For security, the xml.aspx file is shipped as xml.aspx.config. This makes the file not available for browsing because of the config ForbiddenFileHandler. To use the file temporarily for debugging purposes you should rename the file to xml.aspx.
EasySearch\Xml.aspx is the page used to display XML information about your EasySearch catalog. From this page you can see the catalog data that is currently stored in your EasySearch Catalog as XML, as well as a few administrative functions, such as deleting the EasySearch Catalog, which will cause the catalog to be reconstructed.
This file does not have to remain in the EasySearch directory, and can actually be renamed. This is a common practice if you have a secure directory to move this file, into that directory. If you do rename the Xml.aspx page, we suggest renaming it to EasySearchXml.aspx, so it is easily recognizable.
Sample XML
We have created a dedicated area in our knowledge base to show examples of how the xml.aspx file can be used. We intend for this to grow over time, but to start there are four examples
- XML Word
- XML Words
- XML File
- XML Files
