Redirecting connections count into variable/file

RouterOS Scripting
1

Hi!

I have a question, I’m writing a script to get some mearurement data from the router. One of the should be the connections count, printed with
/ip firewall connection print count-only.

Now, does somebody have an idea how to redirect this print-out into a file or set it as a variable, I’ve tried everything from :log, to /ip firewall connection print file=xxxx count-only, and nothing worked.

Please help.

Best regards
