xml.Unmarshal error: "expected element type but have "

Question

I'm trying to unmarshal the following XML, but am receiving an error. ``` B005XSS8VC ``` Here are my structs: ``` type Product struct { XMLName xml.Name `xml:"Item"` ASIN string } type Result struct { XMLName xml.Name `xml:"ItemSearchResponse"` Products []Product `xml:"Items"` } ``` The text of the error is "expected element type `` but have ``," but I can't see where I'm going wrong. Any help is appreciated. ``` v := &Result{Products: nil} err = xml.Unmarshal(xmlBody, v) ```

Accepted Answer

This works for me (note the `Items>Item`):

```
type Result struct {
XMLName       xml.Name `xml:"ItemSearchResponse"`
Products      []Product `xml:"Items>Item"`
}

type Product struct {
    ASIN   string `xml:"ASIN"`
}
```

xml.Unmarshal error: "expected element type <Item> but have <Items>"
