Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows QRS API '/qrs/App/table' returns unexpected response

In Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows, using QRS API '/qrs/App/table' by providing a body returns more than expected rows. 

Example

  1. Using POSTMAN, we perform a POST call including the body:

    qrs api body.png

  2. With the above body, we expect that the response rows would ONLY contain name, id, and values as defined above in "list":

  3. However, this POST request returns more than the requested rows, such as id, name, valueType, choiceValues, and privileges:

Resolution

This behavior has been identified as defect SUPPORT-6127.

It is caused by the default value of the parameter HideCustomPropertyDefinition set to true in the Repository.exe.config file. Changing the parameter from true to false resolves it.

To change the value: 

  1. Navigate to C:\Program Files\Qlik\Sense\Repository\ and locate Repository.exe.config
  2. Open Repository.exe.config in a text editor
  3. Find HideCustomPropertyDefinition and set its value from true to false
    If you are running a multi node environment, make the change on each node. 
  4. Save the Repository.exe.config file‘false’

Cause

Issue related to the default configuration setting of the parameter HideCustomPropertyDefinition in the Repository.exe.config file.
