There are odbc and jdbc drivers available for Spark, so it's possible to load data in Qlik Sense. There might also be a Qlik Connector for Spark, but I haven't heard of one. This blog post indicates that Qlik has worked with Databricks on combining Qlikview and Spark. rbecher‌‌ probably knows more about getting data from Spark.

You can download the Databricks SparkSQL ODBC driver here:

Or do you want the other way 'round, getting Qlik Sense data into Spark context? I'm elaborating a Java implementation for this at the moment to get Qlik Sense data used in Data Science notebook apps like Zeppelin
