Hi All,
I am new to Qlik and I was wondering is there a way to refresh an app's data more than once every hour. Due to the nature of some of the reports we are wanting to use on our shop floor we are needing this to update every 2-5 minutes?
I k
Unfortunately, one hour is currently the shortest reload interval.
It's far from ideal, but one possible way around this limitation is to use Qlik Data Transfer to monitor a data folder and set your application to reload after the transfer occurs. You can push small QVDs to this folder every so often, which will in turn reload your app. Again, not ideal.. but it's one of the few options until Qlik improves the capability, which is said to be on the roadmap.
EDIT: Another option would be to trigger the reload through the API.
Hi @JordanGaw24
You can use the API to set the reload shorter that 1 hour.
Build the reload task - Get the reload task Id using
GET > https://tenant.eu.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/reload-tasks
Now do a POST
https://tenant.eu.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/reload-tasks/{TaskID} (Replace the TaskID with the actual Task ID)
