Please let me know why the following XML query is not fetching any result.
I am trying to get value EffectiveUserName tag.
DECLARE #MyXML XML
SET #MyXML = '<PropertyList xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<Catalog>name</Catalog>
<Timeout>600</Timeout>
<Format>Native</Format>
<DbpropMsmdFlattened2>false</DbpropMsmdFlattened2>
<Cube>Model</Cube>
<DbpropMsmdOptimizeResponse>1</DbpropMsmdOptimizeResponse>
<DbpropMsmdActivityID>68A6900B-20F8-4A02-AEC3-7C56B2D3C5D5</DbpropMsmdActivityID>
<DbpropMsmdRequestID>A0D1E07F-AE29-4CCA-AEE4-3B79D97CA426</DbpropMsmdRequestID>

<LocaleIdentifier>1033</LocaleIdentifier>
<EffectiveUserName>userid#domainname.com</EffectiveUserName>
<sspropinitappname>PowerBI</sspropinitappname>
</PropertyList>'
select #MyXML.value('(/PropertyList/EffectiveUserName)[1]','varchar(max)')
Your XML has a default namespace that you must respect and include in your query!
<PropertyList xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis"
***********************************************
xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
Use this code to grab the value you're looking for by defining the default XML namespace for your query:
;WITH XMLNAMESPACES(DEFAULT 'urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis')
SELECT
#MyXML.value('(/PropertyList/EffectiveUserName)[1]', 'varchar(50)')
You can ignore the namespace by using *: before the tag names:
select #MyXML.value('(/*:PropertyList/*:EffectiveUserName)[1]','varchar(max)')

When i try to parse XML in T-sql I get error "The name "soap" does not denote a namespace"
This is my XML and query. Answer, please, how can I parse such XML. Thanks.
DECLARE #xml xml
SET #xml =
'<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/>

</ns3:Url>
</GetWebLinkResult>
</GetWebLinkResponse>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>'
SELECT
-- n.value('(./Code/text())[1]','int') as CODE
--,
n.value('ns3:Url','varchar(1000)')as NAME
FROM #xml.nodes('/soap:Envelope/soap:Body/GetWebLinkResponse/GetWebLinkResult') as a(n)
First of all - your XML is invalid - your namespace definitions must be in double quotes:
DECLARE #xml xml
SET #xml =
'<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap:Body>
<GetWebLinkResponse xmlns="http://test.org/" xmlns:ns2="http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/.Configuration" xmlns:ns3="http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/.Configuration.Results" xmlns:ns4="http://schemas.microsoft.com/2003/10/Serialization/">
<GetWebLinkResult>
<ns3:Error>
<ns2:Id>0</ns2:Id>
<ns2:Text>Success.</ns2:Text>
</ns3:Error>
<ns3:Url>
https://example.com&content=true
</ns3:Url>
</GetWebLinkResult>
</GetWebLinkResponse>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>';
Once you've corrected that, you'll need to define all relevant XML namespaces for your T-SQL query. Relevant XML namespaces are all explicitly used namespaces (like soap: and ns3:), as well as default namespaces like the xmlns="http://test.org/" on your <GetWebLinkResponse> node.
When you declare them all - the T-SQL query should work:
WITH XMLNAMESPACES('http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/' AS soap,
'http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/.Configuration.Results' as ns3,
DEFAULT 'http://test.org/')
SELECT
n.value('(ns3:Url)[1]', 'varchar(1000)') AS NAME
FROM
#xml.nodes('/soap:Envelope/soap:Body/GetWebLinkResponse/GetWebLinkResult') as a(n)
I have a SQL Server database table with a column called XML that contains XML data which is structured like this:
<Item xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://test/data">
<Roots>
<Root>
<Name>Field Name</Name>
<Value>Field Value</Value>
</Root>
<Root>
<Name>Field Name</Name>
<Value>Field Value</Value>
</Root>
</Roots>
I want to use T-SQL to get the Value where Name = Total. I have tried the following but it isn't returning any data:
SELECT [XML]
FROM [BusinessAccount]
WHERE [XML].value('(/Root/Name)[13]', 'VARCHAR(MAX)') LIKE '%Total%'
If anyone could tell me where I've gone wrong?
You are missing the required WITH XMLNAMESPACES for your XML and the path is incorrect.
If you want to bring back rows where the 13th element consists of the text Total you can use the below.
WITH XMLNAMESPACES (DEFAULT 'http://test/data')
SELECT [XML]
FROM [BusinessAccount]
WHERE 1 = [XML].exist('(/Item/Roots/Root/Name)[13][text() = "Total"]')
Otherwise you can add the WITH XMLNAMESPACES to your original query and fix the path there too.
You need to specify namespaces. You can then match <Name> and <Value> pairs and extract the contents of <Value> like so:
SELECT NameNode.value('declare namespace x="http://test/data"; (../x:Value)[1]', 'varchar(100)')
FROM [BusinessAccount]
CROSS APPLY [XML].nodes('declare namespace x="http://test/data"; //x:Root/x:Name') AS n(NameNode)
WHERE NameNode.value('.', 'varchar(100)') = 'Total'

I have an XML file in a format similar to:
<XML>
<Field1>100</Field1>
<Field2>200</Field2>
<Field3>300</Field3>
<Test>400</Test>
</XML>
I need to write a query that will get all of the element values that start with Field. So given the XML above the result should be
FieldVal
--------
100
200
300
I've tried the following but it does not work:
Select
xc.value('text()', 'int')
From
#XMLData.nodes('/XML/[starts-with(name(), ''Field'')]') As xt(xc)
NOTE: I am well aware that this task could be easily done if I reformatted my XML but unfortunately I have no control over the format of the XML.
One way is
declare #XMLData xml ='<XML>
<Field1>100</Field1>
<Field2>200</Field2>
<Field3>300</Field3>
<Test>400</Test>
</XML>'
Select
xc.value('.', 'int')
From #XMLData.nodes('/XML/*') As xt(xc)
WHERE xc.value('local-name(.)', 'varchar(50)') LIKE 'Field%'
Prefix name with special character and check contains instead.
declare #x xml ='<XML>
<Field1>100</Field1>
<Field2>200</Field2>
<Field3>300</Field3>
<Test>400</Test>
</XML>';
select t.n.value('.','varchar(100)')
from #x.nodes ('XML/*[contains(concat("$",local-name()),"$Field")]') t(n);
I think it's this what you are looking for:
DECLARE #xml XML=
'<XML>
<Field1>100</Field1>
<Field2>200</Field2>
<Field3>300</Field3>
<Test>400</Test>
</XML>';
SELECT Fld.value('.','int') AS FieldOnly
FROM #xml.nodes('/XML/*[substring(local-name(.),1,5)="Field"]') AS A(Fld)
Just because of the discussion in comments:
DECLARE #fldName VARCHAR(100)='Field';
SELECT Fld.value('.','int') AS FieldOnly
FROM #xml.nodes('/XML/*[substring(local-name(.),1,string-length(sql:variable("#fldName")))=sql:variable("#fldName")]') AS A(Fld)
Change the first line to "Test" (case sensitive!), and you'd get just the one row with 400...
I am trying to parse some XML that has been put into a column. To simplify, I have put the XML directly into a variable and tried to parse it here.
Declare #XMLToParse XML
SELECT #XMLToParse = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<atn:Transaction xmlns:atn="http://www.agcs.com/Transaction/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.agcs.com/Transaction/cosmos.xsd">
<name>AIRW0043</name>
<address>654577</address>
</atn:Transaction>'
;WITH XMLNAMESPACES(DEFAULT 'http://www.agcs.com/Transaction/cosmos.xsd',
'http://www.agcs.com/Transaction/' as atn)
Select #XMLToParse.value('data(/atn:Transaction/name)[1]','VARCHAR(100)') namecode
, #XMLToParse.value('data(/atn:Transaction/address[1]','VARCHAR(100)') addresscode
I am getting null for both values (namecode and addresscode). I should get the name value in namecode and the address value in addresscode.
The actual problem was that you're setting default namespace in WITH XMLNAMESPACES statement. That causes all elements without explicit prefix in your XPath/XQuery (f.e /name and /address) to be considered in the default namespace -while in the actual XML they are in no namespace-.
So in short, simply remove default namespace from your WITH XMLNAMESPACES statement :
Declare #XMLToParse XML
SELECT #XMLToParse = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<atn:Transaction xmlns:atn="http://www.agcs.com/Transaction/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.agcs.com/Transaction/cosmos.xsd">
<name>AIRW0043</name>
<address>654577</address>
</atn:Transaction>'
;WITH XMLNAMESPACES('http://www.agcs.com/Transaction/' as atn)
Select #XMLToParse.value('data(/atn:Transaction/name)[1]','VARCHAR(100)') namecode
, #XMLToParse.value('data(/atn:Transaction/address)[1]','VARCHAR(100)') addresscode
you need to use 'text()' to get the element value
;WITH XMLNAMESPACES('http://www.agcs.com/Transaction/' as atn)
Select #XMLToParse.value('(/atn:Transaction/name/text())[1]','VARCHAR(100)') namecode
, #XMLToParse.value('(/atn:Transaction/address/text())[1]','VARCHAR(100)') addresscode
How can I retrieve the fields within an XML field in MS SQL?
Every query I try does not work as intended whenever I use this XML code:
<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="[URI]" xmlns:xsd="[URI]" xmlns:soap="[URI]">
<soap:Body>
<RunPackage xmlns="[URI]">
<xmlDoc>
<Request>
<SubscriberCode>76547654</SubscriberCode>
<CompanyCode></CompanyCode>
</Request>
</xmlDoc>
</RunPackage>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
I don't know how to reference the first two tags. I've tried
SELECT TransactionID, T2.Loc.query('data(Request/SubscriberCode)') as 'SubscriberCode'
FROM TempWorksRequest
CROSS APPLY RequestXML.nodes('soap:Envelope/soap:Body/RunPackage/xmlDoc') as T2(Loc)
With no luck.
You need to declare the XML namespaces ("soap" in this case, plus another one for the node and anything below) in your XQuery operations:
SELECT
TransactionID,
T2.Loc.query('declare namespace ns="[URI1]";data(ns:Request/ns:SubscriberCode)')
as 'SubscriberCode'
FROM
TempWorksRequest
CROSS APPLY
RequestXML.nodes('declare namespace soap="[URI]";
declare namespace ns="[URI1]";
soap:Envelope/soap:Body/ns:RunPackage/ns:xmlDoc') as T2(Loc)
[URI1] needs to be the URI that's defined on the <RunPackage> tag.
