Issue with Add a field on the fly in Qlik Engine JSON API

manuelslv — Tue, 22 Aug 2023 13:23:58 GMT

I'm following this simple three steps example from Qlik help about Add a field on the fly in Qlik Engine JSON API

I'm not sure is there is a bug in the system, in the steps or if I didn't understood something properly:

Step 1: I create a field using AddFieldFromExpression and seems to be ok:

Step 2: Create a session list object pointing this new field

Step 3: GetListObject data pointing to previous handle (2)

Original field called test is properly filled and has values.

Which is also weird for me (don't know if related), is if I get field description for the new inserted field is the value and not the given name:

I'm using QS Enterprise Nov 2022

Thanks in advance

Hi,
instead of Step 3: GetListObject data pointing to previous handle (2) try using getlayout()
