xml data resource configuration

When you have selected the data resource to be configured you can adjust the parsing of an XML data resource by choosing the option “as XML” from the “Configure ...” pop-up menu. The schema will be automatically derived from the structure of the XML data resource contained in the file. In order to make adjustments easy, a preview of the first few rows of the XML file is generated dynamically (1).

Note: XSD schema parsing is not provided at this stage

Configuration Workflow

  • In the field “XML Record Tag” (2), state the XML element name that encloses each individual record set.
  • Save the configuration by clicking on “Save”.
  • You can discard any changes and go back to the “Data” tab by clicking on “Cancel”.

Notes:

  • If you enter an XML record tag that does not exist in the data resource or does not denote records, the resource will be imported improperly. Currently, you won't receive a notification about any errors but you can check the result by means of graph exploration.
  • At the moment, all XML files are interpreted as UTF-8. In case you have a file with different encoding you need to convert it to UTF-8 before importing it to d:swarm.
