Hi All,
I'd like to know if it's possible to set up an automatic reload based on an External Event which would be an excel file dropped on sharepoint.
The context is: I need to find a way to automate a process which is:
A person send a file by mail to another one and then this person reload a Qlikview application based on this file (and other sources).
So there are two steps to change
- For the first one (Email), we have thought that using sharepoint to let the user manage the file by him self would be a good idea (and give us the benefit of versionning etc...)
I did some tests using the UNC Path Name for loading data from file stored on Sharepoint and it seems to work.
- For the second step (automation) I don't really know what kind of event I can trigger on, to launch the reload. So If you could help on this.
BTW, maybe using sharepoint is not the best idea, so I you have others it could be great to.
Thanks
Thomas
