Namespace Issue in Gel Parse

[Shanti Swaroop kala]

Hi All,

I am facing a strange issue while building an XML using xpath.

I am trying to create a task using xpath, i mean initially having a project xml and then inserting the task inside the Project xml using xml.

while doing this i am seeing namespace in the NikuDataBus  Root Tag and also for Task Root Tag for Example as below:

This is my Project XML

<gel:parse var="prjxml">  <NikuDataBus xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"  xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../xsd/nikuxog_project.xsd"> 
<Header action="write" externalSource="NIKU" objectType="project" version="15.8.1"/> 
<Projects> 
<Project name="${PROJECT_NAME}" projectID="${PROJECT_CODE}"> 
</Project> 
</Projects> 
</NikuDataBus> 
</gel:parse>


My Task Tag:

<gel:parse var="TaskInst">
<Tasks>
</Tasks>
</gel:parse>

Updating the Task Tag

<gel:parse var="TaskXog">
<Task finish="${v_TaskEndDATE}" name="${TaskName}" start="${v_TaskStartDATE}" taskID="${taskiD}"></Task> </gel:parse>

<gel:set value="${TaskXog}" select="$TaskInst/Tasks" insert='true'/>

My End Result is looking like this


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<NikuDataBus xmlns:ns1="http://soap.rpc.Rally.atlassian.com"
xmlns:ns2="http://beans.soap.rpc.Rally.atlassian.com"
xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:xog="http://www.niku.com/xog"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../xsd/nikuxog_project.xsd">
<Header action="write" externalSource="NIKU" objectType="project" version="15.8.1"/>
<Projects> <Project name="testq" projectID="430987">
<Tasks xmlns:ns1="http://soap.rpc.Rally.atlassian.com" xmlns:ns2="http://beans.soap.rpc.Rally.atlassian.com" xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:xog="http://www.niku.com/xog"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">


Task finish="2020-09-01T05:59:59" name="TaskTest" start="2020-08-01T06:00:00" taskID="0984526"/>
</Tasks>
</Project>
</Projects>
</NikuDataBus>

I am not sure why the parse is duplicating the namespace when preparing the xml. any pointers would be much appreciated.

Thanks
