Export multiple modules into unique file
As a Model Builder I want to create a Process to trigger multiple Export actions at once, each export linked to a different module.

Labeling import prompt for end users
With the current import process, when users are prompted for files, it simply says 'Upload a file for input into [insert module name(s)]'. It would be helpful if we could associate which file is used for which action as the end user selects the file. Example: uploading 2 files into the same module, with different…

Automated version creation
Hi, I am trying to allow non-admins to create versions in a model using AN connect. The idea is for Anaplan connect to import a custom versions list into the native versions. The issue is that versions created in this way have access set to None by default. In contrast, when you add versions manually, your default access…

Extracting Data From Anaplan With Qlik
Qlik has two data analytics tools—the older one, QlikView, and the modern one, Qlik Sense. They both share similar scripting and the same data files. Data extracted with QlikView can be used by Qlik Sense and vice versa. Many enterprises still rely on QlikView and the QlikView Publisher to handle data reloads while they…
add processId, actionId, fileId as columns in Settings (for API development)
This will speed up API development and runtime both. The API requires ID's as parameter, however Anaplan UI shows only the Name. When using API for sending data to Anaplan or triggering a process we now use the name for searching the id. Currently this requires additional looping in our API framework. If we know from the…
