    Hey CamillaR,

    I suspect the issue is a cpnsequence of readyapi trying to convert your json response i to xml. If your datatype (Content-Type header) is json (e.g. application/json) readyapi converts your json responseto xml, and that is what your seeing.

    The xmlns attribute is typically includedin a schema and can have any value. Itsjust used so the elememts can have unique identifiers (nsmespace prefix). Your xmlns attribute doesnt include a prefix value so this is a default namespace.
    All thatboring stuff aside, you can ignore the contents of the xml tab if your content is json anyway.

    Hope this helps explain,

    Yes, my response is json (Content-type application/json) so I suspected that I could ignore this. Thank's for the confirmation richie.
