Suppose I have an XML file of details of employee such as id, name and address and now I want to convert it into JSON file and before the conversation I want to replace specified special character (- , /) with blank space in address field of json document

below are my Dataweave transformation code

%dw 1.0
%output application/json
---
payload map ((payload01 , indexOfPayload01) -> {
    Id: payload01 .d as :string,
    Name: payload01.Name as :string, 
    Address: payload01.Address replace /(?)/ with " "
})

So what should I write within replace /()/ function to replace specials character , - and / with blank space?
