Fetch master lib meta data

xyz_1011 — Wed, 26 Mar 2025 12:10:23 GMT

Hi all,

i am trying to list the following meta data of master lib items of a given app:

Item Type (Dim or Measure)
Item Name
Item Description
Field or Expression

Ideally I get the output in a table structure (with - as a note to have - increasing number for every row in the table).

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

With Qlik CLI you can see master item information but not Expressions. For that try older QSDA:

@xyz_1011 That old Doc Analyzer is deprecated and does not work with Qlik Cloud. The new QSDA Pro does work with Qlik Cloud, on-prem and Desktop.

@xyz_1011 You can download QSDA Pro and try for free with limited feature. Specifically, the unlicensed version is limited to analyzing Apps with fewer than 100 visualization objects.

You can arrange a full featured trial by reaching out here Motio - Demo Request .
