Make Binary reload as conditional

Narges — Fri, 15 Nov 2024 20:54:50 GMT

Hi everyone,

I have a child app that has binary reload as binary [lib://Qlik_Apps/Parent App ID];
I would like to make this conditional and say if my environment is XXX then Parent app ID to be x if the environment is YYY then Parent app ID to be y.

is that possible?

if env='XXX' then binary [lib://Qlik_Apps/xxxxxxxxxxxx];

if env='YYY' then binary [lib://Qlik_Apps/yyyyyyyyyyyy];

[Edit] - As pointed out below, this won't work because Binary must be the first statement. Oops.

Sounds like a standard IF situation.

If Env = 'XXX' THEN

Do something

else if Env = 'YYY' THEN

Do Something Else

End If

If you're asking how to tell which environment you're in, see e.g.

I don't think that is possible. Binary must be the very first statement in your Load Script.
