How to convert Binary Data into XML ???

Avatar

Level 10

I am calling the getTaskInfo method of TaskManagerService class using Web Service API.

The result includes the formdata in two formats:

1.  Binary content of the form

2.  Remote URL of the form data

I have to find a value of a particular field using one of the above information.

I am unable to convert the binary data to XML directly. I have also tried fetch the document based on remoteURL parameter which is also not working.

Any suggestions are highly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Nith,

what does that "binary" stuff look like? If it's a Base64-like string, you could create a document variable by decoding it, then have a look if it's actually XML. If not, it may be a PDF, which you could extract XML data from by using the FormAugmenter service.

Hi Steffen,

I found the same solution and fixed the issue long time back. Just forgot to close this forum topic.

Thanks for your knowledge sharing.
