Then the Namespace Editor panel would appear where you can provide any number of namespace prefixes and URLs used in the XPath expression. |

Examples
In this example, when an event notification comes to the EventingProxy proxy service, they are processed by the PublicEventSource sequence, which logs the messages and publishes them to the topic SampleEventSource. Services that subscribe to the topic SampleEventSource will then receive these messages.
