Q: 

Getting list of items through share point web service

I want to get a list of documents which are in Shared Documents (this is the Document Library). I am using the GetListItems web service.

I am getting response with list of rows. But I don't see a word document which is created under that. Am I doing something wrong?

+2  A: 

The GetListItems method does not return actual documents, it returns the ListItem information (metadata). It should include a Url (FileRef / FileLeafRef) property you can use to download the documents by looping through the method's result.

Yes, 'GetListItems' returns only List Item information. But I am unable to see "document url" of a document which is created by me. It returns me some rows but I don't find my document in that.I have given query options as below with listName as guid of "Shared Documents"<QueryOptions> <Folder></Folder> <IncludeMandatoryColumns>FALSE</IncludeMandatoryColumns> <ViewAttributes Scope="Recursive"/><IncludeAttachmentUrls>TRUE</IncludeAttachmentUrls></QueryOptions>

Include a ViewFields section in your xml, use FieldRef elements inside that to specify which fields should be returned by the query.

I am able to read list items successfully. I made a mistake in Gateway URL, which was point to root URL instead of the one which I have permission.
