Connect to qlik sense using python

Hi everyone,

I just joined the community and was looking for some help.

I am trying to connect to qlik sense using python script just like sqlalchemy library to connect with postgres.

currently i have qlik sense desktop and I have a trial cloud account. I couldn't find a resource that I can follow along. Is there anyone who managed to connect to qlik sense, extract and upload data using python. would really appreciate any help

Also another question do we develop in desktop and publish to cloud like power bi? would be awesome if anyone can share some insights to this?

Thank alot

Hello Yohannes,

You can connect to Qlik Sense using Python by using the Qlik Engine API. There is a Python example available on the Qlik Community website that shows how to call the Qlik Sense Engine API using the websocket-client module. You can also use the qlikconnect library, which is a Python library used to interact with Qlik Sense through the Qlik Engine API via WebSocket as can be found here.
