Setting up Bidirectional replication

This section describes how to set up a Bidirectional replication task in Qlik Replicate.

To set up Bidirectional Task 1:

1. Define a Bidirectional Replication task that replicates data from Endpoint A to Endpoint B.

   Information note

   In a bidirectional replication task, Full Load replication is not enabled by default since it is assumed that both endpoints contain identical tables. If this is not the case (for instance, if Endpoint A contains tables that do not exist in Endpoint B), enable Full Load replication as well.

2. Specify a source and target Loopback prevention table schema in the task settings’ Loopback Prevention tab. For more information about loopback prevention settings, see Bidirectional.
3. Run the task.

To set up Bidirectional Task 2:

1. Define another Bidirectional Replication task that replicates data from Endpoint B to Endpoint A.

2. Specify a source and target Loopback prevention table schema in the task settings’ Loopback Prevention tab. For more information about loopback prevention settings, see Bidirectional.

3. If Full Load was enabled when replicating data from Endpoint A to Endpoint B, you must first wait for the Full Load replication to complete before running the task. Otherwise, run the task immediately.
