Hi GBekkanti,

You can use the following XSLT lines to remove all empty elements from XML:
<xsl:stylesheet version=“1.0” xmlns:xsl=“XSLT Namespace”>
<xsl:output omit-xml-declaration=“yes” indent=“yes”/>
<xsl:strip-space elements=“"/>
<xsl:template match="node()|@
”>
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select=“node()|@“/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match=”
[not(@||comment()|processing-instruction()) and normalize-space()=‘’]”/>
</xsl:stylesheet>

  1. Make file with .xslt extension, and copy paste the lines provided above.
  2. Drag XSLT snap and upload the .xslt file.
