Execute a process
The resource POST /processes/request serves as the main way to execute the Extraction Process. It supports the following input parameters:
Parameter name | Description | Usage | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
processID | Filtering based on the process ID | Mandatory | String |
loadType | Delta type of the load, default value is “F” (Full load) | Optional | “F“ | ”D” | ”I” | ”L” |
truncate | Option to truncate the table before the data load, the default value is “” (Don’t truncate) | Optional | “X“ | ““ |
packageSize | Option to set the number of rows for each package, the default value is 10.000 | Optional | Int |
previewMode | Option to view data from a source before Extraction Process. It is important to specify the package size parameter, max value is 1000; default is 20 | Optional |
|
variant | The existing variant name for the extractor process report. | Optional |
|
filter | If the Fetcher has been configured to accept filter specifications, they can be specified using this parameter | Optional | JSON object |
All input parameters are case insensitive.
Example of REST API call:
JSON body:
{
"processid": "z99_sflight_p",
"loadType": "F",
"filter": [
{
"fieldname": "CARRID",
"selopt": [
{
"sign": "I",
"option": "EQ",
"low": "AA",
"high": ""
},
{
"sign": "I",
"option": "EQ",
"low": "578",
"high": ""
}
]
},
{
"fieldname": "CONNID",
"selopt": [
{
"sign": "I",
"option": "EQ",
"low": "17",
"high": ""
}
]
}
]
}Example of the REST API output:
{
“requestId”: 281309
}Filter parameters
It is possible to specify table filters. To reflect the ABAP filter design, the filter object needs to have the structure
"filter": [
{
"fieldname": "CARRID",
"selopt": [
{
"sign": "I",
"option": "EQ",
"low": "AA",
"high": ""
}]
}]fieldname: the name of the SAP table field used for the filtering operation
seleopt: object that defines the ranges and filters
sign: “I“ for include and “E“ for exclude
option: can be a whole range, which includes:
“EQ” (Equal)
“BT” (Between))
“CP” (Contain Pattern)
low: contains the first value, in the case or EQ sign is the field that is used
high: used together with low when specifying ranges
It is possible to use the sign * when looking for patterns in strings. E.g. “AB*“ will look for all the values in a field starting with AB
Preview mode
This API can be executed in preview mode,
Example of REST API parameters in preview mode:
JSON body:
Load type
When a process is configured for delta replication, the execution can be run in different modalities:
“F” Full Load (Repair) Without Delta Update
“D” Delta Load
“I” Delta Init Without Data
“L” Delta Init + Full Load
Truncate values
Only valid for structured storages (tables and transparent binary)
“X” Truncate the target table
““ No truncate
Functionality is implemented in the SAP class /DVD/GL_EXT2_API_SCHEDULE.
List and monitor available requests for a process
Resource GET /processes/requests serve as the main way to list all available Requests that have been executed. It supports the following input parameters:
Parameter name | Description | Usage | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
from | The lowest value of the START_TIME, represented as a timestamp | Optional | Format -YYYYMMDDHHMMSS |
to | The highest value of the START_TIME, represented as a timestamp | Optional | Format - YYYYMMDDHHMMSS |
requestId | Specific number of the request | Optional | String |
processId | Filtering based on the Extraction process ID | Optional | String |
All input parameters are case insensitive.
