Dear All.

i have some use to parse or directly point Elasticsearch to query DSL on top of raw ccda xml file.

`below is the demo ccdaraw.xml file link:`  
link [raw CCDA.xml file](https://github.com/jmandel/sample_ccdas/blob/master/HL7%20Samples/CCD.sample.xml)

Note : we have huge number of raw CCDA.xml file and we want to query DSL directly or we can create seperate index like :- demography ,medication ,result so on.....

> Note : - this is very useful for healthcare industries and we are facing this issue please some help about this .

Thanks

Have you tried using an xml filter?

Hi @Badger.

Thanks

I tried but not success !!!

below is code for finding :

> input {  
> file {  
> path =\> "D:/RameshKumar/ccdnew.xml"  
> sincedb\_path =\> "CCD.xml" #removed "NULL" \>AND ADDED FILE NAME  
> start\_position =\> beginning

}  
}  
filter {  
xml {  
store\_xml =\> false  
source =\> "message"  
target =\> "" #ADDED

xpath =\>  
[  
"/ClinicalDocument/documentInfo/source/text()", "sourcedata",  
"/ClinicalDocument/documentInfo/type/text()","type11"

```
		]

```

}

}  
output {  
elasticsearch {  
hosts =\> ["localhost:9200"]  
index =\> "healthdata11"  
}  
stdout  
{  
codec =\> rubydebug  
}  
}.

`but we want to parse all tags content like result,medication,demography etc....`

Thanks
