Karate API pass def variable in XML

I defined a variable with 

* def token = '1bce02b8..'

I would like to retrieve the variable I defined so I can pass this to my SOAP request. How can I make this possible?

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ws="http://ws.com">
   <soapenv:Header/>
   <soapenv:Body>
      <ws:isValid>
         <token>$token</token>
      </ws:isValid>
   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

Easy, use embedded expressions in the #(foo) form, they work for XML as well:

* def token = 'foo'
* def payload =
"""
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ws="http://ws.com">
   <soapenv:Header/>
   <soapenv:Body>
      <ws:isValid>
         <token>#(token)</token>
      </ws:isValid>
   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
"""
* print payload

Which prints:

[print] <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:ws="http://ws.com">
  <soapenv:Header/>
  <soapenv:Body>
    <ws:isValid>
      <token>foo</token>
    </ws:isValid>
  </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

I suggest you also refer to this set of examples, specifically for XML that will give you more ideas: xml.feature
