Hey @Anonymous , did you find the solution to this in qliksense ?? I need to do exact same to automate excel and create various worksheets within with the help of vbscript.

Hi, I think you should reconsider this and try to use another approach. What does your VBScript do?

Hello @Clever_Anjos ,

I am using VBscript to autocreate an excel and copy paste qlik objects in various sheets(Tables, charts,pivots etc.)- This approach works in qlikview and I worked on it in the past.

I really do not know any other approach for autogenerating excel workbook.

As Qlik Sense uses another approach (100% web technologies that don´t rely on client) you will need a language like python, c#, node.js, etc and connect to the platform API (https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense-developer/May2021/Content/Sense_Helpsites/Build-create-explore.htm) to achieve what you need.
