Qlik Cloud - Change Load script through REST API

[prismacalota]

Hello Everybody, 

Is there a way to replace a loading script of an existing app via REST API in Qlik Cloud? There is the method app.setscript() via einigma.js, but unfortunately we cannot find a way directly in the REST API.

Thank you

Thanks for reply. Apart from above mentioned link.

Do you have any example or reference to see how to work with script methods?

Hi,

I attempt to use Postman's rest API to remove the script from the Qlik Sense SaaS. However, even when I send a delete request, it remains in the app. Even after deleting the script via the rest API, the script is still there.

Hi @Giriprasath,

According to the documentation and my tests you can't delete the current version of the Script files:
"Deletes a specific version of the script for an app. Fails if the version to delete is the current version."

https://qlik.dev/apis/rest/apps/#%23%2Fentries%2Fv1%2Fapps%2F-appId%2Fscripts%2F-version-delete

With that said, if your intention is just to clear the current Load Script, you can use the POST Script API:
https://qlik.dev/apis/rest/apps/#%23%2Fentries%2Fv1%2Fapps%2F-appId%2Fscripts-post

The DELETE API is to delete historical changes of the Load Script.
