In this video, learn how to import XML files to SQL Server using PowerShell.
- [Instructor] Oftentimes when you're … getting data from a third-party vendor … they're going to hand you an XML file. … So once we get that XML file we're going to need … to do something with it. … So we can import that data into PowerShell fairly easily. … And from there we can then actually go ahead … and do whatever it is we need to do with it. … Whatever our business logic requires. … XML objects can be imported into PowerShell … like I said, fairly easily. … And then once that data is imported … we can do whatever it is that we need to do. … Our business logic could be to just display it … on the screen, which is what we're going to do … in the demo here in a second. … Or we can import that data when we do … some sort of processing on that data … which is probably going to be what you … actually going to need to do. … So you could take that data, once imported … and you can pass it to a foreach loop, for example, … and then you can do processing on that data … row by row until you're done processing all that data. …
