This is sort of an odd question. I know that SAS has a PROC SOAP for consuming web services. I wonder if anyone has any experience consuming XML from a REST resource using SAS?

In Base SAS 9.2 there is also a new proc called proc http. It was designed specifically to call REST services (or for site scraping). You could also use the url access method for simple get requests. The advantage of proc http is that you can control the http verb used and also pass a payload.
