Code I am trying:

ListItemCollection listItemCollection;  
var list = web.Lists.GetByTitle("User Information List");  
clientcontext.ExecuteQuery();  
  
// Load the items and folders.  
CamlQuery camlQuery = new CamlQuery();  
camlQuery.ViewXml = "<View Scope=\"RecursiveAll\"></View>";  
  
listItemCollection = list.GetItems(camlQuery);  
clientcontext.Load(listItemCollection);  
clientcontext.ExecuteQuery();  

Please help, Thanks in advance !

Hi @Yuvraj Patil ,
Your caml query is incorrect, I have tested following code and it works. Please make a reference.

ListItemCollection listItemCollection;  
var list = web.Lists.GetByTitle("User Information List");  
ctx.ExecuteQuery();  
  
// Load the items and folders.  
CamlQuery camlQuery = new CamlQuery();  
camlQuery.ViewXml = "<View Scope=\'RecursiveAll\'><Query></Query></View>";  
  
listItemCollection = list.GetItems(camlQuery);           
ctx.Load(listItemCollection);  
ctx.ExecuteQuery();
