Instant Qlik Sense Application Changes in 2022

A few years ago I created the Instant Sense Application, a template application with twelve sheets of analysis, which allows me to load in any data source and roll it out at a client. To enable any Sense user to be able to do the same I made the application free to download from our website. The application evolves as new features are required and when Qlik brings in new features to Sense itself. This posts rolls up some of the changes in the past year or so. […]

Use IFTTT and Webhooks to Send Data from Qlik Sense

Webhooks are a glue that can hold many different services together. This post shows how they can be used to call IFTTT from the Qlik load script, which then opens up a whole world of possibilities, such as writing to a Google Sheet. […]

Instant Qlik Sense Application

Over the years I’ve gathered a number of bits of code that I have reused, across both QlikView and Sense. Something that is always helpful is allowing users to pick expressions and/or dimensions in their applications. Recently I decided to pull the most useful techniques into a single app, which you can download and use. This post introduces the QI Instant Sense Application and describes a bit about how it works.

Netgear Router Logs in Qlik Sense

When my previous router went pop I replaced it with a Netgear R7000P. When I wanted to check it was totally secured I found that the logs were less than helpful. Naturally I turned to Qlik Sense for help. The app I created is available to download and this post describes how to set this up for your own Netgear router. This entire interactive view of your logs can be built using only free components. […]

Sense Touchscreen Mode – Coming Soon

Sense was rebuilt from the ground up to have a modern interface, and mobile was at the heart of that. The touchscreen interface was a key part of that design. However, with most laptops now having touchscreens Sense did not distinguish between a tablet and a laptop. Until now. […]

How to Build a Cycle Group in Qlik Sense

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. […]

VizLib – The Missing Piece In Your Sense Implementation?

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. […]

How To Create Variable Toggle Buttons in Qlik Sense

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. […]

Qlik Sense APIs, Mash-Ups and Lego

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. […]
