How to Cache an Access Point Document List

[Andre_Sostizzo]

Access Point is very slow when populating the initial list of applications. Switching categories or refreshing the browser does not help. 

Environment:

QlikView 

Set ForceDocListUpdateOnPageLoad in the Web Server config.xml file.

1. Stop the QlikView WebServer
2. Navigate to C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\WebServer\
3. Open the config.xml file
4. Add or modify the following tags: 
   
   <ForceDocListUpdateOnPageLoad> true </ ForceDocListUpdateOnPageLoad >
   
   (true/false, default true) – if you set this to false, the Access Point will use the cached document list always, unless the user hits F5 or Back to refresh. 
   
   <ClearCachePeriod>600000 </ ClearCachePeriod>
   
   (milliseconds, default 600000 (10 minutes)) – how often the web server clears its cache. If getting the User Documents is a heavy operation and you can live with it being stale for a while (maybe documents are only distributed once per day or something), it can be nice to increase this
