Hi,
Just started dabbling with qliksense.
The binary reload fails for the following statement in the script editor:
Binary [My app.qvw];
exit script;
This is the error I get:
Started loading data
BINARY statment only takes a lib:// path in the script mode Binary [My app.qvw]
Data load failed
I refered the following thread,wasn't very helpful
Hi! Follow the steps to create a connection and do a binary load.
1- Go to Create new connection, and than to Folder;
- Go to the folder that your qvw is located, and give a name to the connection. This name you'll use on your binary load.
-
3 - Do your binary load with the following sintax, using the connection name that you've created before.
Hope it helps.

Hi!
To do a binary load, you need first to create a Folder Connection pointing to the folder that your qvw is located.
Than you can do
Binary [lib://YourFolderConnectionName/My app.qvw];

Thanks Gabriella for the quick response
It still fails for the following statement
Binary [lib://N:\Qliksense\ Activity Folder structure\DashBoards\My App.qvw];
exit script;
let say the source qvw is located in the following location
N:\Qliksense\ Activity Folder structure\DashBoards
Source qvw name:My App.qvw
Then I also created a Qliksense document in the same folder i.e. in
N:\Qliksense\ Activity Folder structure\DashBoards
So now both the source document(qvw) and qliksense(qvf) are in the same folder.
What should the syntax be for binary reload ?

Swarup - you can also take a look at this video:
Qlik Sense Desktop - Loading Data from QlikView Applications (video)
and many others to learn more: New to Qlik Sense Videos
A note just to make sure, make sure the Binary load statement is the first statement in the script editor.
Qlik Sense by default uses Standard Mode to load data - which means it needs the LIB syntax.
(If you want to use drive letter and folder directory paths - you must use Legacy Mode.
You can learn more here: but we recommend you keep it at Standard mode)
