Getting info from Qlik Sense Repository Database

Hello,

I am currently connected to my QS Repository Database, using a PostgreSQL connection. The idea is to access the repository tables in order to find all objects and corresponding definitions (e.g. a Master Item measure or a variable, defined inside the app, and its corresponding expression/formula), for all the applications I have developed.

However, I am not finding enough information about the tables available at the QSR database, and the information that I am looking for seems to be encrypted inside these tables. Any ideas on how to achieve this? Thanks in advance!

Afaik that information is not stored in the repository database, but in the .qvf files of the apps. But you can use the REST api to get that information. See for example https://github.com/countnazgul/QS-backup-and-restore-app
