Can XMLPort works for dynamic XML response ?

bilalrai

Hi guys,
I am stuck in a problem. I am getting XML response from a webservice in NAV. I have created XMLPort for importing data from XML response to NAV table. It works fine when the response has all the tags that are defined in the structure of XMLPort but when anyone of the tag is missed in response it throws an error. Is there a way that when a tag is missed in XML response NAV just skip it and import data from other tags?

Setting the MinOccurs property to Zero should do the trick.

Thanks @vaprog but I have already tried that option in properties.

Load it into XDocument and go through it manually.

In this case you need to update NAV to a newer version or build; or follow @Juhl's advice.

This is the only legit trick. Set this property to all the nodes.
