I want to remove the backslashes from the soap service response. Is there any way to remove the single backslashes?

string; 

<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap=\"http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/\" xmlns:xsi=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\" xmlns:xsd=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema\">

    I don't think those slashes are really there. R just escapes quotes with slashes when printing strings in the console. Try `cat()`ing the value to see what's really there. It's easier to help you if you include a simple [reproducible example](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5963269/how-to-make-a-great-r-reproducible-example) with sample input and desired output that can be used to test and verify possible solutions. – MrFlick Feb 20 '19 at 18:37

  • Thank you I think the string completely wrong – Daniel Feb 20 '19 at 20:57
