I use the QSDA API to export the collections I need, unzip them and use a Qlik Sense script to load it again. Does anyone have a template for such an app?  
Also, the “Fields.csv” has no reference to the Table, in which the field is in. Was this forgotten?

I figured out that TableFields.csv has the links between Fields and Tables.

I built a simple load script as a POC, but did not go so far as to turn it into a useful model.

Has anyone developed an Qlik Template?

Hi Greg,  
Here is a sample load script that works with QSDA 2.5 “Export Analysis to CSV files” output. This sample was supposed to ship in the /resources folder of 2.5 but it didn’t make it. It will be included in the next service release.

I’ve also seen that some customers are using the Qlik REST connector to load directly from QSDA using the API.
