Hi all
I was wondering if it was possible to open a 2nd application from an already opened application.
E.g.: App A is open, using a button (or any other object) it opens App B.
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Tim P.
That should be possible. Each app has an url so if you use that url in a text object or in a navigation button you should be able to open the app.

This would require Qlik Sense Server or in case of Qlik Sense Desktop, working through the browser with localhost, right?
Or what I'm trying to say is: this wouldn't work in Qlik Sense Desktop itself, no?
Should work with QS Desktop too. But the app will then be opened in a browser and not in QS Desktop. Once you've started QS Desktop you can open the hub in a browser at http://localhost:4848/hub. Open an app and see what its url is.
Yes, that's what I meant. You won't be able to open a second "tab" in QS Desktop itself. But still works decent enough for what I had in mind.
Thanks!
I had the same requirement. However, when I try to open, I get the following error: The app you specified cannot be found.
I copied the url from localhost and pasted it exactly as is. Should I be changing anything?
Dear All,
Found the solution to why this was happening.
In the localhost url, there was also this part of C:/Users/Qlik... . Now that part was causing the issue. If you remove that part for the url and keep something like:
http://localhost::4848/sense/app/appname.qvf/sheet/sheetid/state/analysis,
then the navigation to other apps works seamlessly.
Bonus: Let us say you need to pass filter while navigating to/opening another app. This can also be easily achieved. The way to do it is:
http://localhost::4848/sense/app/appname.qvf/sheet/sheetid/state/analysis/selections/bookmark/bookmarkid
or
http://localhost::4848/sense/app/appname.qvf/sheet/sheetid/state/analysis/selections/field/fieldvalue.
Please let me know if there are other ways to achieve the same results.
Regards,
Abhishek.
