import a variables csv file into QlikSense

[dadumas]

I use an external excel file for all my QlikView variable definitions.  I use a for...next loop to load them in, after my binary loads  This works great.

I do not see a way to do this in QlikSense.  If it is possible, I assume this would get loaded into QlikSense Master items?

Has anyone done this?  I would hate to have to type them in one by one as Master Items.

Hi David,

If you think a variable as let/set = 123; thing that you can use the include statement, that you can see in the

Script Syntax and Chart Functions Guide or check Can we import script file into Qliksense?‌ thread.

If you think variable as a master item, you can't achive this from script.

Is this function available to Qlik Sense too? I thought it works only in QlikView.

This is for QlikView, not QlikSense.

Thanks - I will try this and let you know.

Apologies for that, thought it was a Qlikview post.
