[ahmedsolmn (Ahmed Soliman)]

Hi @ahmedsolmn,

We have activities available in UiPath to serialize deserialize and extract the data same we do in any coding language or from a JSON object.

All you need to do is import UiPath.web.activities from the Manage Packages available in the panel.

Yea I had followed that before but it didn’t work, but I found the issue was with the namespace. When i remove it from the XML everything works.

Is there a way to remove the namespace from the Xdocument.
