SoapUi getting request parameters

Dear all, if I have this request, how can i use the input value from tag "tid" and set it on "signature" tag? For example: <request>             <tid>TEST</tid>             <Type>OneType</Type...

<request>
    <tid>TEST</tid>
    <Type>OneType</Type>
    <signature>${TEST_STEP_NAME#Request#//request/tid}</signature>
</request>

Or if you do not want to hard-code the test step name:

    <signature>${${=context.getCurrentStep().getLabel()}#Request#//request/tid}</signature>

    Is your actual request structure the same as you posted? If it's different, you need to adjust the XPath expression that refers to the desired node. It's this part:

    <signature>${TEST_STEP_NAME#Request#//request/tid}</signature>

      I'm using this code but signature field is null.

      There is somethings others I can try?

      Thanks in advance

       

      <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:[...]
         <soapenv:Header/>
         <soapenv:Body>
            <ser:Init>
               <request>
                  <tid>TEST</tid>
                  <signature>${RequestTest#Request#//Init/request/tid/text()}</signature>

      [...]

        For elements with namespace prefixes, you need to include this prefix in the property expansion:

        ${RequestTest#Request#//ser:Init/request/tid}

         

        Actually, the following should be enough, since your XML has only one element "tid":

        ${RequestTest#Request#//tid}
