Is there any way of viewing running tasks in Qlik SaaS?

[qlikster]

Hi,

Maybe I've missed this but I've searched and tried all management modules in Qlik Cloud.

Is there a way to view running tasks/reloads anywhere?

Hi @qlikster ,

this can be achieved by quering the /api/v1/reloads APIs.

For instance, after authenticating to your tenant, you can go to https://TENANT.REGION.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/reloads 

You will get a list of reloads like this, with the latest ones on top:

{
"data": [
{
"id": "65c9d6ce285671525ea59509",
"appId": "bfef24dc-4308-4444-9e2d-1ef2b8077c44",
"tenantId": "BZOrFeLtFE2FXJqzDmamnnhS9c4jvA4D",
"userId": "61m9lscMGmtsh9q95y_51NNZpv_6bV62",
"type": "chronos",
"status": "RELOADING",
"partial": false,
"creationTime": "2024-02-12T08:29:02Z",
"startTime": "2024-02-12T08:29:03.74Z",
"links": {
"self": {
"href": "https://tnant.region.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/reloads/65c9d6ce285671525ea59509"
}
}
},
{
"id": "65c9d61bdf8dbfa0f331ae75",
"appId": "bfef24dc-4308-4444-9e2d-1ef2b8077c44",
"tenantId": "BZOrFeLtFE2FXJqzDmamnnhS9c4jvA4D",
"userId": "61m9lscMGmtsh9q95y_51NNZpv_6bV62",
"type": "chronos",
"status": "SUCCEEDED",
"log": "ReloadID: 65c9d61bdf8dbfa0f331ae75\nStarted loading data\n(A detailed script progress log can be downloaded when the reload is finished)\nApp saved\nFinished successfully\n",
"partial": false,
"creationTime": "2024-02-12T08:26:03Z",
"startTime": "2024-02-12T08:26:04.267Z",
"endTime": "2024-02-12T08:26:05.83Z",
"engineTime": "2024-02-12T08:26:05.261Z",
"links": {
"self": {
"href": "https://tenant.region.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/reloads/65c9d61bdf8dbfa0f331ae75"
}
}
},

(please note: on some browsers, you might need an extension to format the json text in a nice way like above).

You can then check which tasks (on top) are in "status": "RELOADING" or "QUEUED".

You can also use the qlik command line "qlik reload -v ls" to get the same.

If you have any suggestion about what to add/improve in the product, please feel free to suggest an idea.

Is not it a good idea to view the running tasks in management console rather than through api like we see in client managed Qlik Sense ?

Hi @sanrout ,

it is definitely a good idea! I'd recommend that you post any suggestion you might have on the ideation page, so that we can gather consensus around it.
