Merge more than one xml and output csv in Biztalk


I have two xmls which needs to be merged into a csv.

first xml contains data like:

<id>1111</id>
<FirstXmlColumn1>1First</FirstXmlColumn1>
<FirstXmlColumn2>1second</FirstXmlColumn2>
<FirstXmlColumn3>1Third</FirstXmlColumn3>

Second xml contains data like:

<id>2222</id>
<SecondXmlColumn1>2First</SecondXmlColumn1>
<SecondXmlColumn2>2second</SecondXmlColumn2>
<SecondXmlColumn3>2Third</SecondXmlColumn3>

Expected CSV(+header) with data :

id1, id2, FirstXmlColumn1,SecondXmlColumn1, FirstXmlColumn2, SecondXmlColumn2, FirstXmlColumn3, SecondXmlColumn3

111,    ,  1first        ,                 ,  1second       ,                ,    1third       ,   

   , 222,                ,   2first        ,                ,  2second       ,                 ,    2third

I am not able to merge the data of two schemas into flat file schema. I tried using map with two schemas as input but not able to get correct result. I want the data of second schema in next record. The csv contains header of both xmls. Used flat file to get output of csv. All those are working good.


Solution

  • Using this flat file schema:

    And this map:

    flat file map

    Produced your desired output. The key is really just a looping functoid with two inputs. I also had to make the minOccurs=0 on the child nodes - but I also could have just set their value to empty. (I set the header values using the node properties on the map to produce the desired header values).
