QVD generation with Qlik Sense

[Vitali]

Hi there,

I want to learn about creating and using QVD files with Qlik Sense but I'm unsure as to where to start. 

I understand the basic idea, that a line in the Load script can generate the QVD files which can be then used as a source in another Qlik Sense report (reading about 'Buffer' is on my to-do list for today).  However, I'm unsure as to where to start from, what's the QVD equivalent of 'Hello World' -  does anyone know of a video or short file that shows this at the basic level?

Thank you in advance

Hi Vitali,
This YouTube video walks you through the steps of SQL -> Sense -> QVD

There's also a write up on their use and purpose in Qlik's help pages

Thanks,
