ImportApp is missing in Qlik Sense .Net SDK

I'm trying to use the Qlik Sense .NET SDK to perform the auto import.

However, I found that it have create app, export app, delete app, publish app, but no method to import existing app.

It seems it support "ImportApp" in version 2.1 (https://help.qlik.com/en-us/sense/2.1/apis/net%20sdk/html/M_Qlik_Engine_Hub_ImportApp.htm), but it missing in current build.

Does it have any replaced method to import app?

App management is typically performed through the repository service (QRS). You should check out these endpoints to import apps:

https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense-developer/April2018/Subsystems/RepositoryServiceAPI/Content/RepositoryServiceAPI/RepositoryServiceAPI-App-Upload-App.htm

An example of how to use the "Upload app" endpoint through C# can be found here:

Call to endpoint is performed here:

Thanks for your source code, it is great work.

And I just give up to using .NET SDK.

You're welcome. The engine API (which is what the .Net SDK deals with) is useful when you want to do stuff with the contents of apps. That would include operations such as adding sheets, modifying visualizations or evaluating expressions.
