Hi Guys, I have the following response but am having difficulty retrieving the data I need to.

Here is the response:

                                    <c:ParameterDefinitionsId>*1*</c:ParameterDefinitionsId>

This Response is resulting in just Two Nodes - the first one is the Header one, then the larger second one is Body (Goes on for much longer)

I am unable to get the element for Example in the last line, the “1” value.

Could someone advise on how to get the value for c:ParameterDefinitionsId in the last line for example?

Much appreciated!

@Kyleb91
as your XML is dealing with naespace @Yoichi has provided the demo handling this.

Find an approach on how to handle with config / mapping tables and doing the retrieval with the help of XPath:

Thank you so much @Yoichi brilliant stuff. A bit for me to digest.

Could I ask a favour of how you would similarly use this string to find a value, where there are multiple instances of the original "xmlns:c and subsequent ParameterValuesId values…

sample.txt (11.7 KB)

I am trying to retrieve the specific value “100810866”. Not sure how I should be accessing the Key “<b:Key>node.failedLogins.number</b:Key>”

Much Appreciated!

Hi,

The above your sample is not valid as xml. (eg. lack definition of b)
Can you share original xml as a file?

sample.xml (21.5 KB)

Apologies, see attached. I need to get the value “100810866”, and I can get it with your solution but also all of the other values with the same Namespace and Descendants…

Thanks in advance!
