Q&A - Understanding Qlik NPrinting APIs

Q: ­Right now we can only change the quality of the images for a publish task, is it possible to change the image quality on an On Demand report using the API?­
A: No. This API feature is not currently listed. This can currently only be done in an NPrinting Publish Task. See OnDemandRequest


Q: ­Can we execute the On-Demand Add on using the API?­
A: Yes you can execute an On Demand report using NPrinting API's in newer NPrinting versions which contain support for this API feature. See OnDemandRequest


Q: ­How to create GET and POST connections in Qlik Sense and QlikView
A: See the following article: How to create NPrinting GET and POST REST connections

Q: ­Is the Qlik sense 3rd party extension found in Github certified by Qlik ?­
A: No. However, from Nov. 2018 and later versions. a supported version of the NPrinting On Demand component was added to Qlik Sense as a Custom Object. This Qlik Sense for NPrinting On Demand, built in custom object must not be modified in any way.
 
Q: ­Is this authentication based on user logged in? Would it allow for requests from multiple users with varying accesses irrespective of the user logged in?­
A: Yes however, NPrinting and NPrinting On Demand Qlik Sense  component requires Windows NTLM authentication. The Qlik Sense server that NPrinting connects to must use a virtual proxy configured with Windows NTLM. Other authentication methods are NOT supported. See Requirements, Connecting Qlik NPrinting with Qlik Sense
 
Q: ­will there be regular updates to the NP APIs with each new release of QS and NP?  Where will the release notes for the NP API be found?­
A: Any changes in the APIs will be updated in the API reference library. You may find the change of the API version there. And also at the same time, you will find more details about the API change from corresponding NPrinting release notes for each released version of NPrinting. You will find the release note from the same place where you download NPrinting installation packages at qlik.com. See Qlik NPrinting API
