QDF - QVC.ListFiles - Native,Absolute and Relative Paths problems

Good Morning

I'm starting develop in QlikSense and I found QDF and QVC very interesting

Performing some tests, I found a problem with the function qvc.ListFiles using absolute or relative paths, not so when I use a native connection to a folder. The drawback is that with the native connection to the folder I do not work other functions such as:

FileExtension

FileBaseName

Example Using Native Conection

Problems con FileExtension / FileBaseName

My Files.PNG

When I absolute paths , the table is never generated and no error or inconvenience is reported.

When I use relative paths, the following error occurs:

Error.PNG

I already appreciate any help

regards

Eber

Hi Eber, relative path does not work in Qlik Sense as there is no Qlik application to be relative against, thats why we recommend using the containers and associated global variables as.starting point. You can also try the built in DoDir if you like that command gives you an output table with most of the needed file/folder info out of the box. Regards Magnus
