Dear imaduddinaf,

I would recommend to try the Rest Custom sensor instead. Even though that one is a bit more complex to create, it is a more powerful sensor and generally recommended for HTTP XML evaluation.

Can you connect with that sensor? If not, does a simple HTTP sensor work (just to test the HTTP availability)?
