Hi I am trying to bring in an XML table from http://envdata.es.govt.nz/services/data.ashx?f=water-level.xml which has some useful water level data. I have tried different XML readers and can't get it to read the data. Can someone recommend a workflow that will read it.

The URL seems to link to a JSON document rather than XML. Try using the JSON reader or a JSON transformer.

Why not inspect features with Visual/Data Preview and Feature/Record Information before writing them into a destination dataset?
