Execute QlikView Through Batch Process

Thu, 14 Apr 2011 06:26:04 GMT

Hello,

I have developer license running QlikView 10 Personal Edition. I am wondering if there's a way to execute a command batch process through Task Scheduler in Windows 7 to schedule a QlikView document to be reloaded on a daily basis?

This will truly help my automation process so I don't have to manually refresh the data on a daily basis.

If there are white paper documentation on this batch process or another posting, it would help me a bunch!

Much Appreciated In Advance!

Hi,

you have to create a batch file and schedule it with the windows scheduler.

the command would be some what like :

"C:\Program Files\QlikView\Qv.exe" /R "<path of your application>.qvw"

Hope this helps.

Regards, tresesco

Hi there,

the solution given by Tresesco is very much correct and followed by most of us. Just create a batch file- open notepad and paste the location on which your qlikview resides for eg in c drive under program file..... enclosed within double quotes followed by a space and then \r and then space followed by the location where your qlikview document(which you want to automate) is kept.

You then need to schedule your batch file through windows schedular.

you will be saving your notepad with the extension .bat

This is how you can schedule things in QlikView.....

Given the expiring licenses in v10, how can I successfully automate this scheduled QV reload task through windows scheduler? I am using a server license..

Thanks,,
