It would be great if i can access the app as a Data Source, using Data Connection like anothers sources as well.
Today, using APIs we can access all the apps and his objects, dimensions and measures using javascript or .net sdk... but can´t access it in the Qlik Script.
Qlik Script can copy the Data Model using Binary but don´t access the master items data or just the data of a table object created inside another app.
If we could access the app data and objects using Qlik Script, it would reduce duplicated formulas, measures, dimensions and objects among the apps. it would also reduce the apps size cause the objects data can be used by the derived app, instead the full app data did by the Binary. We could combine two or more apps data inside a new app and create new visualization and formulas more easily.
There is an extension called q2g Sense App wich do something like that but it is hard to install and doesn´t work very well. It was great if it was standard feature as a Qlik Data Connector.
