Want to use OPENROWSET to open Local XML file in SQL Server

I'm doing some testing in SSMS with various XML files on my LOCAL disk (in my C:\Temp folder), but I am connected to a remote test SQL Server. Is there any way to do something like this:

DECLARE @xml xml

-- Want to read from my local, but this attempts to read from the SQL Server's C drive
SELECT @xml = CONVERT(XML, BulkColumn)
FROM OPENROWSET(BULK 'C:\Temp\Test.xml', SINGLE_BLOB) AS x;

-- Insert into table on the remote SQL Server
INSERT INTO dbo.MyTable (StatementType, OperatingDate, StatementAmount)
SELECT  doc.col.value('(StatementType)[1]', 'nvarchar(100)') StatementType
     ,doc.col.value('(OperatingDate)[1]', 'nvarchar(100)') OperatingDate
     ,doc.col.value('(StatementAmount)[1]', 'numeric(12,2)') StatementAmount
FROM @xml.nodes('/Level1/Level2') doc(col)

I've searched for the answer to this, but have not found it. And yes, I know I could create a test SQL Server locally on my machine, and no, I don't have access to copy the test XML files onto the SQL Server machine. But really, I just want to know if there's any way to do what I am asking.

SQL Server can only bulk load from a drive it has access to. Unless you somehow connect the client's drive to the server (probably a bad idea) it won't work.

Instead, you can use Powershell to send the data via a parameterized query. Invoke-SqlCmd doesn't work well with parameters, you should use the DbaTools Invoke-DbaQuery instead

$xml = Get-Content -Path "C:\SomePath" -Raw;
$xmlParam = New-DbaSqlParameter -ParameterName "@xml" -SqlDbType Xml -SqlValue $xml;

Invoke-DbaQuery `
  -SqlInstance ".\SQLEXPRESS" `
  -SqlParameter $xml `
  -Query @"
INSERT INTO dbo.MyTable
  (StatementType, OperatingDate, StatementAmount)
SELECT
  doc.col.value('(StatementType  /text())[1]', 'nvarchar(100)'),
  doc.col.value('(OperatingDate  /text())[1]', 'nvarchar(100)'),
  doc.col.value('(StatementAmount/text())[1]', 'numeric(12,2)')
FROM @xml.nodes('/Level1/Level2') doc(col);
"@;

Only if u are in a protected network try this. Share a folder on your computer and put there your file. Grant access to this folder to everyone.

In the query aim to your pc \yourpc\folderwithonlyonefile\file.xml

Lmk!!

Since this is only testing on my local machine as mentioned, I have no problem accessing the local file system. Thus, this is a solution that worked fine for me.

EXECUTE sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1;  
RECONFIGURE;  
GO  
EXECUTE sp_configure 'xp_cmdshell', 1;  
RECONFIGURE;  
GO  

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS #xmlfile;
CREATE TABLE #xmlfile ([xmldata] NVARCHAR(max));

DECLARE @Cmd NVARCHAR(50) = 'TYPE "C:\temp\test.xml"';
DECLARE @xmlstring NVARCHAR(MAX);
DECLARE @xml XML;

-- Insert the file's data into the temp table
INSERT INTO #xmlfile EXEC master.dbo.xp_cmdshell @Cmd; 
SELECT @xmlstring = COALESCE(@xmlstring, '') + xmldata FROM #xmlfile  -- get all rows into a string
SET @xml = CONVERT(xml, @xmlstring);  -- convert string to xml and store in variable

-- Output @xml to test
SELECT  doc.col.value('(StatementType)[1]', 'nvarchar(100)') StatementType
     ,doc.col.value('(OperatingDate)[1]', 'nvarchar(100)') OperatingDate
     ,doc.col.value('(StatementAmount)[1]', 'numeric(12,2)') StatementAmount
FROM @xml.nodes('/Level1/Level2') doc(col)

UPDATE Not working as expected. I was accidently attached to my local DB in the window I tested this. Instead, I want to be in a window attached to my remote DB.
