Normally the qlik db is populated running script.
Is there any way to write my own utility to populate the qlik db without using scripts.
What i want to do is to generate data to be analyzed directly from my application (using proprietary data engine) instead of generate a formatted files and then import it, this to avoid two users step.
Thanks for any info

I believe the answer is "yes". Per the reference manual, under "What's New in QlikView 9":
2.6 Real-time data update
Dynamic Data Update
For the first time in QlikView history it is possible to programmatically update field data in real-time without running the script. Via new APIs and more or less standard SQL insert, update and delete commands, any QlikView field data can be updated directly in RAM. On a server the updated data is pushed out to the clients.
This functionality is freely available in stand-alone QlikView but requires an additional license on QlikView Server. See the QlikView API Guide for more information.
We're still using version 8.5, and I haven't experimented with this. But it sounds like what you're looking for?
