Duplicate data files to another space

Jeronimo — Fri, 24 Jan 2025 14:35:27 GMT

Hi there!

I'm trying to create an automation that duplicates all QVD files from one space to another in Qlik. So far, I've only been able to move the QVD files using the Call URL block, following this thread:
How to move QVD from a space to another.

I also read this related thread:
Duplicate DataFiles and move them to another space,
which says this process isn't possible via automation because:

The QCS connector lacks a block to copy datafiles to a space.
The Raw API Request block doesn’t support the DataFiles API.
The Call URL block doesn't support multipart/form-data content type.

However, I noticed the Call URL block error mentions that multipart/form-data is supported. Is it possible to achieve this using automation now?

Additionally, I attempted to use the API in a Python script, following the documentation:
Create DataFiles API

but I got this error:
403 {"errors":[{"title":"Forbidden","code":"HTTP-403"}]}

My Questions:

Is duplicating QVD files between spaces now possible via automation?
What could be causing the 403 Forbidden error in my Python API call?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hello,

I have written an article on how to move files from one space to another: Déplacer des fichiers QVD entre des espaces dans Qlik Cloud à l'aide de... - Communauté Qlik - 2493709

Enjoy your Qlik.
