Is it possible to load a Qlik Sense qvf files into QlikView to load it's data model?

Hi all,

Is it possible to load a Qlik Sense qvf files into QlikView to load it's data model?

Kind of like doing a binary load?

If yes, what is the method to load Qlik Sense qvf file into a QlikView application please?

Unfortunately can't use a qvf as a source in qlikview

But there is a work around.

1) Create a new qvf

2) Use the source qvf files that has the data model  as a source file in the new qvf ( binary load)

3) Use the following snippet to extract all the tables into an excel file (can't use qvds generated by qvf in qlikview)

binary load the source qvf

//below code will extract all the tables from the datamodel

for i=0 to nooftables() -1

let vTable =tablename();

store '$(vTable)' into path\$(vTable).csv;

Next

Let j=nooftables();

do while j>0

let vTable =Tablename(0);

    drop table '$(vTable)';

let j=nooftables();

loop

4) then you can use the csv's as a source for the qvw

Thanks
