I- Introduction:

The "MergeXML" connector is used to merge different XML files into one XML file.

I- Treatment Features:

The "MergeXML" connector is found in the conectors panel (On the left sidebar of the scenario page).

• Configuration:

   

To set up the connector, you should click on the blue button above the  connector and fill in the properties displayed :

_{Figure 1: The MERGEXML connector}

  Name : To give a name to the processing step (connector). It is very useful to give meaningful names.

  Nœud XML : Contains the XML node allowing to merge the XML content in the same file.

  Output FileName : define the Name of the output file.

  Condition : This field allows you to add a condition to execute the processing step only if the condition is met.

• Example: MERGEXML using 2 Files IN

   

In this example, we will try to merge 2 files IN into one output file.

• 1-Input files of the MERGEXML connector

You will find below the 2 files example.

• 1-Output file after the MERGEXML connector

By using 2 different configurations (Figure 5 and Figure 7) of the MERGEXML connector, we obtain successively the following result file (Figure 6 and Figure 8):

_{Figure 7: 2^nd MERGEXML connector configuration}

_{Figure 8: Content of the OutputFile of the MERGEXML connector of the 2^nd Configuration}

Remark:

The XML node in the properties of the MERGEXML connector is the one that determines the content of the output File.
