Overview

Delete an app by using the DeleteApp method.

Using Qlik Sense Server

In addition to being removed from the repository, the app is removed from the directory as well:

<installation_directory>\Qlik\Sense\Repository\Apps

The default installation directory is ProgramData.

Using Qlik Sense Desktop

The app is deleted from the directory %userprofile%\Documents\Qlik\Sense\Apps.

Example

The goal is to delete an app from the Qlik Sense repository, while working in server mode.

The handle of the request is -1 since the method DeleteApp applies at the global level.

The identifier of the app to be removed from the Qlik Sense repository is 38d255c5-6a88-4550-b835-1aa5805a601e.

The client sends:

{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "DeleteApp", "handle": -1, "params": [ "38d255c5-6a88-4550-b835-1aa5805a601e", "" ] }

The engine returns:

{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "result": { "qSuccess": true } }

The app is removed ( "qSuccess": true).
