    my $qualys_request = QualysGuard::Request->new( 'map_report_list' );

    # - provide map_report_list function arguments

    $qualys_request->attributes({
        'last'    => 'yes',
        'domain'  => 'example.com', 
    });

    # - qualys_response is a QualysGuard::Response::MapReportList object

    my $qualys_response = $qualys_request->submit();

    if ( $qualys_response->is_error() ) {
        die $qualys_response->get_error(); 
    }

    # - QualysGuard::Response is a subclass of XML::XPath which allows
    # - XML::XPath functionality in each of the QualysGuard::Response subclasses.
    # - In short you can extract data using the XML::XPath interface.

    my @map_refs = $qualys_response->findnodes('/SOME/XPATH/');
