Getting Started

This package is designed to be the simplest way possible to connect to Qlik.

Prerequisites

Installing


npm i qliksense-api --save

Starting


const qlikapi = require('qliksense-api')

let qlik = qlikapi.createClient({
  key: "./certificates/client_key.pem",  //path to certificates
  cert: "./certificates/client.pem",
  ca: "./certificates/root.pem"
})

QSR

Get /about Path

qlik.getAbout().then((res)=>{
    console.log(res)
})

or Async/Await :

let res = await qlik.getAbout()
console.log(res)

Get Functions:

  • qlik.getApps()
  • qlik.getHealthCheck()
  • qlik.getExecutionResult()
  • qlik.getTaskLog(taskId) // return the last execution log
  • qlik.getReloadTaskToken(taskId, fileReferenceID) //return the execution reload task token
  • qlik.getExeutionLog(reloadTaskToken, taskName) // return the execution log
  • qlik.doReloadTask('taskName') // reload task by name
  • ... More to come

Get QSR Generic Path

You can see the full list of QSR endpoints path here

const path = 'repositoryservice/full'
qlik.getQsr(path).then((res)=>{
    console.log(res)
})

or Async/Await :

const path = 'repositoryservice/full'
let res = await qlik.getQsr(path)
console.log(res)

Post QSR Generic Path

const path = 'task/start/synchronous?name=test'
 qlik.postQsr('path').then((res)=>{
     console.log(res)
 })

QPS

Generating Session

The session solution allows the Qlik Sense Proxy Service (QPS) to use a session from an external system to validate who the user is.

let username =  'userExemple'
let userRepository = 'repositoryExemple'
qlik.generateSession(userRepository, username).then((res)=>{
    console.log(res)
})

or Async/Await :

let username =  'userExemple'
let userRepository = 'repositoryExemple'
let res = await qlik.generateSession(userRepository, username)
console.log(res)

Get Session

let sessionId =  'ed0671860b754b92df7c2e9c6cea4a7f'
qlik.getSession(sessionId).then((res)=>{
    console.log(res)
})

or Async/Await :

let sessionId =  'ed0671860b754b92df7c2e9c6cea4a7f'
let res = await qlik.getSession(sessionId)
console.log(res)

Delete Session

let sessionId =  'ed0671860b754b92df7c2e9c6cea4a7f'
qlik.deleteSession(sessionId).then((res)=>{
    console.log(res)
})

or Async/Await :

let sessionId =  'ed0671860b754b92df7c2e9c6cea4a7f'
let res = await qlik.deleteSession(sessionId)
console.log(res)
