How to upload a Qlik NPrinting report to SharePoint.

Environment:

 

Resolution

 

NPrinting does not have a specific SharePoint connector.

 

The following workarounds can be applied:

 

1. Distribute a Qlik NPrinting Office report by saving it in the SharePoint folder.

The best way to do this is to:

  • In NPrinting 16 (out of support): set the SharePoint folder as the "Task output folder" in Task > General
  • In NPrinting Supported Versions: Add the SharePoint folder as a destination folder to the NPrinting Publish task. Destination folders are set via the NP WebConsole under
    • "Destination > Folders"

If you do this, the report will be saved directly in the SharePoint folder.

This solution works with NPrinting Service only if the NPrinting service user (the NPrinting Scheduler service domain user in NPrinting 20xx or higher) has full access to the SharePoint folder.

An absolute UNC path is required. See Technet - Access Sharepoint via UNC?


 2. Adding content to SharePoint via e-mail might be a convenient option if your configuration allows it:
