XPath Node Selection
There are various ways to specify the XPath for an XML
node in an API request. The simplest is to use the location path
of the resource. For example, to select all users within your management
configuration, use the following path:
/config/mgt-config/users
The above path specifies the following XML node that includes
all users:
<users> <entry name="admin"> <permissions> <role-based> <superuser>yes</superuser> </role-based> </permissions> </entry> <entry name="guest"> <permissions> <role-based> <custom> <profile>NewUser</profile> </custom> </role-based> </permissions> </entry> </users>
Another method for selecting the XPath for an XML node is to
select the specific node, such as the
superuser
or NewUser
node
within the node shown above. Use XPath syntax similar to the following
to drill-down and select a specific node:XML Node | XPath Syntax |
