API to get QlikView report data as XML/JSON

[#1]

Hi,

I have a requirement where I want to read the QlikView dashboard data (or chart data) in Java or .NET code as a recordset. This can be compared to establishing a connection to the database(Oracle, SQL Server) , querying the table and fetching the data in Java/.NET. Is there any API in QlikView which I can use to achieve this ?

Is there any functionality in QlikView to return the chart data in XML/JSON format ?

Regards,

Samir.

There is nothing available to do what you want easily. You should use something like fiddler to watch the exchange between the ajax client and the qlikview server and implement your own qlikview client using java or .net. You may also embed the qlikview activex in a .net application, this will provide an API to get the document data and interact with the different sheet objects and should allow you to build a server that you could query the way you want.

None of those are trivial tasks, but I cannot think of another way.
