{{SVGRef}}
The **`<polyline>`** [SVG](/en-US/docs/Web/SVG) element is an SVG basic shape that creates straight lines connecting several points. Typically a `polyline` is used to create open shapes as the last point doesn't have to be connected to the first point. For closed shapes see the {{SVGElement("polygon")}} element.
## Example
```css hidden
html,
body,
svg {
height: 100%;
}
```
```html
<svg viewBox="0 0 200 100" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<!-- Example of a polyline with the default fill -->
<polyline points="0,100 50,25 50,75 100,0" />
<!-- Example of the same polyline shape with stroke and no fill -->
<polyline points="100,100 150,25 150,75 200,0" fill="none" stroke="black" />
</svg>
```
