Importing/Publishing application without overwritting sheets

Wed, 08 Jun 2016 10:26:25 GMT

Hello,

We are curently developing a set of application that we will deploy at our customers.

We are facing a problem with the updates :

- Our customers can add sheets in the deployed application

- We need to deliver updates without overwriting the application created by our customers

- Currently, when importing or publishing a new version, it replaces the whole application

Is there a way to do this in QlikSense ?

Thanks and regards,

Olivier.

Are you sure ? when we publish a new version the users sheets and the community sheets don't get removed.

Hello,

Thanks for your answer. I actually wanted our customer to be abble to create sheets on a non-published application (after dupplicating), republish over our application and keep their custom sheets when we deliver a new one.

Doing it this way, they have acces to the fields in the left panel, which is not possible when editing a sheet in a published app (only the MasterItems are visible). However, I found out that you can access all the fields when creating a graph or a formula, so this is not really an issue anymore.

Though it would be nice to be abble to acces the whole field list in the left panel on a published app, we can live with it for now.
