Copy QVF in a SFTP

Louveduval — Mon, 27 Jan 2025 10:53:52 GMT

Hello,

I would like to know if it is possible to create an automation to copy the daily .qvf apps to an SFTP server or another storage solution, in order to use them later on Qlik Desktop in case of an internet shutdown?

Best regards

Hi @Louveduval

There is a Export App block as well as a SFTP block.

The export App block

Exports a specific app to QCS Temporary Content Service. Returns the id of the generated app file on the Temporary Content Service.

It seems like you will need to use the copy file (Sftp) block to copy the file from the above location to the SFTP.

Regards Jandre

Oh ok , I thought that copying files was only meant for Excel files or lists 😮
