How do you unquote a string?
An unquote string tool removes one layer of surrounding quotes and unescapes what is inside. Snabbit strips matching single, double or backtick quotes, then turns escapes like \n, \t and \uXXXX back into real characters. Text that is not quoted is returned unchanged. It runs privately in your browser, so the string you clean is never uploaded.
How to use the Unquote String
- 1 Paste a string that is wrapped in quotes.
- 2 The unquoted, unescaped text appears instantly.
- 3 Single, double and backtick quotes are all recognised.
- 4 Copy the clean string.
What you can use it for
- Pulling a value out of a quoted CSV cell.
- Cleaning a copied code string back to plain text.
- Removing the quotes a tool added around output.
- Unescaping a single quoted field.
Frequently asked questions
Which quote characters are removed?
Matching pairs of double quotes, single quotes or backticks are removed. The first and last character must be the same quote for it to be stripped.
What happens to escape sequences inside?
Common backslash escapes — \n, \t, \r, \", \' and \uXXXX — are turned back into the characters they represent.
What if my text has no quotes?
It is returned unchanged. The tool only acts when the string is genuinely wrapped in a matching pair of quotes.
