Path

[smilingjohn]

Hi All, 

I want to save the QVD's to a path by jumping th folder i am a bit confused to how do we do it in Qliksense . 

Belw is the path from where i have fetched the data(QVD) 

FROM [lib://DEV - Dept- Qliksense/QVD/Sales.qvd]

I want to know how do i store store the QVD's by jumping the folder with above path  I want to mentione only 

 ../Qliksense/QVD/sales.qvd(qvd);

Thanks in Advance

You can't* use relative path in Qlik Sense. You need to use the LIB. 

If the LIB is to change often then you could store it as a variable in the beginning of the script and then use the variable thereafter.

SET vLib = lib://DEV - Dept- Qliksense/;
LOAD * FROM [$(vLib)QVD\sales.qvd] (qvd);

STORE myTable into [$(vLib)QVD\myTable.qvd] (qvd);

*) it might be possible with relative path if you on Qlik Sense System level changes from Standard mode to Legacy mode. Read: Disabling standard mode ‒ Qlik Sense on Windows and  Legacy vs. Standard Mode in Qlik Sense: Explainer and Security Considerations and
