Can I open multiple session apps at the same time?

Anonymous — Fri, 26 Jan 2018 16:55:09 GMT

I hope someone can help me with a question about session apps.

I followed the Qlik session app tutorial and built 3 mashups that each create a session app, load some different data and create visualizations. All 3 mashups connect to the same Qlik Sense server. They work great individually. However if I try to run 2 at the same time the first mashup works fine but the second screen is blank and has an error in Dev Tools: code 1002 "App already open". Is it possible to have multiple session apps open at the same time? If so, how do I avoid this error?

Thanks.

Hi valeriepetrie‌,

I would guess that you are trying to open session apps with `sessionAppFromApp`, if so, in this case, opening the `app template` is the issue, since you are reusing the same app for all the `sessionAppFromApp`'s.

A possible workaround will be to use a copy of the `app template` for each sessionAppFromApp

I hope this helps

I am using the qlik.sessionApp(config) method. After further consideration I believe this may be due to our server's Qlik Sense version. It will be upgraded shortly and I will retry. Thanks for your quick responses.
