Can we activate Tabular Reporting from a button (via Application Automation)

Right now we can schedule Tabular Reporting for Day/Week/Month/Year or on reload of the app.

Can we also trigger the report via a button (action) or via Application Automation (which can be triggered via a action-button?)

There is nothing formally productized to trigger a report execution (with parameters) nor a report task execution from either a button or  Qlik App Automation.

The APIs exist to trigger a report task (which the API calls a sharing task). This was included in the Tabular Reports release last month. It may be used to trigger an execution.

You can now use the "Raw API Request" block to trigger a report task execution using QAA. The 'sharing-tasks' API has been allowed for use with the "Raw API Request" block making this now possible.
