Get Table Row Count Using Server-Side Filters 

-- Count ALL records in the Incident table
-- Uses server-side counting (no data rows are downloaded)
SELECT count
FROM get_table_row_count
WITH(
	TableName='incident'
)

-- Count only HIGH PRIORITY incidents (priority = 1)
-- The Query parameter applies an encoded ServiceNow filter before counting
SELECT count
FROM get_table_row_count
WITH(
	TableName='incident',
	Query='priority=1'
)

SQL Server

Get Table Row Count Using Server-Side Filters 

DECLARE @MyQuery NVARCHAR(MAX) = '-- Count ALL records in the Incident table
-- Uses server-side counting (no data rows are downloaded)
SELECT count
FROM get_table_row_count
WITH(
	TableName=''incident''
)

-- Count only HIGH PRIORITY incidents (priority = 1)
-- The Query parameter applies an encoded ServiceNow filter before counting
SELECT count
FROM get_table_row_count
WITH(
	TableName=''incident'',
	Query=''priority=1''
)';

EXEC (@MyQuery) AT [LS_TO_SERVICENOW_IN_GATEWAY];
