Apple Health XML to SQL Server - sql-server

Question

I want to process XML data I've imported from exported Apple Health XML file.
The XML data is stored in an import table and I'm trying to use sp_xml_preparedocument to prepare the document and query the data.
The approach described below worked for another part of the XML file, specifically activity summary. Now I receive the following error:
Msg 6603, Level 16, State 2, Line 23
XML parsing error: NodeTest expected here.
#-->[<--type]
The examples given by Microsoft in their documentation seems to be working on a differently structured data, so not sure how or if I could adapt one of their examples to my needs.
I have tried the following:
DECLARE #XML AS XML;
DECLARE #hDoc AS INT;
SELECT #XML = XMLData FROM [Data].AppleImport;
EXEC sp_xml_preparedocument #hDoc OUTPUT, #XML
SELECT [type],
sourceName,
sourceVersion,
unit,
creationDate,
startDate,
endDate,
[value]
FROM OPENXML(#hDoc, 'HealthData/Record')
WITH
(
[type] NVARCHAR(50) '#[type]',
sourceName NVARCHAR(50) '#sourceName',
sourceVersion NVARCHAR(50) '#sourceVersion',
unit NVARCHAR(50) '#unit',
creationDate NVARCHAR(50) '#creationDate',
startDate NVARCHAR(50) '#startDate',
endDate NVARCHAR(50) '#endDate',
[value] NVARCHAR(50) '#[value]'
)
EXEC sp_xml_removedocument #hDoc;
The XML Data structure (extracted parts for brewity):
<HealthData locale="nb_NO">
<ExportDate value="2020-09-03 12:10:19 +0200"/>
<Me HKCharacteristicTypeIdentifierDateOfBirth="1988-01-01" HKCharacteristicTypeIdentifierBiologicalSex="HKBiologicalSexMale" HKCharacteristicTypeIdentifierBloodType="HKBloodTypeNotSet" HKCharacteristicTypeIdentifierFitzpatrickSkinType="HKFitzpatrickSkinTypeNotSet"/>
<Record type="HKQuantityTypeIdentifierHeight" sourceName="amsten sin iPhone" sourceVersion="13.0" unit="cm" creationDate="2019-09-23 15:19:48 +0200" startDate="2019-09-23 15:19:48 +0200" endDate="2019-09-23 15:19:48 +0200" value="188"/>
<Record type="HKQuantityTypeIdentifierHeight" sourceName="Helse" sourceVersion="11.4.1" unit="cm" creationDate="2018-07-31 21:42:50 +0200" startDate="2018-07-31 21:42:50 +0200" endDate="2018-07-31 21:42:50 +0200" value="188"/>
<MetadataEntry key="HKWasUserEntered" value="1"/>
</Record>
<Record type="HKQuantityTypeIdentifierHeartRate" sourceName="amsten sin Apple Watch" sourceVersion="5.3.1" device="<<HKDevice: 0x2834d03c0>, name:Apple Watch, manufacturer:Apple Inc., model:Watch, hardware:Watch4,4, software:5.3.1>" unit="count/min" creationDate="2019-09-15 06:38:32 +0200" startDate="2019-09-15 06:30:08 +0200" endDate="2019-09-15 06:30:08 +0200" value="49">
<MetadataEntry key="HKMetadataKeyHeartRateMotionContext" value="1"/>
</Record>
</HealthData>
Any input on how to proceede or good reading materials are most appreciated.

Answer 1

When using valid XML also try using the following OPENXML statement:
SELECT [type],
sourceName,
sourceVersion,
unit,
creationDate,
startDate,
endDate,
[value]
FROM OPENXML(#hDoc, 'HealthData/Record')
WITH
(
[type] NVARCHAR(50) '#type',
sourceName NVARCHAR(50) '#sourceName',
sourceVersion NVARCHAR(50) '#sourceVersion',
unit NVARCHAR(50) '#unit',
creationDate NVARCHAR(50) '#creationDate',
startDate NVARCHAR(50) '#startDate',
endDate NVARCHAR(50) '#endDate',
[value] NVARCHAR(50) '#value'
)
Note that '#[type]' and '#[value]' have changed to '#type' and '#value'.
