Extract only certain tags from an XML using XML filter plugin

Hi,

I am using XML filter to extract certain tags from an XML input. But the filter doesnt seem to be working correctly.

PFB sample XML.

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ns="http://capabilities.nat.bt.com/xsd/ManageEventNotification/2006/12/30" xmlns:stan="http://wsi.nat.bt.com/2005/06/StandardHeader/" xmlns:even="http://capabilities.nat.bt.com/xsd/ManageEventNotification/2006/12/30/CCM/Events">

PFB snippet from my logstash.conf

xml {
        source => "inputxml"
		target => "xml"
		store_xml => "false"
		force_array => "false"
		xpath => [
            "/xml/Body/subscribe/subscribe/consumerReference/address/text()", "even_address",
            "/xml/Body/subscribe/standardHeader/serviceAddressing/messageId/text()", "sub_messageId",
			"/xml/Body/unsubscribe/subscriptionReference/address/text()", "uuid",
            "/xml/Body/unsubscribe/standardHeader/serviceAddressing/messageId/text()", "unsub_messageId"
		]
	}

I would require only 4 fields from the above XML. TIA.

Try

    remove_namespaces => true
    xpath => [
        "/Envelope/Body/subscribe/subscribe/consumerReference/address/text()", "even_address",
        "/Envelope/Body/subscribe/standardHeader/serviceAddressing/messageId/text()", "sub_messageId",
        "/Envelope/Body/unsubscribe/subscriptionReference/address/text()", "uuid",
        "/Envelope/Body/unsubscribe/standardHeader/serviceAddressing/messageId/text()", "unsub_messageId"
    ]
