epmautomate extractDimension APPLICATION DIMENSION EXTRACT_PROFILE FILE_NAME [connection=NAME] where:

  • APPLICATION is the name of an Oracle Enterprise Data Management Cloud application.
  • DIMENSION is the name of the dimension to be extracted.
  • EXTRACT_PROFILE is the name of an extract profile defined in the application. This profile is used to extract the dimension.
  • FILE_NAME is the name of a file (CSV for export to a file or ZIP for export to Oracle Financials Cloud) for storing the extracted data. If the connection parameter value is not set, this file is created in the staging area. You can download it to a local computer using the downloadFile command or copy it to another Oracle Enterprise Data Management Cloud environment using the copyFileFromInstance command.
  • connection=NAME optionally, identifies a global connection name (instance location) defined in Oracle Enterprise Data Management Cloud as the location of the file. If specified, the extract file is uploaded to the target environment (inbox for Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud and the specified document account for Oracle ERP).

    Note:

    The credentials specified in the global connection must have access rights to write to the target environment.
