Set Variable [$oxml; Value:MBS( "XML.SubTree"; XML Parser::Input XML; "Body¶GetCategoryProductsResponse" )]
# query number of products
Set Variable [$count; Value:MBS( "XML.NodeCount"; $oxml; "PRODUCT")]
# loop over products
Set Variable [$index; Value:0]
Loop
# get a product
Set Variable [$xml; Value:MBS( "XML.SubTree"; $oxml; "PRODUCT"; $index)]
# get the names of the XML nodes
Set Variable [$names; Value:MBS( "XML.NodeNames"; $xml; 0; 16)]
# loop over the names
Set Variable [$NameCount; Value:ValueCount ( $names )]
Set Variable [$NameIndex; Value:1]
New Record/Request
Loop
# Query a value and put it in a field
Set Variable [$name; Value:GetValue($names; $NameIndex)]
Set Field By Name ["XML Parser::" & $name; GetXMLValue( $xml; $name)]
Set Variable [$NameIndex; Value:$NameIndex + 1]
Exit Loop If [$NameIndex ≥ $NameCount]
End Loop
