Qlik Sense - Mashup - API- Qlik Tabbed Container Feature - Don't use object ID as element ID

[rbartley]

Hi everyone,

This is a warning rather than a question.  Today I found an interesting feature of the Qlik Tabbed Container extension.  If you use the object ID to as the element ID, the extension will be hidden. Here is an example:

This is ok:

...

app.getObject('qv1','12d8901e-a7f5-4494-a01c-d6b97a8fb0c6');

...

<div id='qv1' class='qlik-tabbed-container qvobject vislocked'>

This is not ok:

...

app.getObject('12d8901e-a7f5-4494-a01c-d6b97a8fb0c6','12d8901e-a7f5-4494-a01c-d6b97a8fb0c6');

...

<div id='12d8901e-a7f5-4494-a01c-d6b97a8fb0c6' class='qlik-tabbed-container qvobject vislocked'>

Just thought I'd let you know as it might save someone an hour or so of banging their head against the wall
