List Element

A list is an XML element that can contain multiple simple type values in the same element or attribute. The Data Integration Service can process a list in the input data if the list is represented as consolidated string of data.

If each item in the list is a separate element, such as ClassDates1, ClassDates2, and ClassDates3, the Data Integration Service cannot process the items as a list. You can use an Expression transformation to combine them into a string if you need to return a list in a SOAP message.

The following input rows contain a list element called ClassDates that contains days of the week:

CourseID	Name	ClassDates
Math 1	Beginning Algebra	Mon Wed Fri
History 1	World History	Tue Thu

The Data Integration Service can return a SOAP message with the following XML structure:

<class>
   <courseId>Math 1</courseId>
   <name>Beginning Algebra</name>
   <classDates>Mon Wed Fri</classDates>
</class>
<class>
   <courseId>History 1</courseId>
   <name>World History</name>
   <classDates>Tue Thu</classDates>
</class>
