Dynamic DIV-tag integration

Alexander_Thor — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 16:26:21 GMT

With QlikView 11 we introduced a feature with the sexy name DIV-tag integration.

What this really enables us to do is to reference our JavaScript API and integrate QlikView Objects into web solutions with full functionality.

This is huge. With no extra licenses QlikView users around the world can now enjoy QlikView functionality within non .Net solutions, embedded into their ERP or CRM systems. The community loved it but was also a bit concerned that the amount of objects floating around out there would increase the maintenance of QlikView.

A few lines of JavaScript will eliminate that problem for you

Dynamic DIV-tag integration 1.0

Now you have 1 solution to maintain that can serve your entire company with embedded QlikView Objects.

Short version:

You will need:

QlikView Server version 11 installed.

Some sort of web server.

A can of coke and a smile on your face.

NEW: A workbench license.

Installation:

1. Download the sample at: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18211954/Extensions/single.zip

2. If you are running QV Webserver extract the contents to: C:\Program Files\QlikView\Web\

3. Change the script references in single.htm to match your setup.

4. And you are done.

How-to:

The solution accepts input according to the following syntax: http://WebServerUrl/app pool/single.htm?app=your document without qvw&obj=ObjectID

Optional parameters are w and h to set width and height otherwise default to 100%

On my demo system the following URL will generate the chart below:

http://localhost/QlikView/single.htm?app=Vinguiden&obj=CH233&w=200&h=400

NOTE: If you get a no connection error message try adding the .qvw extension to your app variable

This chart has full QlikView functionality. If you for some reason want to disable any interaction with the object, set it to read-only in the QV document.

Hello Alexander,

when i start playing with div-tag integration i've always get a message "No connection". But when i've added ".qvw" for the "app" parameter ("app=your document without qvw&obj=ObjectID"), i got a working solution. So, the "app" parameter should contain application's name including extension, isn't it?

Re: Dynamic DIV-tag integration

Alexander_Thor — Tue, 12 Jun 2012 09:12:47 GMT

Hmm, that is strange. What QV version are you running?

The app parameter is used in the initworkbench method and the avqviews in the DIVs.

These should normally not require a .qvw extension

Re: Dynamic DIV-tag integration

alex_nerush — Tue, 12 Jun 2012 09:36:31 GMT

I'm using QlikViewServer 64-bit Edition (x64) 11.00.11282.0. The authorization is set as "DMS authorization".

Re: Dynamic DIV-tag integration

Alexander_Thor — Tue, 12 Jun 2012 09:43:23 GMT

Strange, same setup as I'm running. Tested it with both IE, Chrome and Firefox and it runs fine on my box.

Oh well, it should work with .qvw extension aswell our jsapi should be able to handle both versions.

Not sure if I should dig more into it after the beatdown you guys gave Sweden last night

You used the phrase "With no extra licenses," but I want to point out that you need a Workbench license in order for this to work.

If you don't have a Workbench license, you will get a "Failed to Authenticate" error, a "No connection" error, or a blank page on the client side in the browser.

On the server side, you will see this message in the QVWS logs:

Warning Failed to get client: WORKBENCH license missing

Just pointing this out so nobody else spends a lot of time troubleshooting their HTML code like I did!

Hey Patrick,

When the feature was released we double and tripple checked with out licensing department around it. The word that came back was that no, you do not need a workbench license and I'am fairly sure I tried it without workbench licneses on a fresh QV11 box,

What version are you running?

I'll reach out internally again and see if anything has changed regarding this.

Re: Dynamic DIV-tag integration

pvintona8 — Wed, 24 Oct 2012 14:22:46 GMT

Thanks for the response, Alexander.

I am using QVS 11.00.11154.0 IR 64-bit Edition.

I'll see if I can find an 11SR1 or 11SR2 instance somewhere to see if I can reproduce the issue there.

In the meantime, can you double check my HTML code to see if I am doing something incorrect? I have tried it with and without the "Qv.InitWorkBench" line and got the same results.

<HEAD>

<BODY>

Hi,

I'am trying to use the sample on our server, but it's not working

First message "Failed to authenticate" followed by two more ones "No connection"

I picked what I suppose to be the version in "QlikView management console"

Product name	QlikView Web Server Settings Service
Client Build Number	11.0.11414.0

The installation is not completely standard as the server root directory is not C:\Program Files\QlikView\Web\

I have checked single.htm javascripts are correctly loaded

On the app side, is there some relative path to specify ? Indeed, changing app name to something fool give the same "crashing" scenario.

Thanks for your attention

This also applies to @Patrick Vinton

So to make a long story short, or atleast semi-short, you are most likely seeing this error due to not having the workbench licenses.

When we first released QV11 we were under the impression that leveraging our JSApi would be free of charge.

However after a few back and forth with our pricing department it turns out you DO need the workbench license to interact with our JSApi from outside of QlikView.

I'll update my initial posting to reflect this since it's just off the press

We have workbench, so I manage to make it work. Just needed to init workbench accordingly to our settings.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/QvAjaxZfc/htc/QvAjax.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
    Qv.InitWorkBench({ View: 'QVFile', Host: 'Qvs@hostname', Anonymous: 'true' });
</script>
</head>
<body>
    <div>
        <div class="QvFrame" avqview="QVFile" avq="object:.Document\OBJ_ID" id="Document\OBJ_ID" style="width:600px;height:400px;">

Hi Patrick,

Isn't the issue in your example a cross-site scripting problem? You fetch the main page from one server, and then try to run some JavaScript on it which comes from another server -> most browsers don't like that very much.

(At least, that's what I'm guessing from the 'http://192.168.0.41/' in the source URL for QvAjax.js.)

This setup seems to match the '3-tier scenario' (p.39) or '2-tier scenario - WorkBench Web Site on Own Machine' (p.40) in the WorkBench Reference Manual. In both cases you'll need a proxy page on the same webserver that serves your HTML page, which behind the scenes forwards the requests to the QlikView WebServer on another system.

You'll end up with something like:

[Browser] -> [webserver 1: HTML page and Proxy.aspx] -> [webserver 2: QvWebServer]

Regards,

Martijn ter Schegget

The Implementation Group

PS: Another issue you might run into: the NTLM protocol will support passing credentials from a webbrowser to a webserver (1 hop), but not passing credentials from a webbrowser via one webserver to a second webserver (2 hops).

I have some problems with DIV-tag integration. It doesn't work. Can you help me find the problem?

This is my code:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="/QVAJAXZfc/htc/QvAjax.js"></script>
        <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
            Qv.InitWorkBench({View: 'Sales.qvw', Host: 'Local'});
        </script>
    </head>

    <body>
<div>
        <div class="QvFrame" avqview="Sales.qvw" avq="object:.Document\CH02" id="Document\CH02" style="width: 100%; height: 100%;"></div>
     </div>
   </div>
</body>
</html>

I am using QVS 11.00.11271.0 SR1 64bit-edition (64x) and IE 10.0.9200.16635.

This is my QVW http://zalil.ru/34644010.

Thank you for attention.

I'm not sure ie10 is yet supported.
You may try within ie10 to hit F12, and switch browser mode to ie9 ?

Try with another recent browser (firefox, chrome, ...)

Re: Dynamic DIV-tag integration

Fri, 19 Jul 2013 11:10:46 GMT

Thanks, but i have tried ie9, chrome and firefox, and there is a same problem.

Re: Dynamic DIV-tag integration

alex_nerush — Fri, 19 Jul 2013 11:19:12 GMT

you need to have qlikview workbench license (at the server)

Re: Dynamic DIV-tag integration

Alexander_Thor — Fri, 19 Jul 2013 11:21:21 GMT

Do you have a workbench license?

Your license info should read WORKBENCH=YES

Kind Regards

How can we integrate more than one object?

your http://localhost/QlikView/single.htm?app=Vinguiden&obj=CH233&w=200&h=400 shows only one object in the page.

i tried even below from this thread to display multiple but no luck.. I have QVSEE & Work Bench License. At least your "single.htm" concept is working but below is not working at all. do i have to save below html file some where? i have saved in my desktop and opening locally though firefox/chrome.

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

<head>

Qv.InitWorkBench({

View: 'Sales Compass',

Host: 'QVS@local'

});

</script>

</head>

<style>

.QvInlineObject

{

position:relative;

margin-left:10px;

margin-right:10px;

float:left;

}

</style>

<body>

</body>

</html>
