The exportLibraryStructure interface is used to export libraries, folders, and shared steps objects as XML files. The following table shows the parameters of the exportLibraryStructure interface.
Interface URL | Parameter | Descriptions |

The following code uses Apache HttpClient to export libraries.
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.*; // Apache HttpClient String webServiceToken = "e39a0b5b-45db-42db-84b2-b85028d954d5"; URL service = new URL("http", mWebServiceHelper.getHost(), mWebServiceHelper.getPort(), String.format("/servicesExchange?hid=%s&sid=%s&nodeID=%d", "exportLibraryStructure", webServiceToken, NODE_ID)); HttpClient client = new HttpClient(); client.getHttpConnectionManager().getParams().setConnectionTimeout(60000); HttpMethod fileGet = new GetMethod(service.toExternalForm()); int status = client.executeMethod(fileGet); System.out.println(fileGet.getStatusLine()); String exportedTestPlanResponse = fileGet.getResponseBodyAsString(); System.out.println(exportedTestPlanResponse);
