getXMLData() Method

In ScheduleService, use the getXMLData() method to return, in XML format, the data document generated by a scheduled job. You can use the JobOutputID returned from the scheduleReport() method to retrieve the generated XML document.

Note, the getXMLData() method returns the byte[] of a report document, while the downloadXMLData() Method saves the XML data as a local file. The latter method returns the file ID, enabling the user to download the XML-based document later through the Delivery Service. This is for performance concerns in cases where a report document size is quite large.

Signature

byte[] getXMLData(String JobInstanceID, String userID, String password);
