Static Select from Listbox in Qlik Sense

[rcflores]

I am trying to select from a listbox in a Qlik Sense app with Type "Values", but I can't seem to hit the entry I need to select. Could someone please help point me in the right direction?

The listbox has five possible values. So in the Qlik Sense Scalability Tool's Select action I have specified Type=Values, and for Values I've listed 0, 1, 2, 3,4.  The qElemNumber of what I want to select is 1, so I specify Dimension=1 in the tool. When I execute the script however, I get a "Selection in object failed".

I saw another thread in this forum touching on how to determine these values in QV (https://community.qlik.com/t5/Qlik-Scalability/Need-to-select-2-static-selections-from-Listbox-in-QV...), but is there a way to do something similar in Qlik Sense?

Ultimately I just need to select one entry in this listbox on a consistent basis. I've tried using SelectString using the qText value of the entry but that also fails.

Hi,

To select qElemNumber 1 using mode "values", you need to enter enter "1" in the array of values to select. The dimension is the dimension number you are selecting in starting at 0. Since a listbox only have one dimension the dimension value should be 0.

E.g. like this for dimension:0, element value:1

To figure out the element values, the best way is to use browser dev tools, it "Network" filter on "WS", then click the websocket and "Messages" (firefox) or frames" (chrome).

Did you use Dimension:1 here too? If dimension 0 was chosen and the "StringSelection" was the (case sensitive) qText value, this should have worked.

This info helps a lot. Thank you!
