Do the QSEoW logs collect fields values selected or search queries entered by the users?

[diagonjope]

Greetings!

We are trying to find out if QSEoW logs audit traces of the field values selected or the searches entered by a user through the UI.

Is this info available somewhere?  It doesn't seem to be included in the Qlik Monitoring Apps.

@Chip_Matejowskyor @Bastien_Laugiero, can any of you please point me in the right direction to find the answer to this question?

Cheers,

++José

Hi José!

After doing some testing, I have found one way but it's not that straight forward I am afraid.

If you enable the Engine Traffic logs to INFO, you will basically start to get a lots of information about what the engine is doing and the information you are looking for is in there. 

Here is an example output :

• Retrieve selected value:

{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":115,"delta":true,"result":{"qDataPages":[{"op":"replace","path":"/","value":[{"qMatrix":[[{"qText":"364","qNum":364,"qElemNumber":363,"qState":"A"}],[{"qText":"156","qNum":156,"qElemNumber":155,"qState":"A"}],[{"qText":"234","qNum":234,"qElemNumber":233,"qState":"A"}],[{"qText":"520","qNum":520,"qElemNumber":519,"qState":"S"}],[{"qText":"546","qNum":546,"qElemNumber":545,"qState":"S"}],[{"qText":"676","qNum":676,"qElemNumber":675,"qState":"A"}]],"qTails":[],"qArea":{"qLeft":0,"qTop":0,"qWidth":1,"qHeight":11}}]}]}} 

qState":"S" means SELECTED

• Retrieve a search

{"delta":true,"handle":15,"method":"SearchListObjectFor","params":["/qListObjectDef","test"],"id":149,"jsonrpc":"2.0"}

Note that the traffic logs are generating a very large amount of information so I wouldn't recommend to leave it enabled forever on a production system. 

Finally, it might be a good idea to look at the ideation portal to see if there is already a feature request on that topic. https://community.qlik.com/t5/Ideas/idb-p/qlik-ideas

Hope this helps!

Thank you Bastien!   I am sorry that you had to go through some hurdles to find this alternative.  It is not perfect, but it helps.  I will pass this to the customer that is looking for this mechanism (a government agency).

Cheers,
