How to setup Airflow for QLIK SaaS ?

Hi all,

I would like to trigger my automation in QLIK SaaS with Airflow but I don't understant how I need to set up the connection in airflow->admin->connection setting

My understanding is airflow use API of Qlik to trigger automation. So I create an API key in QLIK but I don't understand how I need to set up the connection in Airflow.

I read this link- (https://www.heyde.ch/insights/apache-airflow-qlik-sense-saas-ladeketten-on-premise-datenupload) but is not explain for beginner that I am 🙂

 

I also find this project (https://github.com/bintocher/qlikflow)but I don't understant what is exatly.

 

If someone could help me please.

hi @To_Start 
In this forum, we would be able to help you with questions related to the product Qlik Application Automation.

This question seems to be related to Qlik Sense, if so, could you please post your question in that forum (https://community.qlik.com/t5/Qlik-Sense/ct-p/qlik-sense)?

Hi All,
Thanks for your reply and help.
I finally succes to trigger Qlik with airflow with  API command.

But I did'nt receive response of the state of automation.

Means when Airflow trigger the Qlik automation, Airflow  mark as green the task imediatly and not take care of the real state.

@tens Your connector have the response of the state ?

Thanks for your help
