Where to put 'qType' in the hypercube definition

Tue, 22 Mar 2016 08:37:33 GMT

When using the code created from the dev-hub, one cannot specify the qType for the measures.

Neither is the qType key (with default U) visible in the created code.

My question is:

Where must I put this qType attribute in the definition?

It must be somewhere here. (but where, with which 'parent' node) ?

{

"qLabel": "Top 1 Preis",

"qLibraryId": "Ljymc",

"qSortBy": {

"qSortByState": 0,

"qSortByFrequency": 0,

"qSortByNumeric": 0,

"qSortByAscii": 1,

"qSortByLoadOrder": 0,

"qSortByExpression": 0,

"qExpression": {

"qv": " "

}

We searched alot but still no clue 😕

It would be 'stupid' if we need to deal with formats in the frontend-code.

Because technically qlik can give us the correct formats.

I got an answer I would like to share in case anyone will end up having the same problem:

This is the right spot for the qType:

"qMeasures":

[ { "qLibraryId": "", "qSortBy": { "qSortByState": 0, "qSortByFrequency": 0, "qSortByNumeric": 0, "qSortByAscii": 0, "qSortByLoadOrder": 1, "qSortByExpression": 0, "qExpression": { "qv": "" } }, "qDef":

{

"qNumFormat":

{ "qType": "I",

"qnDec": 0, "qUseThou": 1,

"qFmt": "###0",

"qDec": "," }

} } ],
