Open App with variable from another app

[amiroh81]

Hello all

I'm fairly new to Sense after several years of using View.
I'm trying to do something like this:
1. Open an APP (APP1) in Sense that has an input variable that can be changed manually and changes the variable I created and you can RELOAD within the APP - I was able to do
2.After that using another button that when clicked opens another APP (APP2) that already exists in the system - I was able to do it using the extension - sense-navigation
3.At the same time, I want the variable that the user defined from the first APP(APP1) to be sent to the second APP (APP2) and enter the value into the variable in the second APP (APP2) and perform a RELOAD -This is where I got stuck.

Any ideas?

Thanks

As far as I know, there is no way to pass a variable value to an app via link (or ODAG, which is what you seem to be emulating here). You would need to use a field rather than a variable if you want to pass the value between apps.

You could support existing ideas for adding variables to ODAG as an option: https://community.qlik.com/t5/Suggest-an-Idea/ODAG-accept-direct-variable-values-instead-of-only-fie...

To work around it, you could try the approach described here, or the actual actual extension: https://github.com/rileymd88/odag-variable (Note: I found that by searching and have not tried it nor am I affiliated with it in any way)
