All objects in the Qlik Sense repository database are defined by a Globally Unique Identifier (GUID), which is used to get or set the object information.
Depending on the method used, the GUID in the API call is handled in different ways.
| Method | Body | Return value |
|---|---|---|
| GET |
Get all entities: No GUID is needed. Get one entity: Provide an existing GUID. |
Zero or more entities are returned. |
| POST |
If an empty GUID is provided in the body, it is used by the new entity (unless the provided GUID is already in use). If an empty GUID is not provided in the body, a new GUID is created. |
A new entity is created by the Qlik Sense Repository Service (QRS) and returned. |
| PUT | Provide an existing GUID. | The entity is returned. |
| DELETE | Provide an existing GUID. | No value is returned. |
