How can I get body from a post with the same parent node but different child node?

Question

Hi, now I need to get the body from a post. Here is the code:

public string GetMsg([FromBody]xml x)
{
return "";
} 
public class xml { 
public string ToUserName { get; set; }
public string FromUserName { get; set; }
public string CreateTime { get; set; }
public string MsgType { get; set; }
public string Content { get; set; }
public string MsgId { get; set; }
}

These codes work well.

However, the remote server will post several XML to my server with the same parent node but different child nodes for different functions.

For example:

<xml>
  <ToUserName><![CDATA[toUser]]></ToUserName>
  <FromUserName><![CDATA[fromUser]]></FromUserName>
  <CreateTime>1348831860</CreateTime>
  <MsgType><![CDATA[text]]></MsgType>
  <Content><![CDATA[this is a test]]></Content>
  <MsgId>1234567890123456</MsgId>
</xml>

<xml>
  <ToUserName><![CDATA[toUser]]></ToUserName>
  <FromUserName><![CDATA[fromUser]]></FromUserName>
  <CreateTime>1357290913</CreateTime>
  <MsgType><![CDATA[voice]]></MsgType>
  <MediaId><![CDATA[media_id]]></MediaId>
  <Format><![CDATA[Format]]></Format>
  <MsgId>1234567890123456</MsgId>
</xml>

<xml>
  <ToUserName><![CDATA[toUser]]></ToUserName>
  <FromUserName><![CDATA[fromUser]]></FromUserName>
  <CreateTime>1357290913</CreateTime>
  <MsgType><![CDATA[video]]></MsgType>
  <MediaId><![CDATA[media_id]]></MediaId>
  <ThumbMediaId><![CDATA[thumb_media_id]]></ThumbMediaId>
  <MsgId>1234567890123456</MsgId>
</xml>

I can only define one 'xml' class in a cs file, now it seems I have to create many cs file and define the 'xml' class in each of them.

It is so troublesome. And also, I can change the code of the remote server. 

How can I deal with this? Thank you.

You can use different classes, and use a class xml attribute to set the root name to “xml”.

Thank you. By using the [XmlRoot("xml")]  ,it works.
