Hi Qlik Community,
We hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season and a great start to the new year! As we settle into 2026, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on what we’ve been working on over the past couple of months and share a few important updates, improvements, and upcoming opportunities with you.
Here’s a look at what’s new across the Qlik Community!
New Data Integration & Quality Forum: Qlik Open Lakehouse
We’re excited to share that we’ve launched a brand-new Qlik Open Lakehouse forum!
This space is dedicated to discussions around Open Lakehouse architectures, Apache Iceberg, and how Qlik supports modern, flexible data ecosystems. Whether you’re exploring open formats, optimizing performance, or thinking about governance at scale, this forum is designed to support those conversations.
We encourage you to subscribe and start asking questions and sharing insights!
Forum Updates
We’ve recently merged the Data Integration Component Development forum into the Talend Studio forum to better align related discussions across the Community. This change helps ensure questions, knowledge, and expertise live in a single, centralized space.
A dedicated label is available in the Talend Studio forum to clearly identify posts that originated from the Data Integration Component Development forum.
Homepage Carousel Improvements
You may have noticed a change to the Community homepage carousel. We’ve slowed down the rotation to give you more time to absorb each message, and we’ve added a pause button so you can control the experience yourself. This update reflects our continued commitment to making Community content easier to explore and more enjoyable to use.
Recent Fixes & Improvements
We’ve also resolved a few behind-the-scenes issues:
- A bug where selected time zones were displayed incorrectly for some users has now been fixed
- Navigation inconsistencies - where some users were seeing different layouts than others - have also been resolved
Thank you to everyone who flagged these gaps!
Scavenger Hunt Recap
Thank you to everyone who participated in our Qlik Community Scavenger Hunt!
We saw fantastic engagement across the Community, with over 100 submissions during the hunt. Five winners were selected and have received exclusive Qlik swag as a thank-you for completing the challenge.

Keep an eye out, we hope to bring back more interactive Community activities like this in the future.
