QRS Setup

[Ana31]

Hi All,

I am required to setup QRS API. our qlik runs in 443 port so according to qlik help docu this comes under virtual proxy. I have setup virtual proxy accordingly but still in postman i am getting error like 400 header not found. the link in postman is GET https:// qlikserver/qrs/about?xrfkey=(16 character key) and also filled the required headers. If anyone has done the similar setup of QRS Kindly help on this.

Note: Basically we need to automate tasks in qlik and for this accessing the qrs via postman to check

Thank you 🙂

I got the solution after referring many community blogs. pls find the link: How to access QRS (Repository) from Load Script - Qlik Community - 1484264

In QMC under Proxies > need to link the newly created virtual proxy (VP) header under 'CENTRAL' and 'PROXY1'. In my prod qlik server i found both central and proxy1 so i linked the new VP but UAT qlik server does not have PROXY1 so you  need to link only in Central Proxy. once you do this try to run it in POSTMAN.

In Postman give this:

userid: qlikuser  (or any name)

X-Qlik-xrfkey: 16 char

Content-Type: application/json

Once you give this in QMC under Users a new user will be created called qlikuser under User directory-APIUSER assign Role as admin. Now run the GET command in postman again you will get 200k means successful. next to run the task automatically via postman POST command give the taskid- hdr/qrs/task/xxxx/start?xref- ..
