API to get data connections related metadata for an app

schatterjee — Fri, 08 Oct 2021 12:59:43 GMT

Hi,

I am trying to find an API which can give the tables and data source connections related metadata used in an app. Is there any QRS endpoint or any other endpoint for it?

Thanks

There is a GetLineage method in the engine API

and a new Engine REST API endpoint (which I haven't tried)

Thanks

However I tried using the GetLineage method in the engine API, but is says

"{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":6,"error":{"code":5,"parameter":"Access denied to lineage data","message":"Access denied"}}"

Any idea why this is coming?

FYI I am using Qliksense Enterprise and using using JWT token to authorize to Qlik Engine API

I see this message occasionally. I assume it has to do with security rules, but I have not investigated.

I am able to extract metadata of data model but not for objects and data sources
