I have below XML data. I want to extract values of 'wd:Document_ID' from below XML

I am using below Extract Variable Policy
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<ExtractVariables continueOnError="false" enabled="true" name="EV-DocumentID">
<DisplayName>EV-DocumentID</DisplayName>
<Properties/>
<IgnoreUnresolvedVariables>true</IgnoreUnresolvedVariables>
<Source clearPayload="false">request</Source>
<VariablePrefix>wd:Report_Data</VariablePrefix>
<XMLPayload stopPayloadProcessing="false">
<Namespaces/>
<Variable name="docid" type="string">
<XPath>//wd:Report_Data/wd:Report_Entry[1]/wd:Output_Documents_group/wd:Document_ID/text()</XPath>
</Variable>
</XMLPayload>
</ExtractVariables>
I am getting below error
instance "int-non-prod-1" reported error steps.extractvariables.XPathCompilationFailed: "ExtractVariables //wd:Report_Data/wd:Report_Entry[1]/wd:Output_Documents_group/wd:Document_ID/text(): Failed to compile xpath {1}. Context {2}"
Solved! Go to Solution.
hey @praviningawale
so in order to solve your problem, you should have read about more on extract_variable_policy you are using variable prefix and there is no sense in using this if you have namespaces in your XML payload then you must use namespaces_prefix
and there you go.
and removing wd from XML payload is good but if you have a huge payload then it is a tricky task
let me know if you are still not able to do so
