How to Capture and Send Filter Pane Selections to BigQuery in QlikSense

[Jutheesh2]

Hi Qlik Community,

I’m working on a QlikSense app where I need to capture user selections made in the filter pane and send this data to BigQuery. My goal is to store the exact filter values chosen by the user and forward them to BigQuery in real-time or in regular intervals.

Has anyone implemented something similar, or can you suggest the best approach to achieve this? I’m particularly interested in:

1. How to capture the selected values programmatically.
2. What the best practice is for integrating QlikSense with BigQuery for this specific use case.
3. Any potential issues or performance concerns to be aware of.

Would appreciate any guidance, examples, or documentation that could help!

Thanks in advance.

Hey @Jutheesh2 what is your final goal? Whay you need to send current selections outside Qlik?

Anyway, you could monitor current selections using a Qlik extension and selections API, then call a backend service for sending selections. Backend service will forward your data to BigQuery. This could be an option, please consider how to secure the entire flow.
