How to trigger Nprinting job with command line/batch file as .nsq files are no longer created in Nprinting 18?

[shrijeeb]

Hi Community,

We have recently upgraded to Nprinting  June 18. Previously we were executing Nprinting jobs by triggering the .nsq files. But as .nsq files are no longer generated in Nprinting June 18, how to trigger the jobs using batch file/command line?

Please advise.

Hi,

The concept of jobs is no present in Qlik NPrinting 17+.

You need to create a custom software (maybe a Python script or similar) that uses Qlik NPrinting APIs https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/September2018/Content/NPrinting/Extending/Intro-Extending.htm
