I wanted to create start and endpoints in QGIS for a Linestring shape file.



I tried using the QChainage plugin but was not useful.



Can some one suggest a tool ?

          If you have QGIS 3.4 you can use Extract specific vertices tool to extract the endpoints by inputting 0, -1 at the vertex indices as you can see below:



          enter image description here



          The tool is located in Processing toolbox -> Vector geometry -> Extract specific vertices tool.



          The input is a polyline composing of several segments



          enter image description here



          Using the above tool with 0,-1 indices provides the endpoints only:



          enter image description here
