Using namespaces with XMLports - Business Central | Microsoft Learn
February 24, 2025 - You declare the namespaces used in the XMLport using the Namespaces property. For each namespace, you specify a prefix and a namespace name. You can declare a default namespace by defining an empty prefix "". In the XML documents exported or imported by the XMLport, the namespaces declarations are only supported in the <root> element.

NamespacePrefix property - Business Central | Microsoft Learn
You can only set the property to a prefix that is declared in the Namespaces property of the XMLport. This property only applies to element node types and will be ignored if it is set in textattribute and fieldattribute nodes.

How to remove the namespace and its prefixes in an XML file using XSLT?
The following XSLT should be used to strip all the namespace and prefixes in the XML document. <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" /> <xsl:template match="/|comment()|processing-instruction()"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:apply-templates /> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="*"> <xsl:element name="{local-name()}"> <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()" /> </xsl:element> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="@*"> <xsl:attribute name="{local-name()}"> <xsl:value-of select="." /> </xsl:attribute> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet>

r/xml on Reddit: How can i remove namespace prefix without removing the xmlns tag?
June 20, 2024 -

I am using this xslt but it does not remove the prefix after xmlns:

Sample input:

<root> <ns1:AppHdr xmlns:ns1="http://example.com/ns1"> <ns1:sender>Sender1</ns1:sender> <ns1:receiver>Receiver1</ns1:receiver> </ns1:AppHdr> <ns2:Document xmlns:ns2="http://example.com/ns2"> <ns2:title>Document Title</ns2:title> <ns2:author>Author Name</ns2:author> </ns2:Document> </root>

Expected output:

<root> <AppHdr xmlns="http://example.com/ns1"> <sender>Sender1</sender> <receiver>Receiver1</receiver> </AppHdr> <Document xmlns="http://example.com/ns2"> <title>Document Title</title> <author>Author Name</author> </Document> </root>

Output with current xslt:

<root> <AppHdr xmlns:ns1="http://example.com/ns1"> <sender>Sender1</sender> <receiver>Receiver1</receiver> </AppHdr> <Document xmlns:ns2="http://example.com/ns2"> <title>Document Title</title> <author>Author Name</author> </Document> </root>

although your question has been open for a long time, it still deserves an answer...

  1. you can set the default namespace for a whole node (and all its subnodes) with the Attribute xmlns - so if you set the SOAP Envelope as default NS, you can omit the namespace prefix s:
<Envelope xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:u="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd">
    <Header>
        <o:Security mustUnderstand="1" xmlns:o="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd">
            <u:Timestamp u:Id="_0">
                <u:Created>2019-10-22T17:00:03.259Z</u:Created>
                <u:Expires>2019-10-22T17:05:03.259Z</u:Expires>
            </u:Timestamp>
            <o:UsernameToken u:Id="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx">
                <o:Username>xxxxxxxxxxxx</o:Username>
                <o:Password Type="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-username-token-profile-1.0#PasswordText">xxxxxxxxxxxxx</o:Password>
            </o:UsernameToken>
        </o:Security>
    </Header>
    <Body>
        <Parent xmlns="https://www.provexchnet.com/dsi">
            <child xmlns:a="http://urlone.org" xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
                <a:Grandchild>REGISTER</a:Grandchild>
            </child>
        </Parent>
    </Body>
</Envelope>
  1. the same thing: just change the default namespace for node child to the one that has been declared as a:
<Envelope xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:u="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd">
    <Header>
        <o:Security mustUnderstand="1" xmlns:o="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd">
            <u:Timestamp u:Id="_0">
                <u:Created>2019-10-22T17:00:03.259Z</u:Created>
                <u:Expires>2019-10-22T17:05:03.259Z</u:Expires>
            </u:Timestamp>
            <o:UsernameToken u:Id="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx">
                <o:Username>xxxxxxxxxxxx</o:Username>
                <o:Password Type="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-username-token-profile-1.0#PasswordText">xxxxxxxxxxxxx</o:Password>
            </o:UsernameToken>
        </o:Security>
    </Header>
    <Body>
        <Parent xmlns="https://www.provexchnet.com/dsi">
            <child xmlns="http://urlone.org" xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
                <Grandchild>REGISTER</Grandchild>
            </child>
        </Parent>
    </Body>
</Envelope>
  1. as long you don't change the default namespace xmlns, the default from child is "inherited" to all its subnodes - including grandchild

I hope, that helps :)
