Hi
You can use xpath to grab the values you want to use in the velocity
template, and set them as headers.
<setHeader headerName="foo"><xpath>/foo/text()</xpath></setHeader>
Then you can access the ${header.foo} from the velocity template.
Mind that when you use xpath and the XML has namespaces, then the
xpath expression must use those namespaces as well.
It can be a bit tricky to get the xpath expression working.
See examples here:
