When you specify certain element attributes in an IP XML document, the attribute values must conform to XML rules.

There is no length restriction for an attribute value.
Attribute Restrictions
<user name> An XML string name that conforms to the following:
  • Any character is allowed
  • You must escape characters that have special functions in XML, for example, you must express:
    • “ (double-quotation marks) as &quot
    • & (ampersand) as &amp
    • < (less-than) as &lt

The value of a user name attribute must correspond to an existing Teradata Vantage username.
