Remove Schema from Xml export via XMLPORT

josalm · 2023-12-11

Hi,

I'm trying to remove the schema part from the xml exported by a xmlport. The objective is to only get the generated xml without the schema part. I'm about to quit this xmlport nonsense and go for a codeunit.
I tried something like this after the export, but it never finds the node i'm after <xs:schema>


TempBlob.CreateOutStream(outstream, TextEncoding::UTF8);

xmlport.Export(Xmlport::"My XmlPort", outstream);
TempBlob.CreateInStream(instream, TextEncoding::UTF8);
XmlDocument.ReadFrom(instream, xmldoc);
xmldoc.SelectSingleNode('xs:schema', node);
node.Remove();

my xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<My_XmlPort>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
  <xs:complexType name="Quadro01" mixed="true">
    <xs:sequence>
      <xs:element minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded" name="Q01C1De" type="xs:string" />
      <xs:element minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded" name="Q01C1A" type="xs:string" />
      <xs:element minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded" name="Q01C2" type="xs:string" />
    </xs:sequence>
  </xs:complexType>
  <xs:complexType name="Quadro02" mixed="true">
    <xs:sequence>

I tried different Xpaths like '/My_XmlPort/xs:schema' or '/My_XmlPort/schema'.

Best regards

Hello @josalm,

I think that a better way is to use SoapUI to create the XML from that output that is in fact a WSDL.

The reason you don't find `<xs:schema>` is that `xs:` is not literally part of the element's name. Instead xs is a shorthand to a namespace defned elsewhere. You need to search for an element named `schema` in the namespace denoted by `xs`.

What are you actually doing, i.e. how do you use the xmlport to generate output?

The schema should not be part of the generated xml document, unless designed like this.

Just realised that I was being dumb and overthinking this. Completely forgot that there's a xmlport property InlineSchema that solves this.

Thanks to you both for your time
