Use Qlik Sense fields to send SQL query to Postgres server
Hi community!
I am developing a Qlik Sense app and in my script I would like to send a SQL query to Postgres with Qlik fields in order to execute it and send me back the results to be displayed in Qlik.
I have a table loaded in Qlik Sense, which has 3 columns (numeric values (double precision in SQL language)). What I want to do is to call a function declared in Postgres and use the 3 fields as arguments to the functions. The problem is that the function only accepts single values, I want to execute it for every record in my Qlik table.
For example :
Here is my table in Qlik :
A | B | C
220.2 | 250.0 | 250
250.6 | 280.0 | 300
250.9 | 290.0 | 320
I want to execute this :
ST_Transform(st_pointz("A","B","C",9895), 4937) for every record and get the result in a table.
So, i need to have in a new table, these results :
I did one solution, which consists of looping over the table and getting the "i" value, send the request to postgres and get the data in a table, then increment the i and do the same thing with the next line... It does the job, but when in production I will have thousands or millions of record data, it is going to be so heavy and it will have a negative impact on the performance !
