Scramble fields in Sense app

Scramble one or more fields in an app using Qlik Sense’s internal scrambling feature.

Note:

  • If more than one field is to be scrambled, the indidivudal field names should be separated by the character or string specified in the --separator option.
  • The entire list of field names (the --fieldname option) should be surrounded by double quotes.
  • A new app with the scrambled data will be created. Specify its name in the --newappname option.
