Input PortThe Validate node has a single input port that you use to specify the XML you want to be validated by the XML Schemas specified by the Validate node's XML Schemas property. You can specify a default value, or the value can be dynamic (the output from another node in the XML pipeline, for example).

Typically, the Output valid port is piped to another transformation in the XML pipeline, while the Output invalid port is piped to a node like Stop or Warning. |
