[Help Wanted] Is there a way to export the Qlik Load Script? #164

Closed aburnsy closed 2 years ago

aburnsy commented 2 years ago

We have roughly 300 apps in our cluster. We need to update some apps which are referencing older versions of scripts we use. I'm wondering is there a way to export all the load scripts to identify the apps we need to update.

The load script can only be accessed via the engine API using websocket, so this is not possible with Qlik-Cli for Windows, however you could use qlik-cli from qlik.dev. There is an example for how to set the script, and getting the script just requires replacing set with get in the command. https://qlik.dev/tutorials/get-started-with-qlik-cli/#add-a-load-script-to-the-app.

You will need to first get connected to the server:

qlik context create qse --server https://localhost --server-type windows
qlik context use qse

Then the command you would use would be as follows:

qlik app script get --app <appId>

Thanks Adam. I had thought that library worked with SaaS only - good to know
