I hope to get the value of ZZZZZZ from the following xml in sql. If I use extractValue or extract of xmlType, what tag should I retrieve the value? looks I tried "info" , and it is not working. or maybe my syntax is wrong?
<report>
  
      <task_stats>
        <info_group name="task_info">
          <info name="status">ZZZZZZZ</info>
        </info_group>
      </task_stats>

</report>

Maybe if you post it we can say.

Use code tags not quote one to post code.

I don't have the source code for the pre_rept, but I printed out the rept , the rept as below:

dbms_output.put_line('rept is ' || rept);


<report>
<task_stats>
<info_group name="task_info">
<info name="status">ZZZZZZZ</info>
</info_group>
</task_stats>
</report>

So you have rep, you don't need the code of the procedure that generates it to post an execution of what you have after:
SQL> with data as (
  2    select xmltype('<report>
  3  <task_stats>
  4  <info_group name="task_info">
  5  <info name="status">ZZZZZZZ</info>
  6  </info_group>
  7  </task_stats>
  8  </report>') d from dual
  9    )
 10  select extractvalue(d,'/report/task_stats/info_group/info') val
 11  from data
 12  /
VAL
----------------------------------------------------------------
ZZZZZZZ

1 row selected.

 rept := dbms_report.get_report(rref);
 dbms_output.put_line('rept is ' || rept);
  -- rept  output as above sample

  with data as ( select xmltype(rept) rept_xml from dual)

--  select extractvalue(rept_xml,  '/report/task_stats/info_group/info') val from dual;
  select extractvalue(rept_xml,  '/report/task_stats/info_group/info') into key_enable from dual;
  select extractvalue(rept_xml,  '/report/task_stats/info_group/info').getstringval() into key_enable from dual;


 dbms_output.put_line( 'key_enable is ' || key_enable);
                  
END

Which line is line 19?
Use SQL*Plus and copy and paste your session as I did (with "set echo on" if you call a script).
Post your Oracle version with 4 decimals.

Clean your test case, it is so a mess that you can't see the obvious. For instance:
SQL> DECLARE
  2    rept          varchar2(4000);
  3    rept_xml      varchar2(4000);
  4    rref          varchar2(4000);
  5    key_enable    varchar2(20);
  6  
  7  BEGIN
  8  
  9   -- rept := dbms_report.get_report(rref);
 10   rept := '<report>
 11    
 12        <task_stats>
 13          <info_group name="task_info">
 14            <info name="status">ZZZZZZZ</info>
 15          </info_group>
 16        </task_stats>
 17  
 18  </report>';
 19   dbms_output.put_line('rept is ' || rept);
 20    -- rept  output as above sample
 21  
 22    with data as ( select xmltype(rept) rept_xml from dual)
 23    select extractvalue(rept_xml,  '/report/task_stats/info_group/info') 
 24      into key_enable from data; -- not dual
 25  
 26   dbms_output.put_line( 'key_enable is ' || key_enable);
 27                    
 28  END;
 29  /
rept is <report>

      <task_stats>
        <info_group name="task_info">
          <info name="status">ZZZZZZZ</info>

        </info_group>
      </task_stats>

</report>
key_enable is ZZZZZZZ

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

Can we specify the sub attributes "name="status" when there are multiple attrubutes ?


<task_stats>
<info_group name="task_info">
<info name="status_1">ZZZZZZZ</info>
<info name="status_2">xxxxxx</info>

</info_group>
</task_stats>


select extractvalue(rept_xml, '/report/task_stats/info_group/info[position()=1]')
into key_enable from data;



I can use the extractvalue with position parameter to get the first element of info, but thought we may specify the parameter (like "name+"status_1" ) to limit the query, but don't find how to do it.

Is there a way that we can specify the paramter for this?

Thanks,
