Qliksense Engine API integration using POSTMAN

[agni_gold]

Hi Friends, 

I am using POSTMAN app to open a qliksense  docuemnt and post a filter over that app. 

I am not sure how should i approach that, i can connect to my qliksense server and getting a response as well, but how i can apply a filter to any app using engine api with postman. 

Please help on this, but urgent, and i am new for this.

I don't think you can. Postman lets you to HTTP requests, but to access the engine API you need to hook up a websocket.

Thanks , 

I would request you, kindly provide me with some best approach for below, 

I need to do 

1. Accept variables/Values from the webpage ( SFDC portal)
2. Filter report based on Filters ( Qlik sense)

Well, the Engine API is a big topic, so it's hard to give advice without knowing more about your background and what types of technologies you are familiar with. But a starting point for you might be here:

To understand how to interact with the Engine API you might also want to have a look at the "Concepts" descriptions found here:

https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense-developer/September2018/Subsystems/Platform/Content/Sense_Platform...

And there are examples of interactions available at various locations. If you are familiar with C#, then you might want to look into these examples:

Or this example that digs more into selection and data extraction using "hypercubes" (see "concepts" above):
