<api xmlns="http://ws.apache.org/ns/synapse" name="simpleIterator" context="/simpleIterator">
   <resource methods="POST">
      <inSequence>
         <property name="root_element">

         </property>
         <iterate expression="//symbols/symbol" sequential="true">

               <sequence>
                  <property name="messageType" value="application/xml" scope="axis2"/>
