Response message

The response is a SOAP message in the following format:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
  <soap:Header>
    <as:queryId xmlns:as="http://xsd.atscale.com/soap_v1" soap:mustUnderstand="0">d40c923a-1c05-4607-98eb-e18bcf38c838</as:queryId>
  </soap:Header>
  <soap:Body>
    <ExecuteResponse xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis">
      <return>
        <root xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis:rowset" xmlns:msxmla="http://schemas.microsoft.com/analysisservices/2003/xmla" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
          <xsd:schema xmlns:sql="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-sql" targetNamespace="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-analysis:rowset" elementFormDefault="qualified">
          </xsd:schema>
          <row>
          </row>
        </root>
      </return>
    </ExecuteResponse>
  </soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

It contains the <xsd:schema> element, and also a <row> element for each entry that matches the request query.

Schema

The <xsd:schema> element provides definition of the elements containing the data you need - <row> and its children.

Row

When the AtScale system finds entries that match the request query, it includes a <row> element for each entry found. A <row> element contains one or more children. The child elements have the same names as the parameters included in the query. The syntax is a follows:

<row>
  <PARAMETER>VALUE</PARAMETER>
</row>

Response example

The documentation for the data catalog API provides many sample responses. Here is an example containing data for the name and description parameters of dimensions:
