ReloadTime()

gladi-cz — Wed, 23 Dec 2015 13:04:51 GMT

Hello there,

I would like to add to my app information about reload time.

I used function ReloadTime( ) ,but this function doesnt work with reload task on Qlik sense server. ReloadTime() works only with manual reload in data load editor, doesn't it?

Is there any alternative function?

Thanks for reply.

BR,

Petr

The Qlik Sense help file says that it does work:

ReloadTime

This function returns a timestamp for when the last data load finished. It can be used in both the data load script and in a chart expression.

ReloadTime( )

Are you sure the document was reloaded correctly on the Qlik Sense Server?

Hello Laurent,

i found one solutions. You have to use this function in app mode, not in the script. It works fine now.

You can try Now(0); function.

I think time in QMC is UTC Time and Application Time is your Local Time Subtract GMT value from QMC Time and see if time is same or not.

How you make this function on script ?

my reloadtime() always an hour early or late.

Check the server time. ReloadTime() will return the timestamp of the last successful app reload in the server time zone.

Use this to convert to your local time

ConvertToLocalTime(ReloadTime(), 'Place/TimeZone')

Let me know if this works for you.

You can create a variable in the script, like

Let vReloadTime = Now();

Which, by default, returns the System Clock timestamp at the time the script executes the function (above).

You can then use the variable in your app.

Now with this expression it is about 1 hour ahead of the real load.

Without this expression, using just the normal one, it extends 1 hour later.

Does it get these times from my local server?

I'm from Brazil and they forwarded this documentation to me:

It worked perfectly !

Thank you friend, but I don't think it's normal for these reference problems to occur.
