Some of the discoveries from using this app include: data files that had gone stale for extended periods without anyone noticing, inconsistent reload cadences across spaces, and specific files that were frequently at risk of staleness — insights that were previously only surfaced reactively when end users reported outdated data.

The app eliminates the need for manual file freshness checks, giving administrators an always-current view of data health across the tenant. Automated critical-staleness alerts ensure that stale data is caught and addressed before it reaches end users.

Primary users are Qlik Cloud System Administrators responsible for data operations and reload management. The app is monitored on a regular basis as part of routine data quality oversight and is referenced immediately when automated staleness alerts are triggered across any Qlik Cloud environment.

The app sources metadata directly from the Qlik Cloud tenant API, capturing file timestamps and space assignments at each reload. Staleness classification logic evaluates file age against configurable thresholds, enabling administrators to prioritize remediation by severity and track freshness trends across spaces over time.

Some of the discoveries from using this app include: permission changes that occurred without a formal access request, role discrepancies between users who should have equivalent access, and visibility into exactly when elevated permissions were granted or removed — detail that was previously unavailable without manual tenant reviews.

onGuard has shifted client's access governance from reactive to proactive, giving administrators and compliance stakeholders a live audit trail without manual effort. Permission anomalies that previously went undetected between formal reviews are now surfaced automatically and classified by severity.

Primary users are Qlik Cloud System Administrators and compliance stakeholders responsible for access governance. The app is accessed on-demand for audit reviews and permission verification, and is expected to be referenced regularly as part of ongoing security monitoring across the Qlik Cloud tenant.

onGuard sources its data directly from the Qlik Cloud tenant API, capturing space membership and role assignments across all users at each reload. Change detection is performed using hash-based delta comparison between reload cycles, with severity classification logic applied to categorize each permission event — enabling pattern analysis across users, spaces, and time.

In this blog post, I will review some data flow processors that can be used to prepare your data in a data flow. Let’s start by quickly reviewing what a data flow is. In Qlik Cloud Analytics, a data flow is a no-code experience that visually allows you to prepare your data with drag and drop capabilities. It is intuitive and easy to use and does not require the user to have scripting experience. Data flow processors, along with sources and targets, are used to build a data flow. Each processor handles a specific data transformation task. Here you will find a full list of the data flow processors available.
This blog will touch base on a few processors to familiarize you with how they work and how easy they are to use. To begin, a data flow must first be created. There is more than one way to do this. From the Qlik Cloud Analytics catalog, click on the + Create new button and select Data flow or navigate to Prepare data from the menu and click on the add Data flow button at the top of the page.

Data flow
Once you name the new data flow, navigate to the Editor.
On the left, there are sources, processors and targets. The source is the data input, the processors are the data transformation types, and the targets are data outputs. Before we can look at the processors, we need to select our input data from the data catalog or a connection. Once that is in place, we can begin to explore the processor options. There are several data flow processors – too many to review in this blog but I will review three of the them - the Filter processor, the Join processor and the Unpivot processor.
Filter Processor
The filter processor filters data based on a condition. A processor can be added to the data flow canvas by dragging and dropping the processor onto the canvas or by clicking on the menu in the data source and selecting Add processor.
If you drag and drop the processor onto the canvas, you will need to connect the dots between the input and processor. If you add it from your data source menu, the dots will automatically be connected for you.
Each processor has a properties panel where the processor can be configured. In this example, let’s use the filter to select employees who live in the United States. To do this, first select the field to process – Country. There is an option to apply a function but one is not needed in this example. The operator will be equal, and the Value will be United States. Once the properties are entered, click the Apply button to save.
At the bottom of the page, I can preview the script (matching and not matching records) for the filter processor I just applied and see a preview of the data.
From the filter processor menu, there are a few options for my next step as seen below.
Add matching target will add a target to the data flow for the records that match the Country = United States filter. Add non-matching target will add a target to the data flow for the records that do not match the Country = United States filter. Matching and non-matching processors can also be added. For this example, I will add a matching target and in the properties panel, I will select the space, the extension (.qvd, .parquet, .txt or .csv) and the name of the target file. Like the sources, the target can be a data file or connection. Once I click Apply in the properties panel, I will see a message at the top right indicating that my flow is valid and ready to be run. Running the data flow will grab my Employees dataset, filter the data by country and store the results in a QVD named US Employess.
I now have a data file that has been transformed and prepared for use.
Join Processor
Now, let’s look at how we can join two data inputs into one data output. To do this, two data inputs are required. In the example below, ARSummary and ARSummary-1 are the two data inputs.
In the properties panel of the join processor, the join type is selected and the fields that should be used to link the two tables are selected. You can learn more about joins here. Once the target is added, the data flow can be run, and the result will be a single table with the records from the ARSummary table and the associated records from the ARSummary-1 table.
Unpivot Processor
If you are familiar with scripting, the unpivot processor is like a crosstable load. It allows you to rearrange a table so that column data becomes row data. It can transform a table like this:
To this:
Here is an example data flow with the unpivot processor:
In the properties panel of the unpivot processor, there are only a few settings to update. The first is the unpivot fields. Here is where the fields that we want to unpivot are selected. In this example, we want the year to be stored as row level data so we select them all.
The Attribute field name is the name we want to give to the unpivoted fields – in this case Year. The Value field name is the name of the data that is associated with the fields we are unpivoting – in this examples Sales.
After applying the changes and running the data flow, we will have a table transformed based on our specifications without any code.
In this blog post, we touched upon three of the many processors that can be used in a data flow. Note that a data flow can have many sources, processors and targets – it all depends on your needs. The visual interface of a data flow makes it easy to prepare your data without any code in an appealing design that is easy to follow. Try it out!
Thanks,
Jennell
