Free SVG to data URI converter. Browser-local, no upload. Convert SVG to inline data:image/svg+xml URLs for CSS, img src, and webpack.

Safe SVG
SVG is URL-encoded for data:image/svg+xml. Script tags are blocked.
Developer Quick Tips
- Use the data URI directly in CSS: background-image: url('data:image/svg+xml;utf8,...') for inline graphics without extra files.
- Paste SVG markup or upload a.svg file; the tool URL-encodes it safely and rejects script tags automatically.
- Copy the data URI and paste into img src, CSS mask-image, email templates, or webpack loaders for self-contained graphics.
- For webpack workflows: copy the data URI output and paste into your loader config or CSS-in-JS to inline SVG without separate asset files.
- Press Ctrl or Cmd + Enter to convert after pasting input.
Frequently asked questions
What is a data:image/svg+xml URI?
A data URI is a self-contained URL that embeds SVG markup directly into CSS or HTML without a separate file. The format is data:image/svg+xml;utf8,<encoded-svg>. It's ideal for small icons, spinners, and badges that don't need external assets.
How do I use the data URI in CSS?
Paste the data URI into background-image, mask-image, or border-image properties. Example: background-image: url('data:image/svg+xml;utf8,...'). No extra HTTP request is needed.
Can I use SVG data URIs with webpack?
Yes. Copy the data URI from this tool and paste it into your webpack loader config, CSS-in-JS, or inline style. This avoids the need for separate SVG asset files and reduces HTTP requests in your bundle.
Does SVG to Data URI upload my data?
No. SVG to Data URI on DevToolMate runs locally in your browser. Your input is not uploaded to our servers for processing.
Why are script tags rejected?
Script tags inside SVG are a security risk. The tool blocks them to ensure the data URI is safe to use in CSS, email, and untrusted contexts.
Is SVG to Data URI free?
Yes. SVG to Data URI is free to use with no account required. Processing stays on your device.
