Inserting other scripts into load scripts
You can insert scripts, both other scripts created in Qlik Cloud and QVS files, into load scripts in Data load editor and Script. This allows you to reuse scripting content across multiple scripts.
You insert other scripts into your load script from Data sources in your script editor. Inserting the script adds the system variable Must_Include with the definition of the script ID in the case of other scripts or the path to the QVS file. For example, $(Must_Include=lib://DataFiles/test.qvs). For more information on Must_Include, see Include.
Viewing included scripts
Under Included scripts, you can view scripts or QVS files you have inserted that have been successfully included during the last run of Preview data, Load data, or Export data. You can select a script or QVS file to preview the inserted load script.
Included scripts in Script
In the load script, you can click </> after an inserted script to view a preview of the inserted script.
