SearchRecordsByReport method

[SinghaiPrachi]

Hi,

I am trying to fetch records from a report using SearchRecordsByReport method.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchemainstance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">

  <soap:Body>

    <SearchRecordsByReport xmlns="http://archer-tech.com/webservices/">

      <sessionToken>E9D2E12F29....6BE1</sessionToken>

      <reportIdOrGuid>274F97B...C0F</reportIdOrGuid>

      <pageNumber>1</pageNumber>

    </SearchRecordsByReport>

  </soap:Body>

</soap:Envelope>

But in Response instead of records I am getting 

window.top.location='/Default.aspx?aspxerrorpath=/archer/ws/search.asmx'

Can anyone please suggest on below.

Thanks @DavidPetty , It is working now.

Hi @DavidPetty ,

How can I parse the xml response I am receiving after calling search records by report using API.

Thanks,

Prachi

[DavidPetty]

That depends on the programing language you are using to make the API calls.

I am using Python

[DavidPetty]

Thanks. You'll have to Google to find some Python examples on how to parse XML that's coming back from the APIs.

@DavidPetty , I tried that but the problem is in the response.content i am not getting simple xml data, I am getting xml inside xml which makes it difficult to parse it and google is not helping me.

Attaching response snip I am getting for your reference.

Doing a little searching, it looks like you have to use xml.etree.ElementTree module to unescape the contents of ExecuteSearchResult.
