I am using applinx 1015 and able to create 1 path procedure in 1 procedure group.
And using screens I am assigning field mapping, for input and output.
after assigning all required outputs I am receiving like this

<tns:test_1_Response xmlns:tns=“http:”>
<first_name></first_name>
<last_name></lastt_name>
<middle_name></middle_name>
<email_id></email_id>
<phone_num></phone_num>
<message_out>updated</message_out>
<first_name></first_name>
<last_name></last_name>
<middle_name></middle_name>
<email_id></email_id>
<phone_num></phone_num>
</tns:test_1Response>

But this is what i require

<tns:test_1_Response xmlns:tns=“http:”>
<person_1>
<first_name></first_name>
<last_name></last_name>
<middle_name></middle_name>
<email_id></email_id>
<phone_num></phone_num>
</person_1>
<message_out>updated</messsage_out>
<person_2>
<first_name></first_name>
<last_name></lastt_name>
<middle_name></middle_name>
<email_id></email_id>
<phone_num></phone_num>
</person_2>
</tns:test_1Response>

How can i group the output for easy human reading (can i use ‘add structure’ or ‘new data structure’ for it) ?
How can i change the XML to JSON (I am able to do it with a python/c# code, but would like to do it in applinx)? tried rest-API-config to modify, but couldn’t understand what is need to change to convert XML to JSON
and what is tns ?

Hi,

You can create a path procedure with a data structure (“Person”) as the output, then map values into the data structure and expose the procedure as REST API that would return the output as a JSON file, without the need to convert from XML to JSON.

Hello Gadi,
Thanks for the reply.

I am able to solve one issue, I am now getting response the way I want, able to group output using data structure.

But I am unable to find the option where the REST API response is JSON, I have created a new Path Procedure and procedure group and copy REST URL to clipboard and check to see output in XML only.
I kind of did the same steps again but could not see a difference that gets response in JSON.

Please note that I am using Microsoft Edge to check the REST API output

Can you please point me to the place where I can see the option, that makes difference in REST API response from XML to JSON.

How to expose procedure as REST API that can return the output as JSON ?

I am able to expose procedure as rest API that can return the output as XML.
