Transfer Bookmarks between QVWs

Anonymous — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Is it possible to transfer bookmarks from one dashboard to another?

I have one qvw with identical field names to another qvw that I would like to publish to QVS.

However, I have a number of users that have made numerous bookmarks in this 'old' qvw.

Is it possible to somehow migrate these 'old' bookmarks from one qvw to another qvw?

I copied the .shared file from one to the other and renamed it. Worked fine

Looking for your help on this.... How you have downloaded the bookmarks created by user on access point.

I have the same requirement. Please reply.

Hello Ashwin,

I know that your question has been posted for more than a year now but I can't leave it unanswered.

You can find the .shared file containing the bookmarks in your UserDocument folder, on your server.

Locate the folder path of the .qvw file in question (on your qlikview server). The .shared file should be in the same folder with a file name that exactly matches your .qvw except is also has a .shared after it.
