Overview of data sources in all apps

[simon_jensen]

Hi,

Does anyone know if it is possible to get a list of data connections / data sources for each app in Qlik Sense ?

In my organization we have developed many apps over time, and we now try to streamline the data sources. So that we don't have several QVD-files with the same purpose.

I would like to create an app with a tabel in this format:

App Name	Data Connection
App 1	SQL Database Connection 1
App 1	SQL Database Connection 2
App 1	QVD-file X
App 2	SQL Databse Connection 1
App 2	QVD-file X
App 2	QVD-file Y
App 2	QVD-file Z
App 2	Web connector 1
App 2	REST API Connection 1
App 3	SQL Database Connection 2
App 3	Attached Excel
App 3	QVD-file X
App 3	QVD-file Y
App 3	QVD-file Z

Please don't hesiate if you have any ideas on how to solve this.

Thanks.

Hi,

One way you could do it. Is to load the script logs and just filter on the parts that show the connection.Another way is to do it via the api, get all apps, then loop through the list to get the scripts and then extract the connections that way.

I used the first method so see what the developers loaded just to know what was happening. because of this method iI could also find out the duration of the load on a specific source. which can also help in performance.

You just need to make sure each RIM node have access to all the script folders in a multi node setup. this due to the fact that the script logs of rim nodes are not synced to the archived folder, only the script logs from the scheduler are synced.
