Hi,
i am quite new to the tool and forum and was trying to find some information.
Basically we are building a few dashboards on QV and the users have now requested that the information be sent via Email. The requirement is for a Batch program to generate a email at a predfined time everyday and mail it to the users. The Email should be a rich text mail showing the graphs and associated Data (although no drill down/filtering will be possible ).
We are having some Java expertise in the team and hence wanted to build this feature as a standalone Java Program that can be invoked via say a unix Cron job.
On looking at the QV APIs available to access the charts and Data i see that there is a Java script API made available by QV.
However i am not clear on how this JS API can be used in the above mentioned Java Program? (As i assume that the JS Engines required for the API to work are only browser based?)
Any ideas on how i could proceed on this ?
does anyone else have experience on a similar functionality in their projects ?
Thx
Abraham
Thx for the quick reply,
However the thread you mentioned talks about using JavaScript API to display charts in the browser of a Java Web Application.
My issue was that in this case there is no Browser element as it is say a Standalone Java Program trying to access the QV chart Data.
"AFAIK the java API can only be used in server context. ...Java api is not available anymore since version 10. Integration into web application may be easier in javascript using QV extensions."
Hi,
Why not use QlikView Publisher? We already have this features (PDF reports, emails) built into the product.
