Script Parameters in Task

Hi,

I would like to pass a variable to the script of an app from my reload task of that app in the  Qlik Sense QMC .
In QlikView QMC tasks this is possible under Reload -  Script Parameters.

But apparently this feature is missing in Qlik Sense.
Someone posted this as an active idea: Idea - Sense Task Parameter Passing 

Has anyone a work-around how I can achieve this in Qlik Sense?

Thanks!

Hi @Fred 

How did you do finally?

It was easier with EDX (QlikView)

Cross posting a possible solution for parameter passing:
https://community.qlik.com/t5/Ideas/Sense-Task-parameter-passing/idc-p/1779762/highlight/true#M4911

That solution involves using an open source, generic key-value store running inside of a micro service. Not particularly hard to set up, but some work needed of course. The upside is that you get a very flexible solution that both handles task chaining with parameters and other scenarios where you need to share data between Sense apps or Sense and other tools.

Please mark the post as a solution if it provided you with a solution to the topic at hand. Thanks!
