Qlik Visual component issue

[_jespers_]

Hi,

I'm having an issue with the <qlik-visual> component when trying to set the app id in the controller.

The example below works fine

Template file:

<div qv-extension style="height: 100%; position: relative; overflow: auto;" class="ng-scope">
    <qlik-visual appid="af5e0cc8-8426-423b-acad-02dad7c04d13" visid='hNLUPu'></qlik-visual>
</div>

And the following chart is being rendered:

But when I instead try to set the appid property with a $scope variable I get an issue.

.js file:

define( ["qlik", "text!./template.html"],
    function ( qlik, template ) {

        return {
            template: template,
            support: {
                snapshot: true,
                export: true,
                exportData: false
            },
            paint: function () {
                return qlik.Promise.resolve();
            },
            controller: ['$scope', function ( $scope ) {
                $scope.appid = "af5e0cc8-8426-423b-acad-02dad7c04d13";
            }]
        };

    } );

Template file:

<div qv-extension style="height: 100%; position: relative; overflow: auto;" class="ng-scope">
    <qlik-visual appid="{{appid}}" visid='hNLUPu'></qlik-visual>
</div>

The chart itself is actually being rendered but there is an error message on top saying the the app id cannot be found

What can be the reason for this and is there anything I can do to fix this?

Regards

Hi jesper.snihs‌‌,

I think in your case, the issue is how angular apply's the scope, the first time {{appid}} is empty, the second time, it gets it from the scope and missing appid is poorly handled in `<qik-visual/>` (something we should fix!)

Try set the attribute lin the controller instead

define( ["qlik", "text!./template.html"],  
    function ( qlik, template ) {  

        return {  
            template: template,  
            support: {  
                snapshot: true,  
                export: true,  
                exportData: false  
            },  
            paint: function () {  
                return qlik.Promise.resolve();  
            },  
            controller: ['$scope', '$element', function ( $scope, $element ) {
               $element.find("qlik-visual").attr("appid","af5e0cc8-8426-423b-acad-02dad7c04d13");
            }]  
        };  

    } ); 

I hope this helps,
