Howto use Converting File Content in Rec. Adapt. to suppress a xml-element

Question

Hi,
we use PI/700, SP6.
I have following structure (example):
<MsgOut>
  <Sender>Partner1</Sender>
  <Receiver>Partner2</Receiver>
  <FlatPayload>
     blabla blabla
  </FlatPayload>
</Msgout>
Now I wanna use a XI-File-Adapter to write just a Flat-File with the content (of the element <FlatPayload>):
    blabla blabla
(in other words: I wanna suppress all other xml-elements beside of FlatPayload)
But I'm not able to configurate this with the function "Converting File Content"
I tried different possiblities:
e.g.
setting yyy.fieldFixedLengths = 0 and yyy.fixedLengthTooShortHandling = Cut
(yyy = Sender and Receiver)
or
just defining "MsgOut,FlatPayload" as RecordSet Structure (without Sender and Receiver)
Result: no success.
Now my question: is it possible to suppress some xml-elements?
Thanks for your help!
bye
Wolfgang

Answer 1

HI,
You can suppress the XML Nodes/Elements over here. Not Fields ..
For e.g if your outout xml is like this
<MsgOut>
    <Sender>Partner1</Sender>
    <Receiver>Partner2</Receiver>
<FlatPayload>
   <flatdata> blabla blabla</flatdatat>
</FlatPayload>
</Msgout>
In this case you can suppress the <FlatPayload> node/element here.. Using Cut Parameter in the Receiver File Content COnversion.

So in your case, you can restructure your data type as you required.. I have mentioned in vice-versa here
Hope this helps,
