Hello Experts,

I trying to access some field value in XML message through ESQL code(using XMLNSC parser), but not able to access the value:

below is my Sample XML:

Code:
<ZXML xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.abc.com/zxml trans.xsd" xmlns="http://www.abc.com/zxml" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
   <Header>
      <Data>
         <Key>
            <ID>12345</ID>
         </Key>       
      </Data>
   </Header>
</ZXML>


below is my ESQL code, in none of the way was I able to fetch the data:

Code:
SET val1 = InputRoot.XMLNSC.ZXML.Header.Data.Key.ID;
   SET val2 = InputRoot.XMLNSC.*.Header.Data.Key.ID;
   
   SET val3 = InputRoot.XMLNSC.(XMLNSC.Element)Header.Data.Key.ID;
   SET val4 = InputRoot.XMLNSC.*.*.*.*.Header.Data.Key.ID;


Also tried removing the namespace, as given here:

https://developer.ibm.com/answers/questions/210953/how-to-remove-or-delete-namespaces-from-xmlnsc-dom/

Code:
SET OutputRoot.XMLNSC.*:ZXML.(XMLNSC.NamespaceDecl)* = NULL;
      SET OutputRoot.XMLNSC.*:ZXML NAMESPACE = '';
         
      SET OutputRoot.XMLNSC.*:ZXML.(XMLNSC.Attribute)xsi = NULL;
      SET OutputRoot.XMLNSC.*:ZXML.(XMLNSC.Attribute)schemaLocation = NULL;


I was able to remove the namespace: xmlns="http://www.abc.com/zxml", whereas other namespaces remained as it is.

Tried to fetch fieldvalue of the first element, got null;

Code:
SET fv =  FIELDNAME(InputRoot.XMLNSC.ZXML); --gives null



Is there any thing wrong with namespace?

Any help in this regard would be great.

Please add a Trace node in your message flow. Put it immediately after the input node, and set the Pattern to ${Root}. Post the output in this thread, and I can then explain what is happening.

Solved!
Was able to fetch value with below code:

Quote:
SET val1 = InputRoot.XMLNSC.*:ZXML.*:Header.*:Data.*:Key.*:ID;


XML elements inherit the parent element namespaces by default unless it is specified explicitly.

Thank you!

Glad you got it working, but this statement is not accurate:
Quote:

If you believe that, you will end up very confused next time you deal with an XML message. I suggest that you check out an XML tutorial - the rules are not difficult to understand.
