RETRIEVE command
Retrieves the result of a Direct Link query submitted for background processing.

The RETRIEVE command is only supported if Direct Link is installed and configured on your local computer and on your organization's SAP system.
Syntax
RETRIEVE table_name PASSWORD num
Parameters
Name | Description |
---|---|
table_name |
The name of the table originally created in Analytics by the Direct Link query. The table must already exist before you use RETRIEVE. |
PASSWORD num |
The password definition to use. You do not use PASSWORD num to prompt for, or specify, an actual password. The password definition refers to a password previously supplied or set using the PASSWORD command, the SET PASSWORD command, or the PASSWORD analytic tag. num is the number of the password definition. For example, if two passwords have been previously supplied or set in a script, or when scheduling an analytic script, PASSWORD 2 specifies that password #2 is used. For more information about supplying or setting passwords, see: Note The password is used to access the SAP system. |
Examples
Retrieving the Background mode query result
You set the password and then retrieve the Background mode query result for an Analytics table named DD02T_Data:
SET PASSWORD 1 TO "pwd"
RETRIEVE DD02T_Data PASSWORD 1
