As per https://help.qlik.com/en-US/cloud-services/Subsystems/Hub/Content/Sense_Hub/Bookmarks/create-bookmar... we should be able to save values of variables in bookmarks but unfortunately this doesn't work.
I created a simple app and added a variable input object to manipulate the value of the variable:
Next, I created a bookmark including the option 'Save variable state in bookmarks'. After manipulating the variable value and apply the bookmark I would assume that the value of the variable will change to the old value, when the bookmark was created, but the value always stays untouched.
I am not sure if I understand the function correctly or if it is a different problem. I hope someone can help me.
Regards
Jan

Hello all, after several months I came back to this... and 'solved' it.
Variables that are generated in script (these ones, marked with the script icon) won't get saved as variable state in bookmarks. However, variables that are generate in the UI through the variables dialog will be saved. Unfortunately this functionality isn't documented anywhere so it's a bit misleading.
It's really strange... I double-checked it, but after setting the option to save the variable state, the information of the bookmark says 'Variable state: None' (even in a vanilla app)
