Remove_fields dynamic

Is there a way to use remove_fields as in a dynamic way
for example:

 remove_field => ["message",
                  "[Request][Header]",
			      "[Request][xmlns:xsi]",
			      "[Request][Body][q1:InvoiceQueryOpenRequest][*][xlp:type]"
			  ]

to remove xlp:type within all fields

the parsed xml is this:

<soap:Body soap:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
        <tns:getOpenInvoices>
            <invoiceQueryOpenRequest href="#id1" />
        </tns:getOpenInvoices>
        <q1:InvoiceQueryOpenRequest id="id1" xsi:type="q1:InvoiceQueryOpenRequest" xmlns:q1="java:com.turkcelltech.collgw.model.invoice">
            <bankId xsi:type="xsd:int">23</bankId>
            <compId xsi:type="xsd:int">533</compId>
            <curr xsi:type="xsd:string">949</curr>
            <custId xsi:nil="true" />
            <invCount xsi:type="xsd:int">5</invCount>
            <msgDate xsi:nil="true" />
            <msisdn xsi:type="xsd:long">****************</msisdn>
            <orig xsi:nil="true" />
            <period xsi:type="xsd:string">201901</period>
            <procDate xsi:nil="true" />
            <procTime xsi:nil="true" />
            <sessionId xsi:type="xsd:string">*****************</sessionId>
            <stan xsi:type="xsd:long">0</stan>
        </q1:InvoiceQueryOpenRequest>
    </soap:Body>

No, you cannot do that with remove_field. You might be able to remove items from the XML using mutate+gsub filter or from the parsed XML using a ruby filter. That's not the parsed XML, right? It is the XML itself. What does xlp:type refer to?

Yes it is the main XML it is parsed to JSON and xlp:type is written wrong it suppose to be xsi:type. So I need to use ruby filter to remove xsi:type within my json file.

My json output:

         }
      }
   }

Why not use mutate+gsub to remove it before parsing?

You are right, in my config file I add another filter like this and its worked

filter {
	mutate {
			gsub => ["message", "xsi:\w+=(?<grp1>\"|')\w+(:\w+)?\k<grp1>\s*", ""]
	}
}
