QLIK CLOUD How Reload application every 5 minutes ?

[steeramp]

As written in the title , how can I reload my application every 5 minutes ?

Obviously the data volume is very poor

Hi @steeramp,

You can create a Qlik Application Automation to reload your Qlik Application every 5min however, you are going to run out of Automation calls if you have to reload it 24/7.

One other alternative is to use Qlik Cloud REST API - Reloads REST | Qlik Developer Portal
You can create any custom code that supports REST and use any scheduler tool to call your custom code every 5min. Examples:

• A PowerShell script running on Windows Scheduler
• A Stored Procedure that runs as SQL Jobs
• A Python code running as a job on AWS

Qlik-CLI may also works but I never used it.

Hi Mark,

I was already testing with QLIK AUTOMATION ... but can you confirm that it is not possible to define a scheduler only from Mon-Fri every 5 minutes?

You can create 3 Automations:

• One automation that runs Weekly (every Monday) to Enable your 5min Automation
• One automation that runs Weekly (every Friday/Saturday) to Disable your 5min Automation
• The 5min Automation

For the Weekly Automations, you can setup like the example below - to enable the automation:

This is really what is called a “work around”
