temporal.nodeInsertChild

temporal.nodeInsertChild(
   temporal-collection as String,
   parent as Node,
   new as Node,
   [temporal-doc-uri as String]
) as null

Summary

Adds a new last child to a node in a temporal document. For XML documents, only element nodes and document nodes can have children. For JSON documents, object nodes and array nodes can have children. Element nodes, object nodes, and array nodes cannot have document node children. Document nodes cannot have multiple roots. On-the-fly constructed nodes cannot be updated. The parameters must specify individual nodes and not node sets.

Parameters
temporal-collection	The URI for the protected temporal collection in which the document is to belong. This must have been previously created by the temporal:collectionCreate function. All versions of the temporal document will be associated with this temporal collection.
parent	The parent node which will have a new child node.
new	The new child node to be inserted.
temporal-doc-uri	The URI of the temporal document to be updated.

Usage Notes

The fourth argument "temporal-doc-uri" is not required for documents inserted with MarkLogic 9.0 version of temporal:documentInsert or later.
