Query QMS Active Users

[#1]

Hello,

I need to implement dashboard workability monitoring. For example user 'dashboard' connected to QlikView 11.2 server document and session should be alive. I can check it through QMC > Status > QVS Statistics > Active Users. Due to network connectivity issue the dashboard could become frozen. I need to get alert notification to fix it.

I'm checking the following approaches

1. SNMP request

I've read C:\Program Files\QlikView\Support Tools\qliktech.mib and found only

    .qlikviewserver.qVSNumberOfUsers

without required details

2. QlikView Management API - Getting Started and E... | Qlik Community ‌‌

I can't find the active users listing also

3. Logs in C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\QlikViewServer\

I can see the Sessions, Audit logs. But there is no information about session expiration to trace alive.

Please,

Maybe somebody can advise?

Thank you in advance

Okay. I've implemented C# module to query QMS

   IQMS apiClient = new QMSClient();
   ServiceKeyClientMessageInspector.ServiceKey = apiClient.GetTimeLimitedServiceKey();
   List<ServiceInfo> orderedServices = apiClient.GetServices(ServiceTypes.QlikViewServer).ToList();
   Guid qvsId = orderedServices[0].ID;
   Dictionary<string, int> docsPerUser = apiClient.GetQVSDocumentsPerUser(qvsId, QueryTarget.Resource);
   foreach (string name in docsPerUser.Keys)
   {
      if (name == args[0]) // looking for user from command line param
      {
            // return number of documents open
            Console.WriteLine(docsPerUser[name]);
            return docsPerUser[name];
      }
   }
   return 0; // Not found! 😞

The metric has been submitted for monitoring and multiple disconnections counted every day.

Actually browser Ajax session is always alive and refreshed every 30 mins by browser plugin.

What happens to the session?
