How to setproperties of a master dimension (engine API, qsocks)

Hi,

I want to use qsocks to update an existing master dimension. I'm unable to make the change. Can you please let me know what is wrong here?

These are the steps I followed:

1. Launch QS Desktop

2. Create a new app called 'QlikCommunityTest.qvf'

3. Use ctrl+00 to load the demo script

4. Create a new master dimension with the field 'Dim1' and id as ' mydimid1' using the "dimension.js" in the qsocks examples folder.

5. Now, I'd like to update this master dimension to read from 'Dim3'. To achieve this I run this HTML in the browser

<html>

<head>

const applicationName = 'QlikCommunityTest.qvf';

const var_dimid = 'mydimid1';

qsocks.Connect().then(function(global) {

global.openDoc(applicationName).then(function(app) {

app.getDimension(var_dimid).then(function(dim1) {

dim1.setProperties({

qInfo: {

qId: 'mydimid1',

qType: 'dimension'

qDim: {

qGrouping: 'N',

qFieldDefs: 'Dim3',

qFieldLabels: 'DimMastertempnew',

title: 'mydimid1'

qMetaDef: {

title: 'mydimid1'

}

})

</script>

</head>

</html>

I do not see any change to my master dimension.
