How to use XML?

[RytisT]

Hi. I have a generated XML from external source that I want to use in Switch.

My XML looks something like this: https://prnt.sc/uanb2z - I tried to keep it the way switch generates it.

Yet when I try to use any of the data in this XML, I can't see it anywhere in switch. I suppose I need to do something with XML file before I can use it's data? Can someone put me on the right path here?

Thanks!

Do you have the Metadata module? You need it to read the XML data to use it in Switch as variables for the job.

Yeah, I do.

If I inject a PDF with same name, so there's PDF+Metadata in it (from same xml file)
then Switch reads the metadata, but if there's only the XML file, with no injection, it won't.

Switch can not read the XML file as it is and use its content. You first have to inject the Metadata as a Dataset to the job.

If you only have a XML-file coming in you have to change the property in the XML Pickup tool to Pickup Mode = Metadata is asset. Then the XML in the XML file becomes a dataset associated with that job.
