nprinting 17 task reload after QMC task

Hi,

Is there a way to trigger a Nprinting 17.3 task after completion of a QVW task in QMC like it was done in Nprinting 16.

Thanks,

Rakul

Need your help to fix the issue. Code is perfectly working in my local desktop, However when I move the code to RDP machine which is windows server 2008 R2. Here I am getting 403 Forbidden error. I had tried multiple way of running the code in server. But so far I haven't got any idea as to what could be the main reason. As I can see certificate installed in server and its working web console and newsstand without any issue, Also I have full permission access to the box and web console. So I would like to ask you a huge favour to understand what is the main problem here to resolve the issue.

p

Steps I followed:

1. Certification Installed
2. No Firewall blockage
3. Tried running from the service account
4. Tried running Admin account
5. Allowed cookies
6. Added Trusted site to this URL
7. Tried HTTP and https
8. Tried server name and server name with the domain
9. Tried Local host and IP address

Hi,

Well the error you are getting is 403.

It clearly says in :  https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/February2018/APIs/NP+API/index.html#tasksTaskIdExecutionsPost

403

The user is not authorized to create the task execution.

I think what happens is you are using a user you are logged in as when executing this POST request.

WIndows 2008R2 should work, but it is on quite old i would say.

https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/February2018/Content/DeployingQVNprinting/System-requirements_...

In overall i think the method with the HTML file was not elegant and i suggest you try RestConnector.

Hi Lech,

thanks of your reply.

Yes I read it your post.

I was only wondering if I use QlikSense and not Qlikview I can use the same method you described in the post above

Thanks a lot

Hi,

This method can be used in both Qlikview QMC and Qliksense environment. Basically you need to create a batch script to call the HTML file and then you need to setup this batch script in your external event to trigger.

Note - This method can be utilized only if you have Nprinting 17 with full administrator access.

Hope this will help you.

Thanks

Hi,

We have installed Nprinting 18.0 Feb 2018 version. Hope my issue will shorted out. Otherwise I am planning to change Windows Server 2012 R2.

Note - I have installed postman to check the connection. But still I am getting 403 Forbidden error.

Thanks Venki,

We have full installation of NPrinting with administrator access.

We'll try that way
