lQRS API: Start Tasks

Mon, 18 Apr 2016 05:45:47 GMT

We are trying to connect to the QRS API to automate some QMC tasks.

We are having mixed results in our implementation, most of the end points are working, such as

http://servername/qrs/task

but we are not able to get these tasks running.

http://servername/qrs/task/acbaa15a-b131-48d2-b318-8e390a0470d8/start/synchronous

http://servername/qrs/task/start/synchronous?name=Task1

Both of these return the following error:

The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.

Has anybody seen anything similar, or have any idea on how to troubleshoot?

For what its worth, this is the the info about the task are trying to trigger which we get back from the qrs/task endpoint:

Since you are issuing your requests through the proxy, have you looked at this doc entry for POST requests against QRS when connecting over the proxy?
Issuing POST commands via the proxy ‒ Qlik Sense

If you don't intend to apply any user authentication to your request you might just be better off by user the Qlik Sense service certs and issuing your request directly against the master QRS instance instead of hoping through the proxy.
