initialProperties property

initialProperties()

Property used to specify the properties your object should have when first created. Can be defined as hyper cube (qHyperCubeDef) or as a list object (qListObjectDef).

You also set up all custom properties and assign your custom properties default values.

The maximum number of cells (qWidth * qHeight) allowed in an initial data fetch is 10,000. If you want to retrieve additional data, you need to retrieve it in chunks using the getData method call in the Qlik Sense Backend API.

Examples

Example: An example using a hyper cube

initialProperties : {
	qHyperCubeDef : {
		qDimensions : [],
		qMeasures : [],
		qInitialDataFetch : [{
			qWidth : 2,
			qHeight : 50
		}]
	}
}

Example: An example that uses a list object and also defines some custom properties

initialProperties : {
	qListObjectDef : {
		qShowAlternatives : true,
		qFrequencyMode : "V",
		qInitialDataFetch : [{
			qWidth : 2,
			qHeight : 50
		}]
	},
	fixed : true,
	width : 25,
	percent : true,
	selectionMode : "CONFIRM"
}
