Is anyone aware of the feature that allows them to import script file into Qliksense like its done in Qlikview.
Currently I have to copy the script and paste it in the script editor of Qliksense
Hi Swarup_Malli,
You can use the include statement.
from Script Syntax and Chart Functions Guide:
Include The include variable specifies a file that contains text that should be included in the script. The entire script can thus be put in a file. This is a user-defined variable. This variable supports only folder data connections in standard mode.
Syntax:
$(Include =filename)
Example:
$(Include=abc.txt);
$(Include=lib://MyDataFiles\abc.txt);
If you don't specify a path, the filename will be relative to the Qlik Sense app working directory. You can also specify an absolute file path, or a path to a lib:// folder connection
The construction set Include =filename is not applicable.

Thank you ! for the response
I'm aware of that,I use Include statement very often (But even Include statement has to be manually typed in Qliksense unlike in Qlikview)
I meant somthing like this:
This function is not implemented in QlikSense.
Hi,
you can use the must_include sentence if you must be sure the file is loaded. This sentence will give you an error when reloading if the file script doesn't exist.
Regards
I didn't know, that "must_include" statement is possible to use in Qlik Sense. I'll try it.

Hi Swarup_Malli
If you think about a general Menu function to import scripts, then I haven't seen it in Qlik Sense either.
If you think about generally including scripts, then your syntax may look as follows - the " Lib.//000_Include " is a Qlik Sense Data Connector linked to the folder ...\000_Include where the scripts are stored as *.qvs files.
.. and yes, must-include works with Qlik Sense as well.. 🙂
Regards
