Reserved words for file name
By default the file name is built from a prefix and the table name or join name. The extension depends on the file format selected in the Data Request. Standard extensions are “.CSV” for columns with delimiters, “.TXT” for fixed length, “.SAP” for the SAP® AIS Format. The “.LOG”, “.REQ” and “.XML” extensions are used for additionally generated files.
If supported by the storage location, the file name can be generated dynamically using placeholders.
