Qlik DataTransfer - Can the task be triggered externally?

dosanko — Fri, 03 Sep 2021 01:04:40 GMT

Have anyone by chance found a way to trigger a task on Qlik DataTransfer externally like Qlik-Cli for Qlik Sense?

There are customers who are interested to migrate their Qlik Sense on-premise to SaaS but but not enthusiastic enough to use products like Qlik Replicate.

While there are demand to control a task trigger when the data mart is ready to be uploaded,

scheduled reload isn't good enough ‌‌

I found this posting without an active discussion... I hope someone figured out a way to manage it

Hi, if I undertand it right you are asking to upload an app to saas when it has finished to reload on-premise.

To do this you don't need DataTransfer, directly from on-premise you can set an app to be published on SaaS.

You will need a license checked as elastic, you an see in the license lef in somewhere it says ELASTIC: YES, I don't remember how to check for signed keys of if those are always elastic

Thank you for replying 🙂

We are trying to promote the customer to move from on-premise to SaaS and so having a multi-cloud license will not be a choice in our case.
