Qlikview bookmark question

I would like to create the bookmark with "share bookmark with other user" using Macro.

But I cannot find any Macro script for sharing the bookmark with other user. Is it possible to do that?

You will find the COM API in the following link, it is a QVW file, that contains all the available API calls.  I would not recommend using macros unless there is no other way to do things, as macros have a very detrimental impact to app performance given they will force a single-thread calculation condition and may run into timing issues too depending upon what calculations are on the sheet in question etc. too.  Please be cautious when using macros to solve use cases.  I do not know if there is an API for server bookmarks or not, the APIs are quite old at this point and have not been updated in quite some time, and as far as I know, there are no plans to update them in the future either.

The other place to check may be Actions, which you will find in the following link:
