Start session action in XML

The Start session action in the XML package enables you to create a new XML session based on an XML file or specified text.

Settings

  • Start the XML session.
  • Enter the session name or select an existing variable used in the Start XML session action. Use this session name for all corresponding actions.
  • In the Data Source field, select either File or Text:
    • File: Select from the Control Room file, Desktop file, or an existing Variable of File type.
    • Text: Specify the text name or select an existing variable.
  • Select the Remove text nodes that contain only white space check box to remove the blank text nodes when you parse the XML document.
    Note: When you migrate bots from Enterprise 11 to Automation 360 that are using the Start session action, the Remove text nodes that contain only white space check box is selected by default.
  • Save the XML session.
