HI All

I guess they were extensions downloaded from Branch and guess you could have been using them to set variables.
A few API's were deprecated at version 2.1, see QlikSense Help https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense-developer/3.1/Subsystems/EngineAPI/Content/VersionHistory/version-...
Not least the SetContent method that was replaced by the SetProperties method. Not sure which version they were actually removed at.
Often the extension author will update their extension and place a corrected version on Branch. Sometimes not, as many people only do Branch extensions in their spare time
I think it will work. and its worked me aswell. I never faced this situation.
It will make no difference whether you are using the trial freebie QlikSense Desktop or the paid for QlikSense Server Enterprise.
With some version upgrades the internal workings of QlikSense can change and some API's can be deprecated / removed. This can cause issues with some extensions and they will need mending.
I am surprised you say each time you upgrade all your extensions stop working. From my experience only a small percentage of extensions for a small percentage of version upgrades have issues on QlikSense version upgrades.
Hi Bill
Thank you very much for your sharing.
I only try variable and button , both I encounter issue . It does not work after I upgrade to new issue .
So now I have better understanding , the future version changed will not affect extension . That is great news.

Hi Bill
Can you share with me if extension with SET will be affected , so if using YTD flag will not be affected ?

To be honest I am working from memory of some things that affected me quite some months ago and can't remember all the details.
For all extensions we use whether In House or Branch I like to make sure that internally we understand how the script of the extension works. So that if issues do arise for any reason, including those caused by version upgrades, we can sort them internally.
