Procedure.XML Modifier - Child Modifier Elements

Procedure.XML Modifier uses a number of child elements:

All of the elements are shown above and they're described in the following table:

ElementDescription

Procedure.XML Modifier

(Required) The parent element for all other related elements. Specifies the fully-qualified path and file name, with extension, of the XML file to be modified. The application must have Full Control or equivalent file access permissions to file. The @Function.AppPhysicalPath~ token can be used here.

Append Child Element

Specifies a target XML element by ID or XPath. Appends a new child XML element as the last child of the target element.

  • Cut Element

Specifies a target XML element by ID or XPath. Used with any Logi element that appends or inserts a new child XML element, this element deletes the target element first, before the append or insert, then makes it available for insertion. This is used primarily to "move" an XML element from one place to another in the file, an operation similar to "Cut and Paste"in a file system. For more information, see this usage example.

  • New Element

Used with any Logi element that appends or inserts a new child XML element, this is the "container" for the XML source code that you want to insert. Use Logi Studio's Source tab to directly edit this element, adding the source code for the XML element(s) to be inserted. Not needed when Cut Element is used. For more information, see this usage example.

Insert After Element

Specifies a target XML element by ID or XPath and inserts a new XML element after the target element.

Insert Before Element Specifies a target XML element by ID or XPath and inserts a new XML element before the target element.

Prepend Child Element

Specifies a target XML element by ID or XPath and adds new child XML element as the first element beneath the target element.

Remove Attribute

Specifies a target XML element by ID or XPath and removes the XML attribute specified by name (required) in the target element.
Remove Element Specifies a target XML element by ID or XPath and removes it.

Rename Attribute

Specifies a target XML element by ID or XPath and renames its specified XML attribute with the specified new name.

Set Attribute

Specifies a target XML element by ID or XPath and replaces its specified XML attribute with the specified value. If the attribute doesn't exist, it's created and set to the value.

Set Element Text

Specifies a target XML element by ID or XPath and specifies its Inner Text value.

Update or Append Child Element

Specifies a target XML element by ID or XPath. If the specified child XML element doesn't exist, it's appended as the last element beneath the target element. If the child element does exist, the specified attribute values replace the existing values.
