Hello, I am connecting to etabse and using the combination I chose. I want to write a code that will get "frame forces" data from the "analysis result" section. I wrote a code, it connects to etabse and pulls the combinations correctly, but the frame force data does not appear. Can you help me where is my mistake? Did I share the code and its output?
