Parse XML and Create List From Unique Values

I am building a workflow that requests all the routes in state from our LRS server, returns the values in string format. From there, I want create a list of unique values that is returned and add that back into a Form and use it to populate a ListBox.

Here's what I have so far:

Using the 'Download String' tool, I get the following returned (Note: This is a very shortened list. Over 300 total returns.):

<Route>

 

<RouteID>1000006</RouteID>

 

<RouteSystemID>1</RouteSystemID>

 

<AssignedRoutesID>6</AssignedRoutesID>

 

<GeographicExtentID>718</GeographicExtentID>

 

<RouteName>235</RouteName>

 

<RouteDirection>W</RouteDirection>

 

<FullName>I 235 W</FullName>

 

<OfficialName>STATE OF IOWA, I 235 W</OfficialName>

 

</Route>

 

<Route>

 

<RouteID>7</RouteID>

 

<RouteSystemID>1</RouteSystemID>

 

<AssignedRoutesID>7</AssignedRoutesID>

 

<GeographicExtentID>718</GeographicExtentID>

 

<RouteName>280</RouteName>

 

<RouteDirection>E</RouteDirection>

 

<FullName>I 280 E</FullName>

 

<OfficialName>STATE OF IOWA, I 280 E</OfficialName>

 

</Route>

 

<Route>

 

<RouteID>1000007</RouteID>

 

<RouteSystemID>1</RouteSystemID>

 

<AssignedRoutesID>7</AssignedRoutesID>

 

<GeographicExtentID>718</GeographicExtentID>

 

<RouteName>280</RouteName>

 

<RouteDirection>W</RouteDirection>

 

<FullName>I 280 W</FullName>

 

<OfficialName>STATE OF IOWA, I 280 W</OfficialName>

 

</Route>

 

<Route>

 

<RouteID>1</RouteID>

 

<RouteSystemID>1</RouteSystemID>

 

<AssignedRoutesID>1</AssignedRoutesID>

 

<GeographicExtentID>718</GeographicExtentID>

 

<RouteName>29</RouteName>

 

<RouteDirection>N</RouteDirection>

 

<FullName>I 29 N</FullName>

 

<OfficialName>STATE OF IOWA, I 29 N</OfficialName>

I want to parse out just the "Full Name" values. Using the Assign command and this statement, I can parse out <FullName></FullName> values. The variable strResults is used to store the results from the 'Download String' tool.

strResults.Substring(strResults.IndexOf("<FullName>") + "<FullName>".Length, strResults.IndexOf("</FullName>") - strResults.IndexOf("<FullName>") - "<FullName>".Length)

This will only return the first value. I am stuck on how to read the (~300 unique values) and add them to a list. I also tried converting the string results to a XDocument but I was stuck on how to parse out each unique value.

I assume I need to use a For Each statement, but can't figure it out. Any help would appreciated.

Thanks!

  How did you get the actual XML from the download string? I'm loading the xml feed address into the download string but am getting the configuration, not the actual response.
