<!-- invalid XML --> in Swagger UI Example Value

[Andrew Campbell]

I'm getting <!-- invalid XML --> in my Example Values in Swagger UI.

For example

<?xml version="1.0"?> <Comments> <comment> <!-- invalid XML --> </comment> </Comments>

The model looks like this

Comments {

comment (Array[Comment], optional)

}
Comment {

id (string,null): 

http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#string

}

I have attached a sample Swagger file that displays the problem.

I just can't see what is causing this problem. Can anyone help me?

The problem is the spec is just invalid. The Comments model just doesn’t follow the supported spec.

Thanks. I've used http://bigstickcarpet.com/swagger-parser/www/index.html to find the validation issues with my spec, and I have altered it so it is now valid, at least according to that validator.

I'm still getting the same problem, and I could really use some help in getting this fixed.

Updated spec is attached.

So I don’t really know what you’re trying to describe but if you change the Comment definition to just

"Comment": {

      "type": "object",

      "title": "Comment",

      "required": [

        "id"

      ],

      "properties": {

        "id": {

          "title": "id",

          "type": "string"

        }

      }

    }

it will render as expected.

Keep in mind, ‘null’ is not a valid type, nor is an array of types.

Thank you!

The problem was the missing "type": "string". This was further obfuscated by a typo in the full 13k line spec; I wouldn't have found either of those problems without your help.

Glad to hear you got it sorted out. Swagger on!
