Qlik Mashup - Reading QVD Data direct from QVD using an API.
Hi All,
I have been looking through the documentation for trying to get data directly from a QVD and not via an apps app.getData() methods.
Has anyone been able to do this, I cannot find any methods in the documentation to achieve such endeavour ?

Hi
I have also a similar requirement to read a QVD using API calls. Were you able to find a solution for this?
Thanks

Hi @alex_colombo ,
My use case is that I want to reuse the QVDs in some other databases or systems as a source.
For e.g. I want to load the QVDs to Power BI. For that I am looking for a connector /API
Appreciate your help!
Thanks

I suggest to read QVD data directly from source system and not from another BI tool. As per my previous message, there are no APIs for this scenario

We are using Qlik essentially as an ETL tool. We did a lot of work on ETL side and now there is a treasure of cleansed and aggregated data resides in QVDs.
To avoid redoing alll the work in Power BI, we are looking for an option to connect to QVDs from Power BI
Thanks

Qlik can store data into TXT/CSV as well. Then the generated files then can be used from other systems as well.
// store into qvd
store mytable into myfile.qvd (qvd);
// store into csv
store mytable into myfile.txt (txt);

Thanks @stefanstoichev123 .
Yes , I know this option. But this create the duplicate data sets. So thought of finding a better way to do this( probably a QVD connector)
Thanks

It will indeed.
Unfortunately there is no (easy) way to read QVD files.
As far as Im aware there is no reliable js package (or in any other language in that matter) that can read QVD files.
