Sampled — shipped under file-level sampling, not individually fact-checkedcommunity attestations: 0✓ / 0✗
Steps
Identify or build the BAQ in Kinetic first, since the REST call executes an existing BAQ by name rather than defining one
Call the REST endpoint using the Baq (or BaqSvc) namespace with the schema (commonly "Erp") and the BAQ's name as the service
Use the Data method to retrieve rows, or GetNew where the BAQ pattern requires it
Apply OData query parameters ($filter, $top, $skip) against the BAQ result the same way as any other OData v4 collection
Page through large result sets using $skip/$top rather than pulling the entire BAQ output in one call
Known gotchas
BAQs designed only for UI/SSRS report submission (via BAQReportSvc) behave differently from ad-hoc BaqSvc queries — mixing the two patterns up is a common source of "root element is missing" style errors
BAQ REST results inherit whatever row-level security and criteria defaults were configured in the BAQ designer, so a query that looks fine in the designer can still return filtered or truncated rows over REST
