# ParseXml

The `ParseXml` parameter specifies whether the connector parses XML files.

When XML files are processed by CFS, KeyView extracts the text from the file and discards the XML tags. This means that the content of the files is captured, but the structure and field names are lost. The text extracted by KeyView is added to the `DRECONTENT` field in IDOL Server.

The connector can parse XML files and convert XML elements and values to DRE fields and field values. This means that the XML field names are preserved when the document is indexed into IDOL Server.

If you want the connector to parse XML files, set this parameter to `true`.

You can use this parameter when you have exported documents from an application in XML format and want to index them into IDOL Server through the File System Connector.

NOTE: The connector expects each XML file to contain a single document.
