new to XML Parsing

I am trying to parse a xml output from the Download tool. When I use the XML Parse tool it is splitting a total of 259 rows of data to 55 rows to one field1 and remaining field1_OuterXML1. When I parse again only 55 are coming and rest are again left in field1_OuterXML2 and so on. Is it possible to pull all 259 rows at a time?

This will be dependant on the structure of the XML.

 

Are you able to upload an example of what the download tool gets or you workflow?

Hi @AmruthaPydeti

I am not saying that the content of xml is splitting. Please see attached images. 1st image shows that SearchRecordsByReportResult returns 55 records then remaining are returned as SearchRecordsByReportResult_OuterXML. And if I parse the outer XML again I get another 55 records and returns remaining records in SearchRecordsByReportResult_OuterXML2.
