Re: XML Questions

Hello David,

Both of your questions are pretty broad and without more details I can't give 
specific answers but I'll try my best.

1) Are you asking to essentially transfer attributes from one flowfile to 
another? If that's the case, that's not currently supported.

2) Depending on the specifics of what you need, the MergeContent processor[1] 
may work.

If this doesn't help just let me know!

Hi

I have two questions which I think may require bespoke processors.

1)  I have extracted a set of  values from xml tags and made them into flowfile 
attributes, how a can I add these flowfile attributes to one or more flowfiles?

2)  I have multiple xml files which I need to merge into one xml file, can I do 
this with the current processor set?

Thanks
Dave

Thanks for the reply, that is pretty much what I thought about the flowfile 
attributes. Ill have to have a think about that one to see if I can work 
out a way around it.
With the merging, we will get multiple xml files which will be related by an 
attribute, I want to combine  them into one xml file which I can validate 
before sending it on.
I will have a look at the merge content to combine the xml files into one 
flowfile and then use an xslt transformer to get rid of unwanted bits and put 
the whole lot into a xml format that I can validate.
