I have a Qlik Sense app that has a handful of charts that respond to a particular filter.
Is there a (programmatic) way to apply filters to the charts, and export the sheet to a PDF.
Ultimately I would like to loop through a list of users, apply a filter for each user to the charts on my sheet, then export each sheet to a PDF.
Is there a way to accomplish this using the Qlik Sense menu items, QMC, via API?
I found a similar topic for Qlik View here: Loop through all filter values then print to PDF but want to know how this would be possible for a Qlik Sense app.
Thank you
Hi Aehsaei,
Since you are using Qlik Sense Enterprise, I think there are three ways:
1) Using APIs:
You must know js and the Qlik Apis and how to authanticate (cause it´s necessary logon into Qlik for each user).

2) Use NPrinting:
The NP it´s a Qlik module that you can import a list of users, fix a list of filters and than apply all that to Qlik automatically. This good tool can export PDF, Excel, Word, Powerpoint, HTML, send then by e-mail, write to disk and others.

3) Automate web macros
You can use a tool that automate macros like these: https://imacros.net/overview/ . There are many tools like that, so google it and test then to choose that seems better to you.
Good luck,
Pedro
