Unable to fetch file when trying to include Qlik Cloud native script in another app

It is not possible to Include and Must_include variables with native Qlik Cloud scripts. Doing so leads to the error:

Unable to fetch file

Resolution

The possibility to include native Qlik Cloud scripts in other apps is on the roadmap for 2025.

In the meantime, there are two possible workarounds:

  • Manually copy and paste the script to a txt file, then save it as a qvs file and reimport it
  • In the native script: 
    1. Enter the script editor
    2. Access the script's history
    3. Export the script from there
    4. You will receive a qvs in text format
    5. Import the qvs to the tenant and use that in the “include” variable

 

Cause

There are two sorts of script files in Qlik Cloud:

native scripts.pngNative scripts: they are qvf files. They can be reloaded on their own, but currently cannot be included.

 

 

qvs scripts.pngQvs scripts: they are imported as datasets, and they are txt files. They cannot be reloaded on their own, but they can be included.
