Qlik Sense 3.1 is our first release after June’s Qlik Sense 3.0‌. Qlik Sense 3.0 introduced us to major new innovations including Visual Search, Visual Data Preparation as well as developer and user experience improvements. (In case you missed it you can see this 50 second action inspired trailer that shows highlights of what was previously released in Qlik Sense 3.0.) Qlik Sense 3.1 builds on many of the same themes that improve the user experience, enhance data preparation and address our developer community. During this release schedule we also have a few other "extras" that will both please and surprise you. Read on to learn more my friends.

User Experience


We continue to focus on driving our user experience alongside enhancements to our engine and ecosystem.  In 3.1 we made a number of chart improvements including more granularity in time-aware charts which were introduced in 3.0.  We’ve added more controls to line and combo charts and added auto recognition of city and country data to our mapping.  We’ve added the capability to "unpivot" pivot table and cross table data in the data manager and included the ability to pre-filter data via selected bundled connectors and made the visual data preparation algorithm even smarter.  We’ve also added a number of UI enhancements including drag and drop chart coloring.

Embracing Developer Innovation


We not only continue to build and invest in our 9,000 strong developer community via Qlik Branch but we continue to create tools for developers to better experience the power of our platform and make it easier to build on.  Our new Qlik Playground™ does just that. It is a free, one-of-a-kind programming environment that allows developers to learn about, use, and experiment with Qlik‘s associative engine and APIs.
