Making selections using URL

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hi,

I am just looking into seeing if there is a way for making a selection on a field via the Qlikview AccessPoint URL. We are looking to access a qlikview document via a URL from another application.

I have seen a method of using a list box which works ok (http://servername/QvAJAXZfc/opendoc.htm?document=Document.qvw&host=Local&select=Document\LB05, Test), but would like to know if we can reference an actual field in the document in the URL.

Thanks

Nilesh

Hi Nilesh,

Note that a listbox is actually a field. You can refer to objects in the URL, and if the field is not being used in any listbox, you can always create a bookmark and refer to the bookmark in the URL instead of the listbox.

Hope that helps.

Miguel

Hi Miguel,

Thanks for the quick response!

We wanted to avoid making changes to the current production version of the Qlikview Application by adding a listbox or a bookmark. This is why I am looking into seeing if we can filter on the actual field name without referencing any kind of object.

Thanks

Nilesh
