Third-party themes and extensions cannot be exported via the user interfaces in Qlik Cloud.
They can, however, be downloaded via public APIs, in the following ways:
- Using Qlik Application Automation - use the extension blocks from the
Qlik Platform Operationsconnector- For general information on how to use this connector, refer to the getting started guide.
- Add a
List Extensionsblock. - Filter the block output to match the name of your extension.
- Add a
Get Extension Archiveblock to retrieve the base64 encoded archive containing the archive. - Use a file storage connector to store the archive to your service of choice, move it to another tenant, version control it, or base64 decode it to convert it back to an archive (online services are available).
- Using the APIs in an active browser session
- Navigate to the extensions view in the management console of your tenant, to ensure you have an active session.
- Navigate to https://tenant.region.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/extensions - this will produce a list of your extensions. Identify the extension you wish to download and copy the
idvalue of that extension. - Navigate to https://tenant.region.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/extensions/{id}/file - replace
{id}with the ID you copied above. Your extension archive will be downloaded. - Review the full API specifications to learn more about extensions and themes.
- Using qlik-cli - there is no native command for extension management, however you can use the raw commands on the APIs listed above to connect and manage extensions.
