We have an app that runs in Qlik Sense to trigger NPrinting task, which is chained to a main app, meaning once the main app runs finish, this NPrinting trigger API task will then run to trigger the NPrinting tasks. We have been experiencing frequent failures of the NPrinting Trigger Tasks recently. This works well most of the time but once it fails, the NPrinting task has to be recreated.  

-Retrieved 0 rows when retrieving task_name from NPrinting tasks

Recreating the task in NPrinting resolved the problem. However, the same issue has continued to occur intermittently on other tasks, and this workaround is not a sustainable solution for us.

Seeking advise from API experts. 

Best Regards,

Hi. 

We were given a mockup of an app for CSO and CEO-level users.  It needs to be direct and simple, and not look like a spreadsheet.  Hence the "button" look as proposed.   Maybe not possible, but perhaps we can get close or similar.

The catch here is that there are many KPI's on the sheet, and our first attempt takes 30+ seconds to load.
Beyond that, I'm not sure we can format the sheet close to the way they requested.  The key element here is that we want KPI $ and KPI % on the same block/button.  Qlik KPI is close, but it makes the second KPI look like superscript.  (See images)

Take a look at the attached images and give me your ideas, if you have any.  In the images, you can see the mockup, and where we currently are.  I am not a Qlik pro, but we have some (limited) access to one.

Any suggestions are appreciated!
Thanks
Rob

Mockup (goal):

Qlik:

Hi all,

I’m trying to automate the creation of “generic links” inside a Qlik Cloud space.

Use case:

• I have an on-prem Qlik Sense app

• At the end of the reload script, I trigger a REST call

• This call invokes a Qlik Automate automation (webhook trigger)

• The payload contains:

  • link name

  • link URL

  • target space

Goal:
Automatically create a link in a Qlik Cloud space pointing to external resources (e.g. dashboards, apps, tools).

What I found so far:

• Automations can be triggered via webhook ✔️

• But I couldn’t find any API or block to create “links” in a space ❌

Questions:

1. Is there any supported API to create these links programmatically?

2. Is this feature planned or intentionally UI-only?

3. Are there recommended alternatives for this use case?

Thanks!

Hola,

Tengo una app en Qlik Sense Saas que tiene que cargar distinta información en función del espacio en que se encuentre. No quiero crear distintas apps (una por espacio) ya que el mantenimiento sería más costoso. 

¿Existe alguna manera (con automatizaciones o similar) para con una única app poder cargar información distinta dependiendo del espacio en que se encuentre? Se me ocurre con una variable o que pueda leer de un fichero de configuración en el espacio actual, pero no consigo hacerlo.

Gracias

I want to check if we can sync AZURE AD groups into Qlik sense and using those groups can we implement section access? Has anyone implemented section access using this way?

Hi Team,

We are encountering an issue while replicating data from DB2 z/OS to the target using Qlik Replicate.

In the source DB2 z/OS table, a column with data type CHAR(2) contains blank values (spaces) for several records. However, in the target system, we are observing inconsistent behavior:

• Most records are correctly replicated as blanks
• But for a few records, the same field is populated with unexpected special characters like "NANA"

So, not all blank fields are impacted—only a subset of records shows this issue.

Thanks in Advance
