Table Selection in a Task

vinayak_m — Fri, 14 Jun 2024 13:45:00 GMT

Hi Team,

If I have a task with 30 tables which are selected, is there any way to mark them inactive or deselect them without creating a new task or modifying my current task(to delete the non essential tables).

As far as I have searched, I was not able to find out anything. Is there a workaround for such situations?

Thanks in advance!

Hello @vinayak_m ,

Thanks for reaching out to Qlik Community!

No option to mark some tables inactive or deselected in a running task. We need to edit the task:

Stop the running task.
Edit the task to remove some tables.
- Save the changes.
- Resume the task. (These tables will be excluded from the replication queue.)
Edit the task to add these tables back or add more tables.
- Save the changes.
- Resume the task. (These tables will be added to the replication queue. Qlik Replicate will perform a Full Load on these tables first. After the Full Load, the CDC stage will start automatically.)

Hope this helps.

John.

If you think you might have to re-enable the tables at a later stage, then you might want to rename the explicitly selected source tables to X_<table> or DISABLED_<table> or some such to retain the fact that it was previously selected. The now non-existing tables will have no negative effect on the task when resumed because Replicate always ignores non-existing source tables.
