Using API Qlik Answers

Good afternoon

I have tried several ways to use the Qlik Answers API, but I can't get it to work.

I appreciate your help

The Qlik Answers API can be a bit fiddly to get going the first time, mostly down to a few common trip-ups: the auth token/scope not having the right permissions for the Answers endpoint, the request body not matching the expected schema for your specific Answers app, or pointing at the wrong base URL/tenant.

Could you give a bit more detail so we can actually help rather than guess? Specifically:

What are you trying to achieve with the API? For example, are you looking to ask questions programmatically and get answers back, embed Answers into another application, or automate something on a schedule?

What exactly happens when it doesn't work? Are you getting an authentication error, a permissions error, a malformed response, or something else? If you're able to share the actual error message (with any sensitive details like tokens or tenant IDs removed), that would help a lot.

How are you calling it? For example, are you using curl, Postman, a script, or an automation, and do you have a sample of the request you're sending?

Once we know what you're aiming for and where it's actually failing, it'll be much easier to point you in the right direction.
