Nprinting On-Demand request retention time. How long are On-Demand reports kept in memory?

How many days are On-Demand request coming from Qlik Sense or QlikView kept in memory? Where are they saved?

Is it possible to change this?



Environment:

 

The days NPrinting keeps an On-Demand request in memory depends on a parameter that can be added in the scheduler.config file.

 

Resolution:

 

The NPrinting On-Demand requests (both QlikView and Qlik Sense) are kept in memory in the "C:\ProgramData\NPrinting\ondemand\responses" folder for  some days and then automatically removed:

  •  completed requests remain for 30 days
  • aborted requests and failed requests are kept in memory for 6 days

It is possible to change these values by adding an entry in the "scheduler.config" file that is saved in "C:\Program Files\NPrintingServer\NPrinting\Scheduler":

  1.  To change the days to keep for completed requests, add this tag and specify the number of days:         
    <add key="completed-days-to-keep" value="30" />​
  2. To change the days to keep for aborted requests, add this tag and specify the number of days:
     <add key="aborted-days-to-keep" value="6" />​

 

!Note: NPrinting Installations, system folders and files are limited to the "c drive"  where the installation is performed by default. This point remains documented in each Qlik NPrinting Product Release notes.

@Sonja_Bauernfeind is it possible to change the storage location from C:\ProgramData\NPrinting\ondemand\responses?  We don't want to store the reports on the application drive.
