HI Shalini
Thats good to hear. Btw, I could use the XML response that you
have sent along with the xpath, IT worked fine as well.

Hi Sankar ,
I created the xpath again by copying it from the response and it seems to work .
I will run the complete automation suite, to ensure it is working as before.
Thank You for the support.

That was a sample names I created , since I cant send the original names in the xpath in public forum.
I have the correct spellings in the original script in the Xpath Query in the DevTest scripts.
In that case, is there anything I am missing on it. When the format of the response got changed(capital letters in the response now), the scripts started to fail .

HI Shalini
There is only a minor issue here.
1. The Sample Response does not have a matching XML tag for "GetDetails4.3".
It's misspelled as "GetDetailse4.3"
Once that is corrected, I dont see any problem. PLease try and let me know
how it goes.

Subject: Invalid XPath: Prefix must resolve to a namespace: soapenv
Sample Request :
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:rel="https://test.com/release4_0">
<soapenv:Header/>
<soapenv:Body>
<rel:GetDetails4.3>
<rel:shipment-id>SHIP12345</rel:shipment-id>
</rel:GetDetails4.3>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
Sample Response:
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<SOAP-ENV:Header/>
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<GetDetails4.3 xmlns="http://test.com/release4_0">
<shipment>
<status>
<delivered>
<delivery-time>2024-09-02T14:26:56.954Z</delivery-time>
</delivered>
</status>
</shipment>
</GetDetailse4.3>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
I want to get the value of delivery-time from this response. The Xpath query which I used in CA Devtest is as below,
/SOAP-ENV:Envelope/SOAP-ENV:Body/:GetDetails4.3/:shipment/:status/:delivered/:delivery-time/text()
But I am getting the below error,
Invalid XPath: Prefix must resolve to a namespace: soapenv
Failed to execute the XPath queryorg.apache.xpath.domapi.XPathStylesheetDOM3Exception: Prefix must resolve to a namespace: soapenv`
Earlier the response used to be like the one below ,
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soapenv:Header/>
<soapenv:Body>
<GetDetails4.3 xmlns="http://test.com/release4_0">
<shipment>
<status>
<delivered>
<delivery-time>2024-09-02T14:26:56.954Z</delivery-time>
</delivered>
</status>
</shipment>
</GetDetailse4.3>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
The Xpath query , I used to give then, was as below and I was getting the correct response.
/soapenv:Envelope/soapenv:Body/:GetDetails4.3/:shipment/:status/:delivered/:delivery-time/text().
Now after the change in the response format, I am not able to read the value from the SOAP response using the Xpath Query.
Could someone assist with a resolution for the same.
