Binary Load? #19

Closed rvaheldendaten closed 6 years ago

rvaheldendaten commented 6 years ago

Hi!

In more recent documentation Qlik states that BINARY Load on Server Apps is not supported on Qlik Sense Enterprise Servers (Even it has worked in Qlik Sense 3.x).

"You cannot use binary to load data from an app on the same Qlik Sense Enterprise deployment by referring to the app ID. "

https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense/February2018/Subsystems/Hub/Content/Scripting/ScriptRegularStatements/Binary.htm

I wonder if I can use this connector as a replacement for the Binary Load? Can I do a single statement to retrieve all tables? So even when the underlying datastructure changes, I would like to have all tables loaded without changing the script.

Thx, Roland

Hi,

This is not a good binary load statement replacement. It is more designed to fetch an aggregated view of multiple tables with aggregated expressions into a new app. For binary load, I think you can use our Powershell connector, make an automatic export of the app and use this again as binary datasource.

Bye Konrad

Hi Konrad! Thanks for the fast response. That's what I thought so too.

Really wondering why no one is missing the BINARY Load in Qlik Sense. I always thought it is a nice seperation between Datamodellers and Business People.

Hi, I don’t know why only some users miss that. I think the main point is the not solved load of master items,,, in this scenarios. I will close that issue.
