Reading data from Sharepoint List

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 16:26:21 GMT

Hi everybody! I am tring to read data from a URL from SharePoint. I had read otrher topics related with this, but I cant achieve load data from XML file. I uses RPC-calls using owssvr.dll.

I have this URL that it Works:

http://my_server_name/_layouts/15/start.aspx#/_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?Cmd=Display&XMLDATA=0&RowLimit=0&List=%7B987D330C%2D6C04%2D41B0%2DAB86%2DCA5050E11DBF%7D&View=%7BD61B34EF%2D0A60%2D4FBB%2DB123%2D7D00CB4AEB5D%7D

When I put this URL in my browser, it downloads the file owssvr.xml. I can load this file in Qlikview as text but I dont want this.

I want to put this URL in the Qlikview script, then Web File and finally XML File Type, in Tables Tab are all tables in HTML code and nothing in XML. There isnot the table xml/data/row.

Why happens this? What is wrong? I attached a screenshot of when I try to load this URL in Qlikview script.

Thank you!!

Andrés.

With the URL you specify you specifically specify that you dont want XML.... XMLDATA=0

That should be changed to TRUE I think like this. ...... XMLDATA=TRUE

‌This is the old style FrontPage RPC that can return data in many formats and not necessarily XML as a true webservice would normally do.
