Commands to start tasks without using QV management console #53

Hi,

Could you please list set of commands for starting list of tasks in QvMC. I am looking for some automated way of starting tasks without using Qv Management console.

Or can anyone suggest what could be the best way to achieve this using powershell scripts ?

What you want to use is the EDX facility, which is not part of QVC. It's part of the QlikView product. Doc here, including an exe you can download to start tasks from the command line. https://community.qlik.com/docs/DOC-2650

@RobWunderlich -

The below example shows reloading of QV data, i.e reloading of task “example.qvw”.

I just wanted to know, whether Reloading of task from command line & Starting a task from QV console(Right click on task -> Start) are same ?

Example: “C:\Program Files\QlikView\qv.exe" "C:\qlikview_docs\example.qvw" /R”

if not, Please let me know what is the EDX commands for following actions

Its quite urgent.! Your help is much appreciated.

I don't believe you can do command triggers straight out of the box in QlikView. You will need an application that transforms your commands to QlikView API. Check out Trigger QV Task using command line arguments for an how to on the project Rob mentioned earlier. The qv-edx-trigger is a github protect you also could look into.

Hello, This question is not related to this QVC project. A better place to ask this question is the Qlik community https://community.qlik.com/welcome
