XML format Issue with Webservice

[Former Member]

Hi,

Currently when I generate the XML payload in XI, it is generating as below one. But the 3rd party webservice is expecting everything in on elong big string. How can I do this in XI to convert my XML data after mapping to one long string before calling the webservice.

If I do as per this blog, then it is adding "- <![CDATA[ " tag in the XML file and the 3rd party webserivce don't want that.

Thanks
