribute values.

How to fix

  • Inspect raw body in Webhook Payload Viewer for structure.
  • Use API Response Analyzer to fetch and review status.
  • Validate against XSD when available.
