The GetMeteringDataAsXml method retrieves data from the metering challenge in XML format.
Syntax
String = WMRMMetering.GetMeteringDataAsXml
Parameters
This method takes no parameters.
Return Values
If the method succeeds, it returns a String in XML format containing the metering data. If it fails, it returns a number in the error object.
Remarks
This method returns the metering data as an XML string that you can parse. The metering data is organized by content and then by action type.
You can also retrieve metering data as an object by using the WMRMMetering.GetMeteringData method.
