How to parse xml data from clob in oracle

Question

The xml is:

The Sql:

select atts.att1,atts.att2,my_table.PL_IN
    from my_table
         , xmltable(
                xmlnamespaces(
                    'http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/' as "soapenv"
                       , 'http://www.avea.com.tr/om/ABCS_BSCS_ASSET_OPERATIONS' as "abcs"
                      , 'http://www.avea.com.tr/AveaFrameWork' as "ave"
                      ,'http://www.avea.com.tr/om/EBS_COMMITMENT_ASSET_OPERATIONS' as "ebs")
                ,'/soapenv:Envelope/soapenv:Header/soapenv:Body/abcs:ResponseBody/abcs:listOfCommitmentPenalty/abcs:commitmentPenalty'
                passing xmltype(my_table.PL_IN)
                columns
                    att1 varchar2 (20) path 'abcs:commitmentName',
                    att2 number path 'abcs:totalPeriod') atts

I am trying to parse clob xml data in oracle no rows return. In the sql I define namespaces and parse xml, but it does not work. I've tried almost all the solutions I've done in Google, but it did not. Is there anyone that can help me or Anyone suggest for this question. Thanks.

Answer 1

Your XPath is incorrect. soapenv:Body is at the same level as soapenv:Header , which is an empty tag. You've also missed out the ebs:EbsRetrieveProbableCommitmentPenaltiesResponse node at the top of the body.

So the XPath should start:

'/soapenv:Envelope/soapenv:Body/ebs:EbsRetrieveProbableCommitmentPenaltiesResponse/abcs:ResponseBody/...

With just that change your query gets:

ATT1                       ATT2 PL_IN
