Connecting to QlikSense Desktop from .Net SDK

d_pranskus — Thu, 16 Apr 2015 11:56:30 GMT

Is it possible to connect to QlikSense Desktop using .Net SDK or do I need to have full version? I tried the following code, but it is not working, though no exception is raised.

Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

Dim local As Qlik.Engine.ILocation = Qlik.Engine.Location.FromUri("ws://localhost:4848")

Using Hub As IHub = local.Hub

Label1.Text = Hub.QvVersion

End Using

End Sub

Thanks

Hi Darius,

yes it is possible. You need to set up the security mode for the communication. If the security mode has not been established, the access to the location object will be refused. You will get an exception if you add try/catch.

The method to use when connecting to Qlik Sense Desktop is methodAsDirectConnectionToPersonalEdition();

local.AsDirectConnectionToPersonalEdition();
