Indeed, it is SQL. This is what I have been using:
SELECT
t.NAME AS TableName,
s.Name AS SchemaName,
p.rows AS RowCounts,
SUM(a.total_pages) * 8 / 1024 AS TotalSpaceMB,
SUM(a.used_pages) * 8 / 1024 AS UsedSpaceMB,
(SUM(a.total_pages) - SUM(a.used_pages)) * 8 / 1024 AS UnusedSpaceMB
FROM
sys.tables t
INNER JOIN
sys.indexes i ON t.OBJECT_ID = i.object_id
INNER JOIN
sys.partitions p ON i.object_id = p.OBJECT_ID AND i.index_id = p.index_id
INNER JOIN
sys.allocation_units a ON p.partition_id = a.container_id
LEFT OUTER JOIN
sys.schemas s ON t.schema_id = s.schema_id
WHERE
t.NAME NOT LIKE 'dt%'
AND t.is_ms_shipped = 0
AND i.OBJECT_ID > 255
GROUP BY
t.Name, s.Name, p.Rows
ORDER BY
t.UsedSpaceMB DESC
This will give an overview of all tables in the database and their related number or records and total size.
You can not do this with OQL, use SQL instead. https://docs.mendix.com/howto/extensibility/howto-datastorage-api
