Qlik Cloud Analytics: when querying Apps API endpoint, Scripts, Data Flows and Table Recipes are included in the results

[Daniele_Purrone]

When querying the /api/v1/apps endpoint in Qlik Cloud Analytics, the results also include Scripts, Data Flows, and Table Recipes.

Is there a way to see only the apps?

Example output:

{                   
  "attributes": {
    "_resourcetype": "app",
    "createdDate": "2025-08-27T06:31:14.767Z",
    "custom": {},
    "description": "",
    "dynamicColor": "",
    "encrypted": true,
    "hasSectionAccess": false,
    "id": "54b3b705-f00f-48ce-bbff-2497926f79e0",
    "isDirectQueryMode": false,
    "lastReloadTime": "",
    "modifiedDate": "2025-08-27T06:31:15.215Z",
    "name": "THIS IS ACTUALLY A TABLE RECIPE",
    "originAppId": "",
    "owner": "auth0|omitted",
    "ownerId": "omitted",
    "publishTime": "",
    "published": false,
    "thumbnail": "",
    "usage": "SINGLE_TABLE_PREP"
  },
  "create": [
    {
      "canCreate": true,
      "resource": "sheet"

...

Resolution

This is working as designed. From the Qlik Cloud Analytics perspective, Scripts, Data Flows, and Table Recipes are considered apps. 

To recognize them, the “usage” attribute needs to be checked:

"usage": “ANALYTICS” → apps
"usage": "SINGLE_TABLE_PREP" → table recipes
"usage": "DATA_PREPARATION" → scripts
"usage": "DATAFLOW_PREP" → data flows
