Open QlikView.Application without UI

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 16:26:21 GMT

Hi, I need to open a Qlik document and do some operations on it using the COM QlikView.Application interface. The problem is that I have to use it from a service, so I don't want the application to display the user interface of QLikView. Is it possible with QlikView.Application to open the application in a HIDDEN MODE? Or should I use some other object to perform this task?

Thank you in advance for your help

Hi,

I think you need to look at QlikView Workbench.

Sorry, can you send me some more details about this solution? I googled for QLikView Workbench, but the only results I found are about web integration and stuff like that, while I'm looking for some example how to open and change a QVW file from a Windows service, without showing the UI.

Thank you in advance for your time and patience
