Sometimes, the best solutions are not the most obvious ones. 😉

If you want to create a 100% transparent button in Qlik, here's a little trick that involves tweaking the button's properties directly.

Follow these steps:

- Add a Layout Container to your sheet.

- Add two buttons inside the container.

- Activate Options / Developer mode.

- Set any background color for one of the buttons.

- Right-click the button and select Open Developer.

- Go to Properties and look for the following section:

"background": {
    "useColorExpression": false,
    "color": {
        "index": 9,
        "color": "#a16090",
        "alpha": 1
    }
}

- Now, change the color and alpha values to:

"background": {
    "useColorExpression": false,
    "color": {
        "index": 9,
        "color": "#000000",
        "alpha": 0.00001
    }
}

🎉 And that's it! Enjoy your fully transparent button!

A little unconventional? Definitely.
Effective? Absolutely!

Sometimes, knowing where to tweak things makes all the difference in Qlik.

Hi every one,

I would like to migrate Jobs from TALEND ADMINISTRATION CENTER (TAC) to TALEND MANAGEMENT CONSOLE (TMC) using Qlik Talend® Cloud migration toolkit.

I have access to TAC and I know I must have access to TMC with administrator previleges.

I wa wondering if someone has already used the Qlik Talend® Cloud migration toolkit and if so, I wonder if I can get some pointers on how to go about it.

Thank you,
Rui

Hello Qlik Community,

I'm currently experiencing a connection issue in Talend Studio V8 (Talend Cloud Data Management Platform – R2025-12).

While working on my Talend job, a pop-up message suddenly appears:

"Network Issue Occurred – Meet network issue during connecting to server, do you want to retry?"

It also provides an option to set the connection timeout (currently set to 500 seconds).

I'm signed in to Talend Cloud (Asia Pacific on AWS), and the issue occurs while working in Talend Studio. Even after increasing the connection timeout, the connection issue persists.

I would like to ask the community:

1. Is there currently an ongoing issue, service interruption, or maintenance affecting Talend Cloud connectivity?

2. Has anyone encountered this particular network connection error recently?

3. Could this be related to Talend Cloud server availability, network connectivity, authentication, or a problem with the Studio configuration?

4. What troubleshooting steps or configuration changes would you recommend to resolve this issue?

I would appreciate any insights, suggestions, or solutions from anyone who has experienced the same problem.

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Hi,

We have QlikView Server and QlikView Desktop installed on a Windows Server 2022 machine, which we access via Remote Desktop.

Earlier this year, I upgraded our QlikView installation from May 2023 to September 2025 SR1. After the upgrade, I noticed that QlikView Desktop had become extremely slow and unresponsive.

When QlikView Desktop is started, the menus and the application itself initially seem to work normally. However, as soon as I open a QlikView document, the application becomes very sluggish. On AccessPoint everything works fine.

For example:

- Clicking the QlikView > About menu can take 2–4 seconds before anything happens.
- Right-clicking an object on a report can take several seconds before the context menu appears.
- Scrolling in list boxes is very jerky and noticeably delayed.
- In general, there is a significant delay between clicking something and QlikView responding.

At the time, I did not have time to investigate the issue further.

Today I uninstalled QlikView Desktop and installed the May 2023 version again. The performance immediately returned to normal. When clicking objects or menus in a QlikView document, everything responds almost instantly.

I then upgraded QlikView Desktop to May 2024 SR1, and the performance was still normal.

After that, I upgraded to September 2025 IR, and the performance problem immediately returned.

So far, my testing looks like this:

- May 2023: Good performance
- May 2024 SR1: Good performance
- September 2025 IR: Very slow / significant UI delays
- September 2025 SR1: Very slow / significant UI delays
- September 2025 SR2: Very slow / significant UI delays

I have also disabled the antivirus temporarily, but this did not make any difference.

Has anyone else experienced similar QlikView Desktop performance or UI responsiveness issues with the September 2025 releases?

Background:
1. Qlik Sense Core-Based License: Embedded Qlik Charts and Dashboards on their website (mashups).
2. Current Web Frontend:
- Mashups
- RequireJS v2.3.6
- NuxtJS v2
- Capability APIs v1.8 (Qlik Sense API)

Questions:
1. Can the website be developed to use the Visual Exploration menu on the customer’s website? (Images from customer as attached)
2. If yes, is it necessary to write additional functions? What are the steps involved?
3. If not, what APIs are currently in use, or which ones can be recommended to enable the use of the Visual Exploration menu?

Hi everyone,

We are experiencing an OAuth 2.0 authentication issue when trying to connect Qlik Cloud Analytics to Salesforce using the Salesforce connector from Add Data.

A new Salesforce External Client App was created following Salesforce's recent security changes.

According to Salesforce's updated security requirements, PKCE is mandatory for newly created applications, and the option to disable it is locked.

However, the Qlik documentation instructs us to disable PKCE as part of the connection setup.

We attempted to configure the Salesforce Callback URL using both:

https://connector.qlik.com/auth/oauth/v2.htm

https://connector.qlik.com/auth/oauth/v3.htm

Both attempts failed during authentication, resulting in the following errors:

redirect_uri_mismatch

OAUTH_APPROVAL_ERROR_GENERIC

We would appreciate hearing from anyone who has encountered a similar issue or has successfully established a Salesforce OAuth 2.0 connection in Qlik Cloud Analytics under the new PKCE requirements.

Thanks in advance for sharing your experience!
