Is there any way to use the COM api to renew the lease of a license? I tried using the OpenDocument api method to open a document on the server, but the problem is that QlikView will ask for the server password (using a popup with a textbox), I've found no way to pass in the password automatically. Is there any solution?</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 26 Jan 2026 16:26:21 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Renewing-license-lease-when-using-the-COM-api/m-p/48291#M1236350 master_t 2026-01-26T16:26:21Z Re: Renewing license lease when using the COM api https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Renewing-license-lease-when-using-the-COM-api/m-p/48292#M1236353 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I don't think so.</P><P></P><P>AFAIK, the only way you can use Qlik Technology without starting QlikView desktop to do the "licensing paperwork" is with an OEM license and by integrating the OCX in your application.</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 17 May 2018 14:48:05 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Renewing-license-lease-when-using-the-COM-api/m-p/48292#M1236353 Peter_Cammaert 2018-05-17T14:48:05Z
