List available apps

Overview

List all available apps by using the GetDocList method.

When running Qlik Sense (i.e in server mode):

The apps are located in C:\ProgramData\Qlik\Sense\Apps.

If Qlik Sense has not been installed under ProgramData when in server mode, the app files are located under <installation_directory>\Qlik\Sense\Apps.

When running Qlik Sense Desktop:

The apps are located in C:\Users\<user name>\Documents\Qlik\Sense\Apps.

Example

Prerequisites:

The following apps are present in the directory %userprofile%\Documents\Qlik\Sense\Apps:

Golf Quest
Tutorial

1. List the apps. The handle of the request is -1 since the GetDocList method applies at global level.

The client sends:

{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "GetDocList", "handle": -1, "params": [] }

The engine returns:

{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "result": { "qDocList": [

{ "qDocName": "Golf Quest.qvf", "qConnectedUsers": 0, "qFileTime": 42038.517281974782, "qFileSize": 6815744, "qDocId": "C:\\Users\\smu\\Documents\\Qlik\\Sense\\Apps\\Golf Quest.qvf", "qMeta": {}, "qTitle": "Golf Quest", "qThumbnail": {} },

{ "qDocName": "Tutorial.qvf", "qConnectedUsers": 0, "qFileTime": 42038.5169998013, "qFileSize": 3145728, "qDocId": "C:\\Users\\smu\\Documents\\Qlik\\Sense\\Apps\\Tutorial.qvf", "qMeta": { "description": "" }, "qLastReloadTime": "2015-02-03T12:22:01+01:00", "qTitle": "Tutorial", "qThumbnail": { "qUrl": "/media/0/8a20ea63-75b0-4790-b50d-d4f934c58745/Qlik_default_flower.png" }
