  This month we would like to introduce you to Diogo Oliveira. Diogo is based out of Lisbon, Portugal and loves helping students unlock the powerful insights in Qlik products and understand how much more they can do with the tools.  

  1. How long have you been with Qlik? 

  Since June 2016, so a little over 9 years now.

  

  2. How did you become an instructor? 

  I’ve always enjoyed technology, but even more than that, I’ve always loved helping people understand how things work. Early in my career, I worked in various technical roles, from consulting to solution development and implementation, and that’s when I realized that my favorite part of every project was explaining complex ideas in a way that made sense to others. At Qlik, that passion found the perfect home, and I transitioned from consultancy role to technical training. Becoming an instructor felt like a very natural step, it combined my love of technology with my drive to help people grow their skills and confidence. 

  3. What do you love about teaching Qlik courses? 

  I love seeing that moment when someone realizes how much more they can do with Qlik than they ever thought possible. It never gets old to see those “aha!” moments happen, and to help people understand the tool better. Plus, the variety keeps it fun, every class is different, and I always learn something new too. 

  4. How has the new platform helped you in leading your courses? 

  The new platform has made everything smoother, for both the students and me. It’s easier to manage content, share resources, and keep everyone engaged. I love that it gives learners more flexibility to practice and explore on their own, too. 

  5. What are your favorite features on the new platform? 

  I really like how intuitive and clean the interface is; it just makes everything easier to find and use. Plus, with virtual machines embedded right into the content, students don’t have to juggle multiple tools. It’s a true one-stop shop for learning, making hands-on practice way more seamless and convenient. 

  6. What is your favorite course to teach? 

  I really enjoy teaching the Data Modeling Training. It’s where students build a strong foundation by mastering how data fits together, which is key to unlocking powerful insights in Qlik. This course allows students to truly understand the Qlik engine and how data associations impact the way you do your data modeling. I love seeing students connect the dots and gain confidence in shaping their data for analysis. With that said, there are some new trainings about to be released that look quite interesting and could potentially dethrone the “King”. 

   

  Check out one of Diogo’s informative Live Instructor Webinars; available for both the AMER and EMEA regions, and register. We know you'll be back for more! 

  Happy Learning!

  Enhancements have been made to the line chart plugin feature that allows point and lines to be added to the line chart. These enhancements include features such as labels for points and lines, placement options for labels, and point symbol, size and color styling options. In the chart below, there is a line chart showing the daily page views for a site over time. Notice the point annotations for the highest and lowest daily page views days.

  

  Let’s look at how these were created and the new features that are now available. Points and lines can be added to a line chart from the properties panel under Add-ons > Shapes.

  

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

  The shape options that can be added are point and line. To add a point for the highest daily page views, a dimension value needs to be entered. It can be hard-coded, or it can be an expression. In this example, I used an expression to show the highest day in the current year. Measure input is set to measure index and the index is set to 0 to use the first measure in the line chart. Shown below are the styling options now available to use. Star was the symbol selected from the list of 7 options (circle, cross, diamond, saltire, square, star and triangle). The point color and outline are a color that stands out in the chart.

  

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

  The same procedure was followed to add the symbol for the lowest daily page views. The expression was modified as well as the symbol and symbol color. The Colored background was checked to give a dark background to the label to make it easier to read.

  

  Notice how these annotations highlight aspects about the line chart that may be significant or that the developer wants to point out. Let’s add a line to this chart to see what it looks like. To add a line to this chart that connects these points, a new line shape needs to be added with the value or expression for the line endpoints. Like the points, the line can be colored, and the line thickness, type and curve can also be styled.

  

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

  These shapes do not replace the reference lines or dimension reference lines that can be added to a line chart. They can still be added to a line chart. The shapes feature should be used to add context to a line chart to enable better understanding. Check out Qlik Help to learn more.

  Thanks,

  Jennell

  Qlik Replicate May 2025 General Availability Release

  

   

  New and Enhanced Endpoints

  Snowflake

  We continue to strengthen our strategic, technical, and commercial partnership with Snowflake, earning the award of Snowflake’s 2025 Data Integration Partner of the Year.

  • New Snowflake Source Endpoint: This latest endpoint is a significant addition as it offers the ability to read data directly from Snowflake. For Snowflake users, this means you can leverage Snowflake's powerful processing capabilities to transform and prepare data, and then use Qlik Replicate to replicate that processed data to any other Snowflake instance, as well as any supported target system. Opening new possibilities for data distribution and synchronization across your enterprise, ensuring your valuable Snowflake-processed data can fuel other applications or data stores.

  

   

  • New Unified Snowflake Target Endpoint: We continue to improve our integration with the Snowflake ecosystem and the user experience by consolidating the cloud providers (AWS, Google, or Azure) into a unified single Snowflake target endpoint. This simplification streamlines configuration and management. Additional configuration enhancements for proxy servers, internal Snowflake staging and the Storage Integration Name property provide greater flexibility, security, and optimized data loading for Snowflake users, regardless of their cloud deployment.

  

   

  ⚠️ Note: You can still use the existing standalone endpoints for cloud-specific Snowflake targets without disruption. We recommend using the unified Snowflake Target endpoint for new tasks. In future releases, we will be providing an automated process to migrate your existing tasks, with cloud-specific endpoints, into the unified Snowflake Target endpoint. ⚠️  

  Databricks

  • Databricks Delta Enhancements:

  • Primary Key Support: Qlik Replicate now creates primary keys on target Databricks Delta tables using the ‘RELY’ keyword. While Databricks doesn't enforce these, they are vital hints for query optimizers, leading to more efficient data processing and faster analytics within your Databricks environment. This is particularly important for Databricks users leveraging Unity Catalog for data governance.

  

   

  • Iceberg Reads (UniForm) Support: A new option enables tables to be created in a format readable by Iceberg consumers. This is a game-changer for organizations embracing open lakehouse architectures, allowing for greater interoperability between Databricks Delta and other Iceberg-compatible tools, including Snowflake's growing support for Iceberg. It ensures your data is accessible and usable across diverse platforms.

  • Support for Liquid Clustering using Primary Key Columns: This feature introduces liquid clustering, a powerful optimization that replaces traditional table partitioning in Databricks. By leveraging primary key columns, it significantly improves query performance and data organization within Databricks Delta tables, leading to faster insights and more efficient data operations.

  • Data Type Enhancement. More precise data type handling when replicating to Databricks, ensuring data integrity and compatibility.

   

  SAP Endpoint Enhancements

  Qlik has deep domain knowledge and expertise with the SAP ecosystem and remains committed in helping our customers empower their SAP data by offering flexibility and a wide breadth of endpoints and solutions to cater for different scenarios in your SAP environments.

  • Support for Accessing SAP HANA via SAP Application Server: This new option allows users to access SAP HANA through the SAP Application Server, which is highly beneficial for customers with an SAP Runtime License. It enables log-based CDC from SAP HANA without requiring direct database access, simplifying security and compliance.

  

   

  • Support for "Full Record" Mode in Trigger-based CDC: This new preview feature offers a "Full record" mode that retrieves and stores the entire data record in a "shadow" table for each captured table. This provides a complete history of changes, including before-images of UPDATE and DELETE operations. It offers improved latency calculation, reduces load on SAP HANA, supports soft deletes, and has fewer limitations than the "Primary Key only" mode, providing richer historical data for analytics and auditing.

  

   

  • Improved auditing and data governance: The AR_H_USER header can now be used in transformation expressions. This is invaluable for auditing and data governance, as it allows you to identify the specific user who performed operations in the source SAP HANA database, providing crucial lineage and accountability.

  • SAP OData Enhancement: The addition of the Client identifier setting enhances integration with SAP OData sources, providing more granular control and better traceability for data extraction from SAP applications.

  IBM Mainframe

  • New IBM IMS Endpoint (Preview): We are making a significant development for organizations with mainframe IMS data, by simplifying configuration and improving stability for extracting valuable data from these critical legacy systems. The first phase of enhancements eliminates the need for the ARC change-router. Don't hesitate to get in touch with your Qlik rep if you are interested in gaining access to this endpoint while it is in preview.
  • IBM DB2 for iSeries Source Endpoint: Expanded support for BINARY-DECIMAL and ZONED-DECIMAL data types ensures more accurate and complete data capture from critical IBM iSeries (AS/400) systems, reducing the need for manual transformations and improving data fidelity.

  Amazon

  • Amazon S3 On-premises Support: This new capability allows organizations to replicate data to S3-compatible storage systems deployed on-premises, such as DELL ECS, MinIO, and Apache Ozone. This is vital for hybrid cloud strategies, data sovereignty requirements, and maintaining data within your own infrastructure while still leveraging the benefits of S3's object storage.

  Kafka

  • Kafka-based Target Endpoint Enhancements:

  • Tombstone Support: A new option to send tombstone messages on DELETE operations is critical for maintaining data consistency in streaming architectures. It signals to Kafka consumers that a record has been logically deleted, enabling proper data synchronization in downstream systems. ⁷

  • Proxy Support: Customers can now connect to Confluent Schema Registry via a proxy server, providing greater network flexibility and security for Kafka-based data pipelines.

  MongoDB

  • MongoDB Source Endpoint: Enhanced Authentication: This enhancement provides greater security for MongoDB sources by adding the option for using Client Certificate (X.509). Mutual authentication was also added in Replicate November 2024 Service Release 1 for all authentication methods, such as SCRAM-SHA-256, ensuring secure communication channels.

   Newly Supported Endpoint and Driver Versions:

  Qlik Replicate continuously updates its compatibility. This release adds support for the latest versions of MariaDB, MySQL, PostgreSQL, IBM DB2 for LUW, IBM DB2 for z/OS, and Teradata Database ODBC Driver. This ensures that customers can leverage the newest features and security updates of their source and target databases while maintaining seamless data replication.

  Qlik Replicate Server Enhancements

  • Notification Suppression: This new feature allows administrators to suppress task notifications based on specific conditions (e.g., last notification time, error message content, task recovery status) and event duration (e.g., only notify if high memory utilization lasts longer than 5 minutes). This significantly reduces ‘alert fatigue’, allowing teams to focus on truly critical issues and improve operational efficiency.

  

   

  • Log Rollover and Cleanup Defaults for New Installations: For new Qlik Replicate installations, automatic log file management is now enabled by default. Logs will roll over if larger than 100 MB or older than 7 days, and files older than 45 days will be automatically deleted. This simplifies maintenance, prevents disk space issues, and ensures efficient log management from day one.

  Qlik Enterprise Manager May 2025 Enhancements

  • Clone Task API – we have introduced a new API to clone tasks, allowing you to programmatically clone existing tasks and optionally specify new names for various settings. This and all our APIs in Qlik Enterprise Manager are supported by REST, .NET, and Python 

   

  As always, each new release is fully supported for two years. To check the status of support for your currently installed version, please see the relevant product lifecycle pages.

  Artificial intelligence is making headlines everywhere. It can write essays, summarize articles, and generate images in seconds. For students, educators, and researchers, this opens up exciting possibilities.

  However, with these new tools comes a new challenge: how do we know if what AI gives us is actually true?

  AI doesn’t understand facts, it just predicts what sounds right based on patterns. This means it can sometimes produce false or misleading information. Experts call this “AI hallucination.”

  It’s not just about mistakes; bias is also a major issue. AI bias happens when the data used to train a model includes unfair patterns, like stereotypes or unbalanced information. AI can accidentally repeat and even strengthen these biases because it learns from what’s already out there. That’s why it’s so important to stop and ask: Where did this data come from? Who’s included and who’s missing?

  Data literacy and critical thinking matter more than ever, because recognizing these issues takes more than just trusting the tech.

  In fact, a recent article from MIT reminds us that while AI can support decisions, it shouldn’t replace human judgment. We still need people to ask questions, check sources, and notice when something seems off. AI can speed up the process, but it’s people who make sense of the output. (When AI Gets It Wrong: Addressing AI Hallucinations and Bias - MIT Sloan Teaching & Learning Technologies

  The good news? You don’t have to figure it all out alone. The Qlik Academic Program is here to help you to build the skills that matter most today.

  Through the program, you’ll get:

  • Free access to Qlik’s powerful data analytics tools
  • A full Data Literacy Course to help you think critically with data
  • Certifications that make students stand out in the job market
  • Practical resources for professors to bring real-world data skills into the classroom

   

  Everything in the Qlik Academic Program is built to help you explore data, ask better questions, and grow your skills, whether you're teaching or learning.

  So, whether you're a student getting ready for your future, a professor bringing data into your classroom, or a university driving innovation, this program is here for you.

  Because while AI is powerful, real progress happens when people know how to think with data.

  第５回データソン開催と合わせてはじめたこの Viz for Deck、ひとまず今回で最終回です。最後は前回長文にもかかわらず書ききれなかったテーブルのおかわり編で締めたいと思います。

  こんなかわいいテーブルを作ってみました！じゃ～んっ！

  

   

  なんと、これストレートテーブルですよ！

  メディアライブラリに格納した画像と、SVGを使って表現しています。こんなシンプルなデータで作ってみました。
  

  

   

  テーブルの軸は[星座]、ソート順は[ID]です。

  ２つ目の項目は[ID]、ラベルは「=' '」としています。そして表記を「画像」、画像の設定を「URLを追加」とし、画像URLに、メディアライブラリのアドレスを指定しています。サイズは高さに合わせています。

  

   

   

  メディアライブラリの各画像のアドレスの求め方ですが、Chrome 使用の場合をご紹介します。画像を追加できるところ（シート背景やサムネイルなど）からメディアライブラリを開いてください。そして該当の画像を選択した状態でファンクションキーの12を押して、ブラウザのDevToolsを開きます。そして、「Select an element」の矢印をクリックして画像のプレビューをクリックすると、Elementタブでアドレスを見ることができます。

  

  アドレス部分で右クリックし、「Copy」>「Copy element」をクリックするとクリップボードにコピーされます。この「/api/v1」以降を画像URLの欄に貼り付けます。このままでは固定ですので、最後のファイル名を可変にします。今回はファイル名の最後をIDと一致させているので、下記のように指定して、軸のIDに伴って対応する画像が表示されるように設定します。

  

  メディアライブラリの画像はAPIを使って求めることも可能です。QlikTips: URL による画像の設定 をご参照ください。

   

  続いて棒グラフの列です。ここはメジャーとして下記のSVG（スケーラブルベクターグラフィックス）を使った数式を設定しています。

  

  高さ20、幅103 の領域に、長方形 (rect) を描きます。幅は[ラッキー度]とし、高さは20です。塗りつぶしは[色]の色を使用します。

  ラベルは表示されないように「=' '」としています。表記は「画像」、画像の設定は「ラベルを追加」、「サイズは縮小/拡大して合わせる」にしています。（いったん、「高さに合わせる」にして中央表示にしないと画像が表示されない場合があります。）

  水瓶座の人ごめんなさい。ダミーデータです。

  お楽しみいただけましたでしょうか？それではまたいつかどこかで！

  Happy Dueling !

  EMARK EURO 2024 Challenge

  EMARK

  

  The app promotes EMARK, Qlik and Inphinity by engaging with a popupar sporting event. Participants were invited via social posts and directly. Many of EMARK customers participated. Participants were using Inphinity Forms extension to place bets. New (at the time) layout container was used to create a "Game Center" sheet to give participants more context about mathces, teams and their historical statistics. Inphinity Flow was used to visualise final bracket. It's main purpose is to showcase Qlik and Inphinity features.

  

  

  Discoveries

  Qlik can be fun to use. Together with Inphinity Forms it can even be used to create/edit data, which are immediately loaded back into data model and evaluated.

  

  Impact

  The main goal of the app was to promote Qlik, Inphinity and Emark. The app attracted tens of participants from among Emark customers, but also general public.

  

  Audience

  Anybody with at least some interest in European football and data.

  

  Data and advanced analytics

  Inphinity Forms was used as data entry tool to manage list of matches, and collect bets from participants. Supporting statistics were loaded from ESPN website via REST API.

  Hello Qlik Community,  

  We’re cruising through July and hope you’re enjoying the season—whether that means some time outdoors or diving into data! Today’s release brings a handful of updates to the Qlik Community that we’re excited to share: 

   

  Refreshed Header Design

  We’ve made some updates to the Community header. The navigation menu has been moved to the left side of the screen, and the order of items has been reorganized. Greenway has been removed from the header and can be located in the Resource page. We removed the search icon at the top of the page so make sure to search with the main search bar. See the new layout and formatting changes below. 

  Before: 

  

   

   

  After: 

  

   

   Affiliate Badges are Live

  

   

  

   

  Introducing our new affiliate badges! Members of our Luminary & Partner Ambassador Affiliate Program will receive their respective badges for all to see. 

   

  SearchUnify Maintenance

  We completed some behind-the-scenes updates to SearchUnify, the engine that powers Community search. Talend has been added as a new content source, and usability improvements were made to help surface more relevant results and streamline the overall search experience. 

   

  Updated Sizing for Qlik Community Apps

  We’ve adjusted the sizing of Qlik apps across the Community to ensure they render more cleanly across different devices. Whether you’re on desktop or mobile, the apps are now easier to view and interact with. 

   

  That’s all for now—thanks as always for being part of the Qlik Community. We’ll be back soon with more updates.

  Melissa, Sue, Jamie, Nicole, Tammy, Caleb and Brett

  Tibia - Explore your hunts

  Yuri Nicolett

  

  I've always been a data enthusiast, and that passion follows me even into my hobbies! One of them was playing Tibia (www.tibia.com), and my analytical mind couldn't resist the curiosity: what would it be like to have a complete dashboard of my in-game adventures? That's how I decided to build a simple, yet powerful, Qlik dashboard to dive into the details of my virtual journey. Now, I can track everything: from the hours dedicated and the number of epic creatures defeated, to my financial balance in the world of Tibia – how much gold I earned versus how much I invested. The "magic" behind it? Reading and storing game logs, transforming each session into a detailed, insight-rich history. It's proof that a passion for analytics drives us to create solutions in any universe, even virtual ones!

  

  

  Discoveries

  Detailed Hunt Analysis: You can see a complete summary of each hunt, including its duration, location (like "Baruta"), total XP gained, and XP per hour, allowing you to evaluate the efficiency of your sessions. Loot and Financial Management: The dashboard details the total value of loot obtained in a hunt and the value spent, providing a clear view of the financial balance of your adventures (profit or loss). For instance, it's possible to identify significant items in the loot value. Monster Monitoring: You can track which monsters were encountered and the quantity of each during your hunts, helping to identify areas with higher creature concentrations. Item Tracking: The detailed log allows you to specifically see what was dropped, the quantity, and the individual value of each item, such as armors, potions, or gold coins.

  

  Impact

  It helped even more with my fun!

  

  Audience

  Roles/titles of users: There are no business roles or titles, as it is for personal use. Where it's displayed: It is likely displayed on the user's personal computer or on devices where they access Qlik for their gaming statistics. Usage frequency and importance to business: There are no business usage metrics or importance to a business, as the purpose is purely for leisure and personal tracking of in-game achievements.

  Hello Qlik Automate admins and users,

  The Run Conversational Task block in the Hugging Face connector has been deprecated and removed from Qlik Automate.

  Why was the block removed?

  The block was removed due to Model Unavailability. The API used no longer supports any available models for execution under the conversational task.

  How does this affect me?

  You will no longer see the Run Conversational Task block in the Hugging Face connector.

  What action is needed from me?

  Check Your Existing Workflows. 

  Review any workflows and automations that include the Run Conversational Task block and remove the block from the automation to prevent an execution error.

   

  If you have any questions, we're happy to assist. Reply to this blog post or take similar queries to the Qlik Application Automation forum.

   

  Thank you for choosing Qlik,

  Viz for Deck: テーブルって地味かしら？

  テーブルって地味って思っていませんか？テーブルって、他のチャートと比べて文字や数字の羅列になりがちで華がないよなあなどと思っている人もいるのではないでしょうか？今回はテーブルを華やかにするアイデアをお伝えします。長文ですけど、下にいくほど面白いので最後まで読んでくださいね！

   

  インジケーターやミニチャートはご存じですよね？ただ数字を表示するだけでなく、これらを使用すると直感的に理解しやすくなったり、さらに追加の情報を盛り込み、リッチな表現にすることができます。

  下の図は特別なテクニックは全く使用していません。

  

  １．インジケーター（アイコン）を利用しています。限度を1000000とし、上回る場合は緑の旗アイコン、下回る場合は赤の三角アイコンを表示しています。アイコンとともに値を表示するかしないか、値にもアイコンと同じ色を設定するかどうか、インジケーターの位置も調整できます。

  

   

  ２．ミニチャートを利用しています。テーブルの主軸は取引先ですが、その軸毎にさらに年月度を軸として、各月の値をミニチャートの棒グラフで表現しています。色もこまやかに指定することができます。

  

   

  ３．こちらもミニチャートですが、棒ではなく点線を表示しています。

  ４．ミニチャートのスパーク線を表示しています。

  ５．前月との差をミニチャートの正負で表示しています。負の場合は赤、正の色は青を指定しています。

  

   

  ランキングによって絵文字を出すのはどうでしょう？ちょっと楽しくなります。簡単な数式で実現できます。

  

  

   

  正と負の表現をアレンジしたのが下の図です。
  利益率がマイナスの場合は左側に赤い棒と記号、正の場合は右側に青い棒を表示しています。

  

  

  式を解説します。

  まず、利益率が 0 以上の場合、空白を11回繰り返した後、縦棒「｜」を１文字表示します。その後ハイフォン 「-」を繰り返すのですが、商品名ごとに求めた利益率の絶対値が最も大きい値に対する当行の利益率の比率を求め、それを整数に四捨五入した数の30倍の「-」を繰り返します。何倍にするかは線が適当な長さになるように決めます。そしてそのあとに「●」を表示します。

  利益率が 0 未満の場合は、縦棒「｜」の位置を12文字目に合わせるために、最大利益率に対する比率分の長さを10から減算して空白を繰り返したのち「●」を表示します。そして比率分の数の「-」を繰り返して「｜」を表示します。

  最後に利益率の値を１文字の空白後に表示します。色はテキストカラー表現に設定します。

  

  マークを変えればこんな楽しい図にもできます。

  

   

  だいぶ長くなっちゃいましたが最後にピボットテーブルを利用した、グループ別のウォーターフォールをご紹介します。

  

  

  さきほどと同様のテクニックで商品区分別の最大値に対する各行に比率を求めて「■」を繰り返し表示します。１軸目の商品区分の行でない場合のみ、最初に空白を置いています。
  
  テーブルもアイデア次第でビジュいい感じに盛れますね！
  
  

  Happy Dueling !

  The old saying, GIGO-garbage in, garbage out, stays relevant even today with the world of fast evolving technologies. In particular, the world of data-AI is no different. Your AI projects are majorly impacted by the quality of data and therefore data has to be "ready" for AI. What might be relevant for one particular AI project might not be relevant to another. Getting your AI project to deliver the right outcomes is  dependent on the processes brought to the table with the data in question. 

  To learn more about how data can be ready for an AI project and what are the steps involved, read this article by Gartner: https://www.gartner.com/en/articles/ai-ready-data 

  To learn data analytics including free training and certifications, visit qlik.com/academicprogram 

  The Qlik Academic Program is being leveraged for getting trained in cutting edge data analytics technologies by more than 3300 universities and educational institutions worldwide.

  Red-White-Blue Refresh: One-Click Tenant Makeovers via Qlik APIs

  It’s the 4th of July, so while real fireworks fill the sky, I’m flipping my tenant into a star-spangled skin, and I'll switch it back to default first... Show More

  It’s the 4th of July, so while real fireworks fill the sky, I’m flipping my tenant into a star-spangled skin, and I'll switch it back to default first thing Monday.

  The holiday example is just a demo, what matters is that this is a repeatable pattern you can reuse for product launches, partner take-overs, dark-mode roll-outs or any scheduled swap.

  How it works:

  	What it controls	Think of it as…
  Brands API	Logo, favicon, browser titles	Signage
  Themes API	Colors, fonts, object styling	Paint
  Qlik Automate (Platform Ops connector)	Timed / event-driven swaps	Light switch

   

  1.  Brands API refresher:

  • GA for all customers since 4 Oct 2024 (the OEM-only limit is gone). qlik.dev 
  • Only one brand can be active per tenant. qlik.dev
  • Three assets: logo, favIcon, optional styles.css.

  Key endpoints (all under ​/api/v1/brands) qlik.dev

  POST    /brands                  
  POST    /brands/{id}/actions/activate
  POST    /brands/{id}/actions/deactivate
  GET     /brands/active
  
  

   

  2. Themes API at a glance:

  • JSON + QEXT zip controls palettes, fonts, object defaults.
  • Upload once, reference by name in any app.
  • Theme changes are per-app, but brands are tenant-wide.

   

  3.  The Automation glue:

  Multiple connectors including the Platform Operations connector ship ready-made blocks, so anyone with Automate access can schedule branding swaps.

  P.S (Not Tested): To switch an app's theme using Automate may require an externally hosted piece of code that uses the Engine API to swap the theme, as I was not able to do this via the existing blocks in Automate (yet).

   

  Fourth-of-July Demo:

  1/ Build the theme

  patriotic-theme.qext

  {
    "type": "theme",
    "name": "Patriotic-July-4",
    "description": "Red-white-blue palette for Independence Day"
  }

   

  theme.json

  Simple theme to get started:

  {
    "type": "theme",
    "name": "Patriotic-July-4",
    "properties": {
      "color": {
        "primary"   : "#3C3B6E",   
        "accent"    : "#B22234",   
        "background": "#FFFFFF"
      },
      "palettes": {
        "data": [
          {
            "name": "Stars-and-Stripes",
            "colors": ["#B22234", "#3C3B6E", "#FFFFFF"]
          }
        ]
      },
      "object": {
        "title": { "color": "@accent", "fontSize": "18px" },
        "axis" : { "color": "@primary" }
      }
    }
  }
  

  - Zip the theme files into patriotic-theme.zip

  - Then you can upload it to your tenant, or simply use qlik-cli to do that:

  qlik theme create \
    --file patriotic-theme.zip \
    --name "Patriotic-July-4" \
    --description "Red-white-blue holiday palette"

  More on Qlik CLI here.

   

  2/ Create & activate the brand 

  Docs/Tutorial: https://qlik.dev/manage/platform-operations/brand-a-tenant/ 

   2.1/ Create a new brand

  qlik brand create \
    --name "Holiday Brand" \
    --description "Independence-Day wrapper" \

    "createdAt": "2025-07-03T20:30:36.000Z",
    "createdBy": "HdEcP-DYgrNwhQ6x2kw6CfidciVcoyz4",
    "description": "Independence-Day wrapper",

      {
        "contentType": "image/x-icon",
        "eTag": "\"9feeaa2531d7ba38bef8e3198017188b\"",
        "id": "favIcon",
        "path": "/api/v1/brands/6866e86ca2aba070cf814c5f/files/favIcon"

        "id": "logo",
        "path": "/api/v1/brands/6866e86ca2aba070cf814c5f/files/logo"
      }
    ],
    "id": "6866e86ca2aba070cf814c5f",
    "name": "Holiday Brand",
    "updatedAt": "2025-07-03T20:30:36.000Z",
    "updatedBy": "HdEcP-DYgrNwhQ6x2kw6CfidciVcoyz4"
  }

   

  2.2/ Activate the brand

  export BRAND_ID=6866e86ca2aba070cf814c5f
  qlik brand activate $BRAND_ID

   

  Response:

  {
    "active": true,
    "createdAt": "2025-07-03T20:30:36.000Z",
    "createdBy": "HdEcP-DYgrNwhQ6x2kw6CfidciVcoyz4",
    "description": "Independence-Day wrapper",
    "files": [
      {
        "contentType": "image/x-icon",
        "eTag": "\"9feeaa2531d7ba38bef8e3198017188b\"",
        "id": "favIcon",
        "path": "/api/v1/brands/6866e86ca2aba070cf814c5f/files/favIcon"
      },
      {
        "contentType": "image/png",
        "eTag": "\"848074eaa51cb8997aacaa6b04d01a9a\"",
        "id": "logo",
        "path": "/api/v1/brands/6866e86ca2aba070cf814c5f/files/logo"
      }
    ],
    "id": "6866e86ca2aba070cf814c5f",
    "name": "Holiday Brand",
    "updatedAt": "2025-07-03T20:32:10.203Z",
    "updatedBy": "HdEcP-DYgrNwhQ6x2kw6CfidciVcoyz4"
  }

  (Under the hood: POST /brands, then …/actions/activate.) qlik.dev

  

   

  3/ Schedule with Qlik Automate

  Block	Settings
  Start (Scheduled run mode)	2025-07-04 00:00 tenant time
  Activate Brand (Qlik Platform Operations)	Brand = Holiday Brand
  List Items (Qlik Platform Operations)	with Filter List condition: meta.tags's name equals "holiday-mode"
  (Not Tested) For Each Item → Call externally hosted EngineAPI code using Call URL block	Your endpoint that receives appID and themeID and swaps the theme example: https://yourfunction.run/paint?app=1234theme=5678
  Send Slack Message	“Patriotic Mode ON”

  
  To revert back:

  Duplicate the flow → change trigger to 2025-07-06 00:00 → swap to "Deactivate Brand"→ patch apps back to "Sense Classic" (or default theme).

   

  
  

  Some use cases beyond the Holiday:

  	Brands API	Themes API	Automate trigger
  Quarterly refresh	Same brand	Four seasonal themes	Calendar
  Partner co-branding	One brand per partner	Partner-specific palette	Tenant-creation webhook
  Dark-mode toggle	Two brands (light/dark logo)	Light & dark themes	User button
  A/B color testing	One brand	Theme A vs Theme B	Hourly schedule + metric logging

   

  Keep logo & favicon changes in brand, color tweaks in theme, and let Automate decide when it happens. Also, remember that the brands affect the whole tenant, so make sure to preview in a sandbox tenant.

   

  Happy Independence Day .. and happy theming!
