Macro not running in Qlikview 12.8 Web browser

warrenpress — Mon, 22 Jul 2024 12:27:28 GMT

HI,

I have a button that triggers a macro that exports a chart as a .skv file. The macro runs fine on desktop version and a browser running ie client, but not via the ajax client.

Can someone advise how to get it working via the ajax client.

Thanks in advance

Warren

Hello @warrenpress

On that version the WebView switched to a Edge embedded browser QlikView May 2023 ; not too that not all API documented in QlikView COM API will work the same way in AjaxZFc on server as on the native QlikView Desktop.

When using the Ajax client, you need to use the ServerSideExport call instead of Export.

Thankyou @rwunderlich

I spend many hours trying to find a work around and all it took was 1 single line of code!

I changed chart.Export filePath, ";" to chart.ServerSideExportEx filePath, ";",1 as it works perfect is all browsers.
