Connecting to Qlik Cloud

VC1258 — Wed, 19 Mar 2025 23:04:08 GMT

How can I connect from Postman to Qlik Cloud (not Qlik on Windows). I have the URL and document ID, an API Key, but I am not sure about what else I would need to get the data. I am using Postman to test.

I have seen a couple of articles but they all talk about Qlik on Windows.

Thanks @Albert_Candelario

it is useful information, however, it is only giving back metadata and not data. I tried "data files". I understand that Qlik is not a database where you can select from but I was wondering if there was a way of getting actual data back using postman.

Hello @VC1258 ,

What data are you after? Could you kindly provide more context and potentially some examples?

Cheers,

Albert
