A Qlik Sense application to get a baseline understanding of how to use load script functions.
For further context and use cases, this project is referenced in our blog.
- Download the QVF file and place it into your default Qlik Sense application folder
- Open Qlik Sense and if done correctly you'll see the 'TechBuilders Script Functions' application
Once you have the application installed, understand the formulas by going to the load script and looking at the functions.
Then move to the front end and see the table for how the function is used.
Hopefully at this point the relationship between the front end and the load script using the '$1' variables is semi-understood. Using load script functions enables standardization and creates additional flexibility from a development perspective. Check out our blog for best practices and additional ways to use the load script functions.
