Managing Qlik Sense with Python

liuis — Mon, 02 Sep 2024 21:36:43 GMT

Hey everyone!

I've been working on a Python package for automating routine tasks in Qlik Sense such as maintaining master items, exporting, copying from one app to another, updating etc.

You can use it to

export master items and variables
export charts and tables metadata (i.e. used dimension and measures)
export charts and tables data (to csv, excel)
move master items between apps in bulk
copy charts and whole sheets to another app
edit master and object items in bulk (for instance, to change a variable name)

You can find the project here: https://pypi.org/project/qsea/

I'm curious to know if anyone finds it interesting or useful. I'd really appreciate any thoughts, ideas, or suggestions for improvements you might have.

Hi @liuis , great work! I am also on a client which interacts with the engine API.

Hi, @vasilev, looks cool!

Does the get_constructed_table_data function retrieve the measure values without creating any visualizations in the app?

Correct.
