Qlik Sense integration with GIT

[PierfrancescoGirolami]

Hello everybody,

 maybe someone has already asked for it but I didn't find any post related. Is there any way to use a GIT repository with Qlik Sense. We need to commit and manage versions of the load script and the qvf (without data) too.

Thank you for any information you can provide.

There is an article "How to use git with Qlik Sense. Part 1" [1], that mentioned below.

"Gitoqlik is a Chrome browser extension that connects Qlik Sense to GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, and lets you save your applications in a Git repository."

This article shares many interesting and valuable information regarding the use case scenario. However this is a third party tool.  So any question, please reach out the author.

Hello,

 thank you very much for your reply. Gitoqlik could be a solution even if I would prefer a solution completely by Qlik.

For sure, I will take a look to your link in depth.

Bye!

Hello,

I understand that you would like to have a native solution for this use case scenario, however since it is not available at the moment, you can submit a feature request [1], where you can describe how this feature will be beneficial for you and other users as well.

Hi you might want to use Qlik application automation for this purpose if the goal is to manage change control of Qlik apps into Git.

Here is one approach to take (but certainly not the only one since you may want to use a workflow that fits how you do change control better but hopefully it gives you an idea how to do this with 100% Qlik.

Hi all,

I've created a CLI tool called BIForm aimed at improving Qlik Sense BI application management via version control like Git. It can help you:

1. Seamlessly track and manage changes to your apps.
2. Easily revert to previous versions of your applications.
3. Collaborate with team members through a clear change history.

BIForm also supports functionalities such as pulling the latest changes and applying them to multiple apps at once, significantly improving the update management across your BI applications.

As an open-source project, your insights and contributions to BIForm are highly appreciated. You can find more details, contribute or provide feedback through the project's GitHub repository: [link to GitHub repository].

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.
