Hello JRahm,  Thanks for your response. 

What I want to do is the second one as you mentioned. 
I have tried 'html content' with this article https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K99872325, it doesn't work. It seems that 'html content profile' is only for modify HTML content sent in responses from the back-end servers. 

What I want is to modify the request . Do you have any suggestion about  that?

By the way， the request is in the format xml SOAP as below:

 

<Envelope xmlns="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
    <Body>
            <cardsData>
                <card>
                    <expDate>[string]</expDate>
                    <pan>
                        <plainPan>[string?]</plainPan>
                    </pan>
                </card>
                <card>
                    <expDate>[string]</expDate>
                    <pan>
                        <plainPan>[string?]</plainPan>
                    </pan>
                </card>
               can exist serveral cards
    </Body>
</Envelope>

 

Thank you in advance.

Yeah, I found that out myself on the HTML profile, couldn't get it to work on request traffic. What's your virtual server setup look like regarding profiles? Might need to do some payload manipulation in iRules.
