Hi David, This is not possible without adding a processor behaving like a payload transformer/replacer. The way to do this is
<camelContext id="camel" xmlns="http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring";> <route> <from uri="timer://myTimer?fixedRate=true&period=2000"/> <process ref="MyBodyReplacementProcessor"/> <to uri="..."/> </route> </camelContext> In myBodyReplacementProcessor public class MyBodyReplacementProcessor implements Processor { public void process(Exchange exchange) throws Exception { String payload = exchange.getIn().getBody(String.class); // do something with the payload and/or exchange here exchange.getIn().setBody("Changed body (XML Message)"); } } This should allow the body to be replaced by your XML messahe and sent to the final URI. Hope this helps. Cheers, Ashwin... david_geary wrote: > > I want to use a timer to call a web service so i need to set the xml body > of the message.
