...not as a setting for the whole project, but since Operational Metadata should be selected carefully, for the jobs that need it....it can be done via dsjob, from the command line, for each job that you start.

The alias setting in 8.7 is done with the 4th button to the right after you click on Manage Lineage. You will need to have run automated services (the large button, labeled as Detect Associations) first --- this will pick up all the different server string + Stage combinations that are found.... ......

Don't know. Let's see what the header looks like. Can you paste it here, with the schemaLocation attribute displayed?

We've suggested. ALL the answers are HERE in many threads over the years...just do some searching and reading. Get the best practices document as noted above...the answer is in there, directly. As I noted earlier, it requires multiple xml stages....you build each repeating path on its own, then comb...

...and be sure also to look for xml best practices. There is a document that outlines how this is done using multiple xml output stages in a single job.

...if you are in 8.7, the new xml stage is also an alternative.

For starters, don't use the sequential stage to read your file...it will only get you into trouble later on if the xml document changes slightly...one stray CRLF and usually that method will cause you all kinds of problems. Use the External Source and send in a file list and check the "url"...

Have you done any searches? There are hundreds of threads with a similar subject....you need to use the xml metadata importer and define your columns ---- when you do, your xpath will be in the description property of your table def.

That's a fairly straightforward query using Metadata Workbench... :) Alas, going directly after xmeta is sometimes useful, but can be difficult because of the relationships within, and some of the datatypes that are used. The most interesting thing I've done with it was to write an RSS query against...

I can't think of a way to do it using the WS Stage...it only delivers the SOAP envelope to you....if you need something outside of that, "perhaps" a pure java client can do it, using JavaPack......assuming that any old java class can easily do it. I'd start by researching how to capture co...
