How to parse a command output in bash

Question

I am executing a command on bash which gives me the following output

bash-4.2$ soapcli.sh maxadmin "my_passw0rd" "http://localhost:8777/ws/pid/TpmLiteSoapService?wsdl" executeDeploymentRequest testCleanup "numeber=1234"
Result: 990823

How to store the Result i.e. is 990823 in a variable. I stored the entire output in a variable using:

res=`soapcli.sh maxadmin "my_password" "http://localhost:8777/ws/pid/TpmLiteSoapService?wsdl" executeDeploymentRequest testCleanup "number=1234" 2>&1

echo $res
Result: 1234

Add awk command through the pipe | awk {print $2} into your command:

bash-4.2$ soapcli.sh maxadmin "my_passw0rd" "http://localhost:8777/ws/pid/TpmLiteSoapService?wsdl" executeDeploymentRequest testCleanup "numeber=1234" | awk '{print $2}'
