Posted on by victor-AP

I am trying to execute a flow whenever there are new XML files in a local directory. Read XML file & insert data in Sharepoint List.

I found the way to connect with local drive & run flow as well as read XML file & insert data in Sharepoint-online List. Nice blog here

I want to validate XML file using schema file (XSD) before reading XML content & inserting data in Sharepoint List. Can anyone please help me on this ?

Hi, I want to validate XML string.
There are lot of 3rd party APIs are available to do so.
But is there any built-in solution developed for the same?
If 3rd party APIs are only solution, then what is the best API?
Let me know at the earliest.
Thank you for your efforts!!!🙂

I can't imagine a direct way without using an api, but if you are willing to transform the XSD to a JSON schema (or fiddle with online tools that might be able to do that:

Use a parse JSON and validate against a JSON schema

json(xml(outputs('Compose')))
