Example: Retrieve product model information as XML

Applies to: SQL Server Azure SQL Database Azure SQL Managed Instance

The following query returns product model information. RAW mode is specified in the FOR XML clause.

Example

USE AdventureWorks2022;
GO
SELECT ProductModelID, Name
FROM Production.ProductModel
WHERE ProductModelID IN (122, 119)
FOR XML RAW;
GO

This is the partial result:

<row ProductModelID="122" Name="All-Purpose Bike Stand" />
<row ProductModelID="119" Name="Bike Wash" />

You can retrieve element-centric XML by specifying the ELEMENTS directive.

USE AdventureWorks2022;
GO
SELECT ProductModelID, Name
FROM Production.ProductModel
WHERE ProductModelID IN (122, 119)
FOR XML RAW, ELEMENTS;
GO

This is the result:

<row>
  <ProductModelID>122</ProductModelID>
  <Name>All-Purpose Bike Stand</Name>
</row>
<row>
  <ProductModelID>119</ProductModelID>
  <Name>Bike Wash</Name>
</row>

You can optionally specify the TYPE directive to retrieve the results as xml type. The TYPE directive doesn't change the content of the results. Only the data type of the results is affected.

USE AdventureWorks2022;
GO
SELECT ProductModelID, Name
FROM Production.ProductModel
WHERE ProductModelID IN (122, 119)
FOR XML RAW, TYPE;
GO
