From QlikView to QlikSense

Hi all,

I've build a document with qlikview and now I want to create a qlik sense document with the same data and schema.

To do so, this is how I proceeded:

I've created a new application with qlikSense:

Capture.PNG

I clicked on it and then drag and droped my QV document in here:

Capture.PNG

I found out that all the data and schema were imported and thus I was able to create something.

The thing is:

let's suppose my QlikView source document is named test.qvw, when I drag it into the QlikSense, it becomes test.qvf.

but when I try open the new test.qvf file in the sense, the hub is opened and I don't find my test.qvf in it.

I have to always drag the test.qvf in the "carrefour_finale" application to see the dashboard I've created !

But, I want to make my new test.qvf available in the Qliksense server. If I'll put it as it is now, nothing will show up !

How should I proceed? Thank you all !

If yes,

1) Zip your extension and copy it to the server on the desktop for exemple.

2) Open QMC and go to the extensions tab.

3) import your extension by specifying the file path of the zipped file.

The zip file will be unzipped and the extension added in the repository

Extension?

I don't think so.. In my QVW file, I had a geoqlik extension but I did not used it.

I had a qvw file, with which I've created the qvf file. I then putted it in the server and opened the hub.

It's supposed to appear like this:

but instead this is the way it is:

Ok,

Verify the version of Qlik Sense Desktop on your post and the version of Qlik Sense Server.

It seems that the version of qlik sense server is slower than the version on your post.

Yes, I also thought about that ! I'll try to upgrade the server version and see what happens.

Thank you Sébastien !

What if we only have Qlik-sense server and not Qlik-sense Desktop?

still is it possible to convert qvw to qvf ?

Thanks

No, but Qlik Sense Desktop is free, you just have to download it 😉

To convert a qvw to a qvf a qliksense desktop version is enough.

Hi Fatoux,

How can I get the .QVW file path after conversion a qlikview to qliksense application.

Hello,

I've done as you explained in your comment, set up libb// connections, most of the data seems to load fine, however I get error message perhaps regarding master calender:

 
The following error occurred:
Unexpected token: '{', expected one of: '(', 'ZTestw_z', 'OPERATOR_PLUS', 'OPERATOR_MINUS', 'not', 'bitnot', 'LITERAL_NUMBER', ...
 
The error occurred here:
let vMinMonth = min(>>>>>>{<<<<<<<[local word for Year]={''}>} [Local word for Month])
 
These are the variables with errors: 

let vMinMonth = min({<Metai={'$(vMaxYear)'}>} Mėnuo);

let vMinDay = min({<Metai={'$(vMaxYear)'},Mėnuo={'>=$(vMinMonth)<=$(vMaxMonth)'}>} Diena);

let vMaxMonth = max({<Metai={'$(vMaxYear)'}>} Mėnuo);

let vMaxDay = max({<Metai={'$(vMaxYear)'},Mėnuo={'>=$(vMinMonth)<=$(vMaxMonth)'}>} Diena);

 

Metai = [local word for Year];

Mėnuo = [local word for Month]

Diena = [local word for Day]

 

The whole script and variables were working perfectly in Qlikview but somehow I cannot understand what's wrong with it in Sense. 

Could somebody help on this issue?
