QVDs form a crucial part of many Qlik implementations, and are an ideal way of persisting data in both Sense and QlikView. What you may not be aware of though is there is an XML header to these files containing useful information. This post explores this header, and has free downloads to load them into Sense and QlikView. […]
One of our most popular Qlik Downloads is the Data Profiler we produced for use with QlikView. This post shows how you can produce a Qlik Sense Data Profiler using the same techniques. […]
One of the neat features in Qlik View that has not found it’s way into Qlik Sense is the Cycle Group. Alternative Dimensions are nice, but only affect one visualisation at a time. Here is how you can create a cross-visualisation cycle. […]
This snappily titled feature, found in the Dev Hub, actually provides a very simple way to embed Sense objects in web pages. We have just used it on one of our marketing pages. This article describes how you can use it also. […]
You may (or may not) be aware that you can drag a QlikView app into Qlik Sense Desktop Hub. Did you know that you can also drag a Qlik Sense app into the same space? Read on to find out more. […]
This week saw the 10th Qlik Dev Group in London. It was notable not only for the first non-Qlik based presentation, from the wonderful Nadieh Bremer, but also the first public appearance of VizLib. In my opinion, what VizLib are bringing to market is about to bring about a major shift in Qlik Sense use, and it all starts now. […]
One of the techniques that I often use in QlikView is having dynamic dimensions and expressions working off of toggle buttons. This gives more flexibility than cycle expressions and cycle groups alone – particularly when you want to affect a number of charts at the same time. In QlikView this is straight forward, but in Qlik Sense it is less obvious, but this quick recipe shows how to do it. […]
It is that time of year again when Qlik announce their list of the people that go above and beyond in their advocacy of the Qlik platform. I’m pleased to have made the list for another year, along with some other great people. […]
At the beginning of last year I blogged on the differences between QlikView and Qlik Sense, using Lego as a metaphor. Returning to that theme I am looking at how things are progressing as Qlik Sense is maturing as a product, and more APIs are being exposed. […]
Set Analysis is a powerful set of syntax which is widely used in QlikView and Qlik Sense applications, but I find that many developers are unaware one of the most useful functions. Here I explain how to use it. […]
