API for checking process status

siliana — Thu, 09 May 2024 12:51:07 GMT

Hello, I am trying to write a program where it will alert me when a program has failed, like in the QMCshows failed. Could you please share the URL API for the endpoint I need to use? Thanks.

Hi @siliana ,

I need more information about your request. What do you mean "when a program has failed"? A Qlik Sense Application reload problem?
Are you talking about Qlik Sense On-prem or Cloud? Or another product?

Hello @marksouzacosta thank you for your attention. I am talking about Qlik Sense Cloud, but the QMC (Qlik Management Console) task manager is on-premises, like on my server. However, it pushes the data to the cloud where the Qlik Sense app is hosted. So, on the QMC, it shows whether it fails or is successful. When it fails, I want an alert, as I need to check it manually each time.

Hey @siliana , for monitoring Qlik Sense on premise tasks you have to use QRS API.

If you want to start a task you have to call /task/{id}/start end point.

If you want to monitor the task you have to call /task/full end point. In the response you will find the status code under operational --> lastExecutionResult --> status. If you want to get the description (Started, Failed, etc.) you have to translate status code into descr using /about/enums endpoint under TaskExecutionStatus node
