Load Data from a Script Variable in Qliksense

Hi

Im trying to load data from a variable in qlikview which is working fine but same code is not working in qliksense.

We load some data from a url which we store in a variable but same variable is not working in qliksense script. It gives me an error

The following error occurred:

LOAD statement only works with lib:// paths in this script mode...

Here is the sample code which i am trying to load.

LIB CONNECT TO 'GWMMISDEV (naeast_d281410)';

//Gets user list from the link

USER_LIST:

SQL

SELECT mis_app,

    xml_urls as url

FROM Schema.table_dim a

Where a.col1 ='ABC';

LET vUser = if(isNull(peek('url',0,'USER_LIST')),1,peek('url',0,'USER_LIST')) ; 

FNCTNL_ENTTL:

LOAD

     @13:19 as 'StandardId',

    'ABCDEr' as 'Function_Entl'  // Key to parent table: WmUisEntitled

FROM $(vUser)

(fix, codepage is 1252);

WHERE @1:12 = '<StandardId>';

Exit Script;

Loading data from v(user) is not happening in qliksense.

Above code work perfectly fine in qlikvew but not in qliksense.. do we have the workaround for this

Hi madhur, the standar mode of qlik sense needs that you create a connection, that connection is a root starting with 'lib://ConnectionName'.

You can try adding the path to the connection.

There is also a hard way of avoid this behaviour: https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense/3.1/Subsystems/Hub/Content/LoadData/disable-standard-mode.htm

Hi Ruben,

Thanks for the prompt reply. really appreciate your help in this.

I can ask my qliksense admin to look out for disabling the standard mode which i guess would be tough option to achieve.

Actually my logic requires to store weblink in a variable which i want to invoke in another Load script to load couple of columns in that web link through webservice syntax.

Only issue which i am facing it my $(vUser) variable is fitting into qliksense syntax where it says u can load data only from path lib://

now not sure how to store variable in that lib path or by pass that lib path with some coding.
