==Usage==

This activity is used to create a single XML element below an existing element, as a nested activity within a [[CreateXMLScope (Activity)|CreateXMLScope]] activity. It is a nestable activity, which means it can host a sub activity that will be processed. The hosted activities are typically [[CreateXMLElement (Activity)|CreateXMLElement]] again, or [[CreateXMLAttribute (Activity)|CreateXMLAttribute]] activities, either as direct children or wrapped into other activities like ''ForEach'' or ''Sequence''.

{{Attention|This activity provides the created XML element automatically to all XML sub activities, so the XML hierarchy will be built in the very way sub activities are nested!}}
