Row level commenting in Qliksense

[sujit_nath]

Hi Guys,

I want a feature such that users can go and comment on the charts (I'll start with straight table maybe, then can think about other charts)

Suppose the table is like:

COUNTRY	YoY SALES	COUNTRY HEAD COMMENTS
INDIA	-80 M	Covid Impact
USA	-20 M	Covid, Protests Impact
CHINA	+90 M

The column "Country head comments" must be filled on the dashboard by the users and must be saved as well.

Please help if any such feature or way around is possible.

You can try with write-back extensions. Vizlib has one; there may be some from others available as well you might want to search for.

hi,

you can maintain data in google sheet and shared to user and allow to enter remarks,

then

you call that google sheet into qlik and show as table with comment,

@Ksrinivasan  Thanks for the response.. however to clarify the ques.. I'm looking for something where the user can enter comments on the Qliksense dashboard. and they must be saved at real time.

There is no inbuilt functionality of write back in Qlik Sense.  Tresesco mentioned the VizLib extension that allows writing back to allow data entered and saved. 

You can also check the extension available on the Qlik Garden site  https://developer.qlik.com/garden/5b39f35c906012c8b4c690ca

Hi,

You could consider SenseOps Writeback for this. It allows users to add or edit row-level comments directly in Qlik Sense and save them to a persistent data source.

It also supports editable fields, approvals/workflows, role-based access, and audit/history tracking, which can be useful if multiple users need to review or update the same data.

This should cover the commenting and writeback requirement without needing a separate form or spreadsheet.
