qlik.conf
If you use:
- Remote Data Collector. Go to Windows machine where RDC is installed C:\Program Files (x86)\Metric Insights\Insightd\plugins
- Local Data Collector. Go to machine where MI is installed /opt/mi/datacollector/plugins
Open or create qlik.conf file. With the help of this document you can perform the following operations:
| Variable name | Description |
|---|---|
| server |
Enter server address. If Remote Data Collector runs on the QlikView server then enter 'localhost'; otherwise if it runs on a different machine, enter the QlikView server name (e.g. server=qlikview.metricinsights.com). Leave blank if pulling .qvw documents via the file system |
| image_height |
Enter the height value of email picture in pixels (0-5000) if you want to specify it. |
| image_width |
Enter the width value of email picture in pixels (0-5000) if you want to specify it. |
| imageSize |
This is a Boolean variable (true / false). Enable (or disable) the ability to resize of the picture email. If its value is "True", it is possible to set variables: Image_heigh, Image_width |
| datalocale |
Enter the data locale property (delimiters of decimal fraction). Can be DataLocale.US or DataLocale.EU or null. If EU, the data parses with European type of delimiters (","). If US or null - with standart ("."). |
| obj_id_filter |
Enter IDs of objects to narrow the list of QlikView documents (comma-separated) after download documents. Wild card (*) is allowed. (e.g., *SH-2*, *SH-3*) |
| obj_name_filter |
Enter names of objects to narrow the list of QlikView documents (comma-separated) after download documents. Wild card (*) is allowed. (e.g., Social Media*, demo*) |
| primary_date_format |
Enter date format if you want to teach plugin how to handle it (e.g. primary_date_format=MMM YY) |
| pathToServerFolder |
Enter path to folder with QV documents (e.g. C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\Documents) if you need to specify it. |
| scheme |
Enter URI Scheme to access the QlikView Server (either http or https) |
| multi_server_config |
This is a list of "alias-hostname" pairs for resolving server gotten from QMS API. Here you can specify map of alias-hostname pairs if QlikView installed as a cluster. 1) if it's empty, plugin will try to get doc from main node (for single-server installations) 2) multi_server_config = auto (plugin gets hostname of node where requested doc is stored using Qlik QMS API.) 3) multi_server_config = <internal_node_name>=<external_hostname_or_ip>, <internal_node_name>=<external_hostname_or_ip>, ... - Qlik QMS API returns internal address of node (e.g. multi_server_config = qlikA = qv1.mi.com, qlikB = qv2.mi.com). If plugin works outside local network, it'll be unable to resolve correct ip. In this case need to use map of internal/external names. |
| use_auth_for_qms |
This is a Boolean variable (true / false). Here you can set the possibility of authorization to QMS api. By default use_auth_for_qms=true. |
| path_to_exe |
Enter path to folder exe path of plugin (e.g. path_to_exe=qv\QVPlugin.exe) if you need to specify it. |
| timeout |
Enter time value in sec to increase session timeout time for qlikview plugin to refresh object list (e.g. timeout=600000) |
| qvwFilter |
Used to narrow the list of QlikView documents (comma-separated) before loading of QVW files. Wild card (*) is allowed. (e.g., Social Media*, demo*) |
| objectsInSheets |
Specify the types of QlikView objects to pull data from Sheets (e.g., graph, table, text) |
| objectsInContainers |
Specify the types of QlikView objects to pull data from Containers (e.g., graph, table, text) |
