InfoPath and Webs.asmx Web Service
Hi,
Did you try to consume data from webs.asmx into InfoPath Forms?
I did, and found problems, as InfoPath was not able to generate the full schema (or SharePoint did not generate the expected WSDL).
Although there are some limitations in the Web Services InfoPath support https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb852081.aspx
I manage to change imported schema in order to get subwebs from a site. So feel free to get the attached file if you found the same problem.
Ciao!

The problem with SP web services is that they like to use raw untyped XML (<xs:any/>) in both requests and replies, something that neither InfoPath nor many other tools (such as SSIS) like.We just ended up writing our own Web services to wrap all SharePoint ones, with proper WSDL. - Anonymous
