Export NPrinting Publish Task Information?

Hi,

We would like to be able to analyze all the recipient information in our NPrinting system. Is it possible to export all publish task information to a flat file or something like that?

Thanks,

Scott

Hi,

If you are using Qlik NPrinting November 2017 please plan an upgrade because it is an out of support version.

There is not a native feature to export Publish Task information but you could use the Governance Dashboard https://community.qlik.com/t5/Qlik-NPrinting-Documents/NPrinting-Governance-Dashboard/ta-p/1744538 that is a Qlik Sense app that retrieves information from the Qlik NPrinting Repository.

An alternative could be to use the official APIs that includes GET calls to retrieve information from Tasks https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/May2021/Content/NPrinting/Extending/Intro-Extending.htm

You could also connect and query the Repository but pay great attention if you are not familiar with PostgreSQL because you could damage your installation. If you follow this way I suggest to create a backup of your installation.

Best Regards,

Ruggero

Thanks for the response. We are in the process of upgrading the software. We'll have to look into the Goverance dashboard for QlikSense. Thanks for the tip.
