id : $Xml.Evaluate('CustomerId')
 });
$Xml.InnerXml( 'Customers', results.join() );

   id : $Xml.Evaluate('CustomerId')
});

Example

Query Insert

$XmlRepository.Query('insert node (<Kaynak><Id>{$newId}</Id><Ad>{$newName}</Ad></Kaynak>) as last into /KVKEnvanter/Tanimlar/Kaynaklar', {
    newId: newId,
    newName: name.trim()
});

Example

Query Delete

$XmlRepository.Query('let $nodeValue := fn:parse-xml-fragment($nodeValue)' +
                     'for $record in Relation[Id=$id]/RepHistory/RepHistoryRecord[InstanceId=$instanceId] return ' +
                     '(delete node $record)', {
   id : relationId,
   instanceId : $Xml.Evaluate('SelectedHistory/Id'),
   nodeValue : $Xml.SelectSingle('.').InnerXml()
});

If you want to query the database of a process, you can use the collection keyword. You have to give the name of the database which is a GUID. For process databases, you can have that GUID by $Instance.ProcessId.

Example

Querying process database
var results = $XmlRepository.Query('collection("49551ed3-6229-408a-aaaa-eb510463acad")//Customer[Id=$id]', {
   id : $Xml.Evaluate('CustomerId')
 });
$Xml.InnerXml( 'Customers', results[0].Evaluate('Id') );
