How to use Remove Quotes from Lines

  1. 1. Paste the quoted lines. Paste a multi-line list where each line is wrapped in quotes into the input pane, such as a quoted config list or code array entries.
  2. 2. Read how each line is unwrapped. The tool has no settings; it detects the quote marks enclosing each line and strips just that pair, leaving the rest of the line's content untouched.
  3. 3. Copy the plain lines. Copy the output, now a plain list with no quote marks, and paste it into a spreadsheet, plain text file or anywhere unquoted lines are needed.

When to use Remove Quotes from Lines

Remove Quotes from Lines deletes the quotes that enclose each line of a multi-line list. Use Remove Quotes from Lines when a quoted config list or code array needs to become a plain, line-by-line list again.

  • Converting a YAML list to plain text. A configuration file lists quoted string entries one per line, and stripping the quotes gives you a plain list to paste into a spreadsheet or another format.
  • Cleaning up copied code array entries. You copied a multi-line array of quoted strings from source code and want the bare values, one per line, without the surrounding quote marks and commas.
  • Simplifying a quoted export for review. An exported list has every entry quoted for formatting reasons, and removing the quotes makes it easier for a non-technical reviewer to read through the values.

Examples

Unquote each line

Input

"apple"
"banana"

Output

apple
banana

About the Remove Quotes from Lines tool

Does Remove Quotes from Lines cost anything?

Yes, it is completely free. All 2,658 tools on EditSafely work without an account, a subscription or usage limits.

Is it safe to paste sensitive or confidential data?

How much text can I process at once?

There is no fixed limit. Because the work happens on your own device rather than on a shared server, the practical ceiling is your machine's memory, which comfortably handles inputs far larger than typical online tools allow.
