Here is what I did to successfully extract data from an xml file. This is an example that pulls the open and closed hours from an xml file. You can easily extend this to map names:
variable: systemTimeURL (type = document, value=URL[http:///file.xml])
variable: systemTime (type=document value=null)
variable: openHours (type=string value=null)
This is what the xml file looks like:
0600
2300
Steps:
Create XML Document (Source Document=systemTimeURL Result Document=systemTime)
Extract XML Document Data (Document=systemTime, XML Path=/descendant::times/child::open, Result Data=openHours)
That gives you your name. Replace the "/descendant::times/child::open" path with "/descendant::times/child::" when you extract the data from the xml file. To do that you might need to make a string variable that is the concatenation of "/descendant::times/child::" and "". I suspect there are more elegant ways to do it, but this is what I got to work.
attached is an example file that I made (it does something different, but the idea of extracting sml data is the same).
