The NL Insights object can be dragged to a sheet, just link other chart objects.

    The NL Insights object, found in the Qlik Dashboard bundle, allows app developers to add natural language generated insights to a sheet. The NL Insights object can be dragged to a sheet, just link other chart objects. Developers can use the NL Insights object to display an analytical summary of the data.  This can accompany a single chart, a sheet, or the entire app. Once measures and/or dimensions are added to the object, narrative insights are automatically generated. The developer controls what data they would like to provide insights for based on their dimension and measure selections.

    The image below is the Dashboard bundle.

    Qlik Dashboard bundleQlik Dashboard bundle            Properties window > Data sectionProperties window > Data section

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    After adding the master measure Sales $ (as seen in the image on the left), the insights below are generated. This is an example of using the NL Insights object to provide overall insights for an app. By default, all appropriate analysis types are used to generate the insights based on the dimensions and/or measures selected, but the developer can modify these if they choose. Up to three dimensions and three measures can be added to a NL Insights object. If the combination of dimensions and/or measures does not return any insights, a message will be displayed.

     

    all insights.png

    In the properties window, the developer can deselect any of the analysis types that they would like to remove from the auto-generated list. For example, in the image below, the selected analysis types can be removed by clicking on the “x” image next to the analysis type.

    Properties window > Appearance section > Analysis typesProperties window > Appearance section > Analysis types

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    According to Qlik Help, NL Insights can offer the following analysis types:

    • Calculated measure
    • Ranking
    • Ranking (grouped)
    • Breakdown (geospatial)
    • Breakdown
    • Overview
    • Relative importance
    • Year to date
    • Trend over time
    • Comparison
    • Correlation
    • Process control (means)

     

    Natural language insights can also be used to accompany a specific chart. In the example below, a NL Insights object has the same dimension and measure that the line chart has and is used to provide a narrative of the chart. This can be useful to highlight important information. In this example, the style is set to bullet points, but it can also be set to sentences. Developers also have the option to set the verbosity to full or brief to show all recommendations or just the top recommendations. This example has verbosity set to full. Like other objects, insights are updated when selections are made in the app.

    sales over time.png

     

    Users can benefit from NL Insights – a native capability that provides AI generated insights to users. Developers can give users a narrative summary of a chart, a sheet, or an app, to supplement visualizations in an app. A few things to note about the NL Insights objects – you can have up to three NL Insight objects on a sheet and if you add a new master item to your app, you will need to refresh the app before the new master items can be used in the NL Insights object. Try the NL Insights object out in your next app. To learn more, check out this SaaS in 60 video and Qlik Help.

    Thanks,

    Hello Qlik Community!

    It’s April! In the States, the weather is warming up, flowers are blooming, trees are foliating, and QlikWorld is coming... NEXT WEEK! Are you excited?! We cannot wait to meet and see all of you! Make sure to stop by our booth for a special surprise 😉

    We had quite a few updates push out today, including some big changes with Ideation and the Downloads app.

     

    Introducing the Ideation App!

    Search and filter through existing Ideas  using Qlik Sense! Learn more about the coming changes to this area.

    Jamie_Gregory_0-1681243456442.png

     

    With this change, you will see that the’ Submit an Idea’ button has been grayed out until the new portal is ready.

    Jamie_Gregory_1-1681243456557.png

     

    Changes to the Downloads page

    The Downloads page has moved in the navigation, from Support > Support > Product News to Support > Product Downloads. To make access easier for our users, it is now an open page and will appear in the navigation, even if you are not logged in. We have also removed the Trial Downloads page to simplify the experience for our users.

    If you go to the page, and you are not logged in, you will be prompted to log in. Then some magic on the page will determine if you should see the available downloads or if you do not have the correct permissions. If you get a message that you do not have the correct permissions, please use the blue ‘Contact Support’ chat button in the bottom right to connect with an agent that can assist.

    Jamie_Gregory_2-1681243456636.png

     

    Use the Chat for faster answers

    We all like our questions to be answered quickly, right? The chat can help! Use chat to connect to an agent for quicker service. A new green banner will pop up on the case portal chat to remind you.

    Jamie_Gregory_3-1681243456911.png

     

     

    Moved ‘Accept as Solution’ button in line

    This request came from one of our users!

    The ‘Accept as Solution’ button was previously in the body of the comment, reducing the amount of real estate for the comment. The button has now been moved in line with the ‘Like’ and ‘Reply’ buttons.

    Jamie_Gregory_4-1681243457066.png

     

     

    So, what do you think of all the changes? Let us know in the comments below! It's been a busy month but we are so happy to bring you these new features and streamline experiences.

    We will see you at QlikWorld!

    Kind regards,

    Melissa, Sue, Jamie, and Nicole

    最新の Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ レポートが発表されました。メーカーの立場からすると、このレポートでの自社の位置付けに、いつもヒヤヒヤしています。

    Qlik-GMQ-Social-3-1080x1080-JP.jpg

    このレポートは私たちの業界で最も参照されており、顧客や導入を検討している企業にとって重要な手引きとなっています。Qlik 13 年連続でリーダーの 1 社に位置付けられたことをお知らせすることができ、嬉しく思います。このレポートを読みながら、なぜ Qlik がこの小さく独占的な位置に入れたのかを、私なりに考えてみたいと思います。

    高まる一貫性と実行力の重要性:この不透明な時代において、私たちを取り巻く世界も急速に変化しています。サプライチェーンの問題への迅速な対応、リスクモデルを活用した信用力の低下予測、コスト管理の最適化、どれもデータと分析が必要不可欠です。現在は経営陣が導入に関与するケースが増えており、長期にわたって継続的に価値を提供できると実証されたプラットフォームが求められているのだと実感しています。Qlik が選ばれている理由は、実績があること、成長し続けていること、利益を上げていること、そして先進的な一連の機能を提供していることです。

    独立性:現在、多くの大規模なスタックがビジュアライゼーションやダッシュボードを提供し、独自のユーザーベースに売り込むことができますが、依存や選択肢の欠如という代償を払うことになる場合もあります。調査によると、単一のスタックだけで作業したいと考える企業は少数であることがわかっています。この結果は、地理的な制約や規制上の問題に対処するための必然を表しているかもしれません。Qlik は、ハイブリッドクラウドおよび分散型クラウドのスタックエコシステムを横断でき、グローバルで市場をリードする独立したデータ・分析・自動化の選択肢として、独自の地位を確立しています。Qlik は、GCSAWSSnowflakeMicrosoftDatabricks といった企業と、最高のパートナーシップを結んでいます。

    分析をレベルアップ:データと分析の重要性は、かつてないほど高まっています。多くの企業が、レベル 1 のレポート・ビジュアライゼーション・ダッシュボードを超えようとしており、ビジネスの実行に適したより優れたアプリケーションを求めています。自動化・拡張・機械学習・高度な分析をビジネスの深部に組み込んで、アクションにつなげることを望んでいます。そして、ほぼリアルタイムでデータが流れる俊敏なデータパイプラインの一部となることを望んでいます。構成可能な分析・アクティブインテリジェンス・アクションにつながる分析を展開すれば、従業員のスキルを向上し、飛躍的に高い価値を生み出すことができます。

    融合:私は、「企業は一部のデータしか活用できていない」と、企業に伝え続けています。データ管理・統合・カタログ・分析・データサイエンス・自動化に対するサイロ化されたテクノロジーやアプローチは、データ漏えいを引き起こします。こうした分野を融合することで、相乗効果を引き出すことができます。Qlik は、データと分析・顧客をより大きな視点で捉えており、分析を重視しながら、分析にさらなる価値を提供することができます。

    AI は始まりに過ぎない:2023年は、すべての人が AI を話題にするでしょう。Qlik は、最新のアプローチで幅広いユーザー層への分析の民主化に尽力し続けています。Qlik は、自然言語入力と自動化されたダッシュボードのレイアウトで、AI が生成したダッシュボードを作成する Augmented Authoring を提供しました。自動予測・クラスタリング・主要要因の分析など、より多くの従業員がデータサイエンティストや分析開発者となって謎を解明し、分析を強化できる機能を提供し続けていきます。
