Single Object URL Callbacks in June 2018

[berndpodhradsky]

Hi everyone!

We make extensive usage of custom callbacks as used in Single Object URLs (as described in the documentation) by using the &callback=<our_callback_name> URL parameter and the appropriate javascript that handles these callbacks:

windows.<our_callback_name> = {
                                   onValid: function (vis)

                                   {

                                        doSomeStuff();

                                   },

                                   onRendered: function (vis)

                                   {                                                              

                                        doSomeStuff();    

                                   },

                                   onError: function (vis,message)

                                   {                                                                                                        doSomeStuff();

                                   }

                               };

This has worked in all releases of Qlik Sense without any problems; after installing June 2018, however, our callback functions are never called, thus "doSomeStuff" is never called. This applies to both Qlik Sense Desktop and Qlik Sense; it has definitely something to do with the upgrade, because - without changing anything else on the system - it works immediately before applying the June 2018 update and it stops working immediately after applying the June 2018 update.

The documentation does not contain any changes, so I guess this method is still supposed to work.

Does anyone know what's going on?

Thanks in advance,

Bernd

‌I have not tried this myself, but given that it is still documneted (Help - Single API URL) it should still be supported. I would recommend that you log a support case and you may even want to see if there is any conversation about this over in the Qlik Branch Slack Channel for Qlik Developers.

Hi berndpodhradsky‌,

It's a bug we introduced in the June release - I created a bug so we can fix it, but it will be great if you log an issue too.

I'm already on contact with Qlik Support regarding this issue; is this sufficient or do you want me do log the issue somewhere else as well?

Thanks for your prompt response,

Bernd

No, thank you - we already synced with support.
