Engine API global.openDoc 'App already open' error

AG-gugelbisolutions — Tue, 01 Nov 2022 13:51:33 GMT

Hi there, I'm pretty new to Qlik Sense development involving APIs. In particolar, I'm using Qlik Engine JSON API, at this stage, to simply open a document for further elaborations. I also played with error handling in order to transform the "App already open" error to a simple string printed to the standard output.

The point is that even changing the app ID to a wrong one, I continue to receive (and catch) the "App already open" error! How is this possible? I'm sure I'm getting something wrong.

Any ideas?

session.open().then((global) => { console.log('Session was opened successfully'); global.openDoc( '3304f560-7653-4515-a8d2-82b62ba533e8' ).catch((error)=>{ if( error.message.includes("App already open") ) { console.log('INFO: the app is already open'); } else { console.log('An error occurred while opening Qlik Sense app:', error); process.exit(1); } }); }).catch((error) => { console.log('An error occurred while opening Qlik Sense Engine session:', error); process.exit(1); });

I think I found the solution, at least to this problem, thanks to this post.

Hope it helps.
