XML document support in M-Files
Former Member
Hello,
I'm new to M-Files and evaluating its capability to manage collections of XML documents. Does M-Files support an "XML Document" class out of the box? Or is this something that would need to be implemented through the API?
I've found it works fine to manage the content as a basic text file, but I'm looking to populate object properties using Xpaths into the file contents as well as manage the schema within the vault and reference it using relative paths.
If I've missed something in the documentation, or there are any online resources related to this, I'd really appreciate the guidance!
Thanks! Dale

Thanks Mika,
I had found the functionality to import XML-based metadata for scanned documents, etc. I was hoping since this functionality is already there, there would be an "out-of-the-box" trick to use the same mechanism for an XML document. I'll check out the event handlers!
As for the schema, I got around it using catalogs and the web server already.
