What are the supported or allowed ways to extract or receive real-time data from Sierra Chart for external analysis or execution purposes?

This cannot be done. You are not allowed to access the real-time data due to exchange restrictions.

That being said, there are ways to get data out of Sierra Chart, but it will not be in real-time.

You can access the .scid files directly. Refer to the following:
Intraday Data File Format

And there is already a study that will write out the data to a file. Refer to the following:
Write Bar Data to File

And you can export the data at any time. Refer to the following:
Edit Menu: Edit >> Export Intraday Data to Text file

And you can write out the data directly yourself through your own custom study:
ACSIL Interface Members - Functions: sc.WriteFile()
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:
