Qlik Automate: Execution tokens will become header parameters on February 1st, 2026

[Sonja_Bauernfeind]

Hello Qlik Users,

As announced previously (see Qlik Automate execution token changes), execution tokens will become header parameters on February 1st, 2026.

When triggering a triggered automation through the trigger URL (see the endpoint below), the execution token must be sent as a header parameter. Currently, it is possible to send the execution token as a query parameter. Starting February 1st, 2026, sending execution tokens as header parameters will be enforced.

api/v1/automations/{id}/actions/execute

Any Button objects using the built-in Run Automation feature are not affected by this change.

Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or address our experts directly in the Qlik Automate forum.

Thank you for choosing Qlik,
Qlik Support
