It depends only on requests and provides both a Python API (with classes like QRS and QPS) and a command-line interface for common operations like exporting applications, managing users, retrieving security rules, and duplicating apps.\n\nThe package is designed for administrators and automation engineers who need to script Qlik Sense management tasks. It supports authentication via exported client certificates or Windows NTLM credentials. However, the project has been abandoned since October 2020\u2014no updates, security patches, or compatibility fixes have been released in over five years, which is a significant risk if you depend on it for production automation.","worth_installing":"Yes, but only if you are managing a Qlik Sense deployment that has not been updated since 2020 and you understand the risks of using abandoned software. The package is lightweight and permissively licensed, but the lack of maintenance means no security updates, no compatibility fixes for newer Python or Qlik versions, and no support for emerging authentication methods. If your Qlik Sense environment is actively maintained or you need long-term reliability, evaluate whether the vendor's official APIs or a maintained fork would be safer."},"id":"qsapi","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/qsapi","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/qsapi.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/qsapi/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2020-10-22","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"qsAPI","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"qsAPI - a client for Qlik Sense QPS and QRS interfaces"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":178579,"position":10189,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2.2.0"}
