Transactionnal API - Direct Query with JSON Line / Parsing ?!?

Nico

Hello,

I am looking currently at the Transactionnal API.

I see great usage associated to Transactionnal API reading function for direct reporting through third party tool (ex : POWERBI), which offer more thank BULK API.

This call help you to direct query a view :

Currently, the documentation show a limitation of cells able to be read :

This call only supports the retrieval of cells from a view that contains a maximum of 1,000,000 cells. If the specified view contains more than 1,000,000 cells, then the call returns a 400 Bad Request HTTP status, instead of a subset of the cells. Use the quick sum bar in Anaplan to identify the number of cells in a view.

Nevertheless, I saw in the return, the page aspect. That is associated to parsing/ Json Line perspective

Is there any perspective that we see anytime soon, the parsing on those kind of request ? (@christophe_keom 👀)

Large read query method on the transactional api endpoint was released a few months ago.

It allows to launch a query on views containing more than 1m cells with multiple pages results.

The api call includes a page number parameter to return the results of the corresponding page.

You will find documentation on the apiary anaplan api

I have used the long request query method.
Nevertheless It is still asynchrone as you need to launch a request and then get a task affected and the response is “Plain Text”

Could we see the page functionnality on the view request in order to have a synchronized & JSON (JSON Line) response ?
