QRS API content library upload

[pasokaza]

I am uploading images with 2million images using the qrs api.

However the upload seems to be slow. 

We are having 11k images upload in 21hours.

May I know what is the best practice in storing the images?

We are using the images to display in the mashup.

What you could do to speed it up is upload extremely small placeholder images with the same name and file type. Then overwrite them in the file system. They should be located at `%QlikShareMount%/StaticContent/Content/%ContentLibaryName%/`.

I've found that QSE won't automatically recognize the files if you place them directly there, but once they are initialized through uploading, you can update the files directly.

Thanks for the help we change our approach because It takes some time to upload 2million images in the content library.

What we do is setup an IIS and place all the images in the local directory linked to the IIS server site.
