Then you can use &amp;#39;joinarray&amp;#39; to get the elements as a single text.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;xpathdocument(pv!XMLDocument,&amp;quot;/rootElement&amp;quot;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can refer the link for more details&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="https://forum.appian.com/suite/tempo/#!/news/entry/b-32059"&gt;forum.appian.com/.../&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For converting to Base64 to Text, I don&amp;#39;t think smart service is available out of the box or as a plugin on forum. You may have to write a custom smart service for it.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
