Load XML File From Repository

[Former Community Member]

Assume you declare a process variable of type XML. Is it possible using the Set Value service to fill this variable with an XML file that is in the repository?



I was thinking something like this might work, but it doesn't seem to



Location Expression

/process_data/xml_data /Stuff/data/data.xml

Oh, and I know I can read an external XML file using File Utilities, but wanted to know if where was a better/different way.

You would have to use a Read Content from Repository service to get it out then you can use the SetValue to manipulate as you see fit. The XPath expression cannot access the repository directly.
