Something like this:</P> <LI-CODE lang="javascript">const variableList = { qInfo: { qType: "VariableList", }, qVariableListDef: { qType: "variable", }, }; // create session object const sessionObj = await doc.createSessionObject(variableList); // get the layout of the session object const layout = await sessionObj.getLayout(); // layout.qVariableList.qItems -&gt; all variables definitions // you can dispose of the session object if you want // await doc.destroySessionObject(sessionObj.id);</LI-CODE> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="stefanstoichev123_0-1655382376945.png" style="width: 400px;"><img src="https://community.qlik.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/81932i4B3E565A44C53C7C/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="stefanstoichev123_0-1655382376945.png" alt="stefanstoichev123_0-1655382376945.png" /></span></P> <P>Stefan</P> Thu, 16 Jun 2022 12:29:17 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/Integration-Extension-APIs/How-to-extract-variable-list-from-a-Qlik-Sense-App-Is-there-any/m-p/1944557#M16945 stefanstoichev123 2022-06-16T12:29:17Z https://community.qlik.com/t5/Integration-Extension-APIs/How-to-extract-variable-list-from-a-Qlik-Sense-App-Is-there-any/m-p/1944566#M16946 <P>Hi,</P> <P>You can use the Variable API.</P> <P><A href="https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense-developer/May2021/Subsystems/APIs/Content/Sense_ClientAPIs/CapabilityAPIs/qlik-variable-interface.htm" target="_blank">https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense-developer/May2021/Subsystems/APIs/Content/Sense_ClientAPIs/CapabilityAPIs/qlik-variable-interface.htm</A></P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>Bill</P> Thu, 16 Jun 2022 12:39:34 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/Integration-Extension-APIs/How-to-extract-variable-list-from-a-Qlik-Sense-App-Is-there-any/m-p/1944566#M16946 Bill_Britt 2022-06-16T12:39:34Z https://community.qlik.com/t5/Integration-Extension-APIs/How-to-extract-variable-list-from-a-Qlik-Sense-App-Is-there-any/m-p/2527434#M22440 <P>You can try <STRONG>Qollect</STRONG>&nbsp;- my free Qlik Sense extension that pulls app metadata (Measures, Dimensions, Fields, Charts, Variables, Sheets) and exports it to Excel.<BR />Link: <A href="https://www.regarden.io/extensions/3170c06d-0cbb-462f-a3e6-5303f9763249" target="_new" rel="noopener">https://www.regarden.io/extensions/3170c06d-0cbb-462f-a3e6-5303f9763249</A></P> Fri, 15 Aug 2025 14:08:38 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/Integration-Extension-APIs/How-to-extract-variable-list-from-a-Qlik-Sense-App-Is-there-any/m-p/2527434#M22440 EliGohar 2025-08-15T14:08:38Z
