Posted on by 48

First timer using Xpath and unsuccessful so attempting some advice from your guys...

 

  1. Trigger = When a file is created or modified (properties only) = OK
  2. Get File Content  (Added Site Address and File Identifier = Dynamic Identifier OK
  3. I am getting the below XML outputs (the XML was created from an Excel)

I am attempting to parse the needed below (in blue) but been going in circles with Xpath.. I am getting all sorts of errors...

 

Any advice?

 

Thank you
