Create one qlikViewfile server copy and make other laptop/desktop connect to it with out making connections or install qlikview in it

emyemyemy — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

I created my Qlikview file in my 2008 R2 server .

I can connect and open same file from other laptop/desktop but only if I set the necessary connections and qlikview should be installed

I want to open my file from my laptop or any others with out making the connections or install the qliqview !

Is that possible or is there a qlikViewFile.Exe to use like in other APPs ,or is there a way to get a least an image about the real qlikviewfile to read only !

I hope it's clear ,

Thank you for any help and attention .

PS: - I'm using MySQL Connector

- A button to show my qliqviewfile set in C# APP

I think what you want isn't possible and the nearest approach to your description would be to make the applications available within the access point and then you could access them with each modern browser (depending on your used security directly or after a VPN login to your intranet) - and of course you will need a valid licence for it.

There is no free QlikView Document Reader (like for example the free Acrobat Reader). Every user that wants access to a QlikView BI document needs to have a client license, either for QV Desktop or for the AccessPoint.

The AccessPoint is also part of a Qlik product called QlikView Server. The server exists in different versions, all tailored to match specific requirements and situations. QlikView server is intended to serve QlikView documents in ReadOnly mode to multiple networked end-users using nothing more than a standard browser.

QlikView server is only available in licensed editions (no PE version).
