Additional downstream properties
XPath: XMLField -> ResultField — The value of this property specifies an XPath expression that should be evaluated for the specified XMLField, with the result put into the ResultField in the normalised event. Only simple data types (boolean/float/string) can be returned at present, so XPath expressions that match multiple nodes only return the first matching node. See XPath examples.
trimXMLText — If true, the XML codec removes any leading or trailing whitespace characters from XML text data in downstream messages before adding the text to the normalised event. The default is true.
