Trigger NPrinting after reload QlikView

qlikhalmar — Fri, 18 Aug 2017 09:35:23 GMT

Hi All,

I have a simple question. I want to trigger a NPrinting 17 task after or during I reload QlikView.

I know that it is possible in de June 2017 release. For me it is important that I can do this during the reload in the script.

I hop someone can help me with this.

Thanks in advance!

Halmar

Hi Halmar.

This functionality does not come "out of the box".

What you can do (I think) is to create a dummy QlikView App which will have in its script cmd execute statement which will call one of the APIs. for example using cURL ??

The NPrinting API documentation you can find here:

Hi Lech,

I noticed that one, but i can't figure out how the cURL works.

Can you give me a good start (Base URL) ?

Thanks in advance!

Sorry mate - but i will not be able to help you. In theory i know that you need to use API and call it but how to materialize it unfortunatelly i do not know. I wish i did.

I guess i will learn this once i have some time off and can spare for learning

cheers
