On-Demand Report Name

Hello Folks,

My team is on Qlik NPrinting February 2024 and we are using the On-Demand functionality for HTML reports.  My users are getting "filepath too long" errors when unzipping the report.  Is there a way to rename the HTML report in the zip file?  Currently its like a GUID with no dashes and that's preventing it from being unzipped.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi @justindallasverizon

as far as I know the limit is 260 characters for whole path. Is it maybe that the path where your reports are being unzipped contains already a lot of characters?

Have you tried copy this to location where path would be much shorter (like c:\temp )?

Also using other tools like 7zip should allow you to handle longer path names than standard 260 characters. 

Answeering your question - there is no control over autogenerated GUID of HTML inside the zip.

cheers
