read xml file from given tag

Question

How can I read xml from a given tag "Nature" in my case. My code below read the entire xml file.

import boto3
Read the xml file from bucket data1 of s3 
s3 = boto3.resource('s3')
obj = s3.Object('data1', 'file12.xml')
body = obj.get()['Body'].read()

Who can help me please?

@salsa I don't know exactly what do you want. My understanding is you have one XML file and you are trying to get/filter some info from that.

Here my code to get info from an XML file

from xml.etree.ElementTree import parse
xmlTree = parse("note.xml")
for element in xmlTree.findall("department"):
    print(element.text)

for element in xmlTree.findall("firstName"):
    print(element.text)

Sample XML format I used is

<Emp>
    <firstName>Rahul</firstName>
    <lastName>Anand</lastName>
    <dob>20/10/1990</dob>
    <gender>Male</gender>
    <department>Finance</department>
    <department>Admin</department>
</Emp>

Result of Python code is

Finance
Admin
Rahul
