Downloading XML Information to Alteryx

Hello --

 

I am trying to download XML pages into Alteyrx so I can get Corporate Tax rates.

 

https://www.ey.com/ecimages/taxguides/wctg-2019/wctg-af.xmlEY.jpgAll I get is strange characters. My workflow is attached. I keep getting an error that says "No Data received, check the headers.

 

Thanks,

Seth

Hey @smoskowitz,

 

Whenever I get foreign characters, I try to mess with the code page. In the download tool there is a configuration that says "Data encoded as". I changed it to Unicode UTF-16 and got a response. From there, you could try using the xml parse tool to continue to parse your data. Hope that helps!
