# RXS_getBuffData()

Use this subprocedure to retrieve the data that has buffered in the Template Engine. Note that RXS_VAR should have been specified for the pOutType parameter on the call to [RXS_initTplEng()](https://isupport.katointegrations.com/rxs/2.x/RXS_initTplEng.md) API for this to work. This is most often used in conjunction with [RXS_getUri()](https://isupport.katointegrations.com/rxs/2.x/RXS_getUri.md) and passed for the pReqData parameter.

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `     D RXS_getBuffData...      D                 pr                  like(RXS_XmlData)` | Retrieves the composition engine buffer and stores it in a field, which will then be returned to the calling program. |
| `     D  pFlushBuff                     n   const options(*nopass)` | Determine whether or not to flush the buffer after the template data is returned. This value should most often be *On. |
| `     D  pOffset                      10u 0 const options(*nopass)` | Used to tell the template engine where to start retrieving data in the template engine buffer. Unless necessity dictates it be used do not pass this parameter (note the *NOPASS). Use RXS_getBuffLen() to determine if there is more than 65535 bytes of data currently buffered in the template engine. |
