Qliksense Governance Dashboard

ravireddyk — Wed, 29 Jan 2025 17:06:43 GMT

Hello,

I want to configure the governance dashboard in qliksense which is not yet released by qlik.

I see that Governance dashboard can be configure by using Node.js.

Any of you have done the Governance dashboard in qliksense

Thanks,

Ravinder

The Governance Dashboard uses data and logs that Qlikview Server generates. Qlik Sense doesn't generate the same data in the same format and logs, but other data. Use the Operations Monitor Qlik Sense app instead.

Ravinder,

I thought about doing this but couldn't get approval from our IT department. You'll need to install node on your Qlik server or export the server certificates to establish a connection. You'll also need to configure the connection in the node config file. The data generating scripts should be good to go.

You'll probably want to automate the running of the node scripts. Not sure how to do that. As I said, I didn't get very far with implementing due to our restrictions. If you can do it though, it seems worth the endeavor. There's a lot useful data in the app.

If you use Qlik Sense Desktop as your dev environment, it's possible to configure the scripts to run against the Desktop. You should read about Qsocks and how that works before you try to set anything up.

Ravinder, Apologies for the late reply. rvr‌‌ owns the Qlik Sense Governance Dashboard project. It is a great tool. It takes a little bit of configuration, but once you have it running the process is smooth and the app generated from the data is AMAZING.

We recently tried the Qlik Branch project and I agree with Jeffrey it is a really nice utility and application, a lot of effort put into it. There are a few items to be aware of if you will use this utility:

1. The node.js code currently uses the npm qsock library which is officially deprecated, it still works on our 3.2 server but I would except another upgrade or two and the API may get out of sync. The project probably needs a port to enigma.js (if the developer reads this I might give it a go and send you a note via github!)

2. There the js2xmlparser calls needed some housekeeping

3. The utility will run off server via node, but you have to make sure you are managing your qps proxy whitelist entries and account access as the API calls use ticket authentication via qsock.

Hope that helps anyone out, pretty clever design to convert the JSON to XML for dashboard loading. Well done!

Does anybody have an "installing the governance app for dummies" guide? Reading through all the git material gives me "broad strokes" and talk of node js, package.json etc. is completely foreign to me.

Aaron, go here: https://github.com/eapowertools/qs-governance-collector. We've taken the Governance Dashboard and wrapped some installer plus ui on it for collection. jg

Jeffrey,

Having downloaded and installed the qs-governance-collector from <GitHub - eapowertools/qs-governance-collector: Collects metadata and parses script logs for Qlik Sense applications for …> I ran into an issue with

metadata extraction and QVD generation. Hopefully this is the right venue to ask this question, if not I would appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction.

The 'Governance QVD Generator.qvf' Script refers to a metadata\userAccess folder (see screenshot below).

My c:\metadata folder is populated with *.xml files, yet the metadata\userAccess folder holds several empty subfolders and no *.xml files.

Said metada\userAccess folder is referenced in the QVD generator script under script tab 'LoopResouresAccessControl', where an inline table lists what should be the subfolders in metadata\userAccess...

since the subfolder contains folder other than the ones listed in the script inline table, and they are all empty, certain 'staging' QVDs are not being generated.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Ami

Ami, best place to go is the issues page for the repository, check if your issue is already logged, and if not log your issue / ask your question. https://github.com/eapowertools/qs-governance-collector/issues Currently working on squashing a lot of bugs so hopefully the one you indicate gets addressed as well. jg

Hi Jeffrey,

Thank you very much. This link is really helpful

Can you please confirm then what are the differences between "Governance Dashboard Collector (qsgc)" and "Governance Dashboard by rvr" ?

The reason is that "gsgc" is very easy for the Qlik developers to install it but when it comes to Governacne Dashboard by rvr, its tough to understand and configure it.

So please suggest the difference and also please confirm if it could cover all the usages of rvr governance dashboard in qsgc as well / or atleast in future?

Thanks,

Santosh.

Hi,

I have been trying to implement Governance Dashboard 2.1.1.0 latest version in Qlik Sense April 2019 version from here https://github.com/eapowertools/qs-governance-dashboard.

I don't see Web app UI properly rendering in IE browser from link. ( Attached the view page I see.)

I am really finding it hard to understand the sequence of actions needed in the Qlik Sense Governance Collector UI to trigger the collect meta data. It seems by trying different ways it generated few XML files in Metadata folder, with suffix as libconnections, loadstatements and fields.xml. I see Runoptions.xml file.

I tried to run script of apps Governance QVD Generator for Qlik Sense.qvf and Governance Dashboard for Qlik Sense.qvf, but they are failing in absence of some files like as mentioned in script error message - Cannot open file: 'lib://qsgc-metadata/qrsUserList.xml' (Native Path: ***

Any help on this will be highly appreciated.

I see this error in the log indicating that QVD generation is failing, not sure how to correct this -
