Conversion XML to JSON using template failed

Here i am using api http://www.purgomalum.com/

in this as i use http://www.purgomalum.com/service/json?text=sadd

and convert it into xml using template, it works fine

But as i use http://www.purgomalum.com/service/xml?text=sadd
now i get xml result properly now i want to change to json using template it will show me
{
“result”:“”
}

for this i did same response body transformation means when i use json transformation is

response body transformation for GET : json/{text} input type: json

template

<result>{{.result}}</result>

this works fine

but now for xml
response body tranformation for GET : xml/{text} input type: xml

template:
{
“result”:{{.PurgoMalum.result}}
}

Help me out to convert xml to json using template

Thanks in advance

Hello!

I see an error in your JSON template:

{
“result”: "{{.PurgoMalum.result}}"
}

I wrapped value to quotes ^, otherwise, it will not be valid json.

Additionally, you can try using “index” function like this: {{index . "PurgoMalum" "result"}} which basically allows you to define path you want to get.

Hope it helps!
