Hi,  I need to create an XML File, I am following

https://diveshboramsdnavblog.wordpress.com/2018/03/09/vs-code-xml-dom-management-part-2/

I am able to create a simple format as mentioned, but in the requirement, I have child elements under every node. Like Attachment, Can someone suggest how can I achieve this in Business Central Cloud?

Thanks,

    What about using a data exchange definition so you can setup the header and detail elements. Your codeunit could then loop through the definition to produce the required XML

    An appsource extension follows this type of logic. Granted it is for imports though: appsource.microsoft.com/.../pubid.alna_business|aid.alna_document_import|pappid.488c52d8-62aa-492a-a7cd-e257d0e6c1f3

    Thanks, I wanted to use that but as it is a invoice fight which has conditional values to be generated at runtime. not able to do this, it has to find unique Items invoiced in a period and also customer for whom invoice was done.

    So was not possible with that setup
