Qlik & SharePoint Online (M365)

[SamRD]

Hi,
I have a question regarding Qlik integration with M365 from an end user perspective. We are seeing an increasing number of requests from business with regards to the need for a quick user friendly BI solution when it comes to SharePoint Online (M365). Are Qlik Sense on-prem and Qlik SaaS, right tools for this? Specially in compare with Power BI. Thanks.

Qlik Sense certainly has the capability to be embedded in a variety of Portals, Web Applications, and both Intranet and Extranet sites. 

Here is a slightly in-depth document of the different ways Qlik Sense can be used in this way: https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense-developer/May2022/Content/Sense_Helpsites/embed-qlik-sense.htm

Here's a very brief video (1 min) on how easy it can be to embed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ffCdjY-UiM

As a quick summary, Qlik has the flexibility to embed: Single Visualizations, A full sheet containing a curated set of Visualizations, or even a fully built Qlik Application with built in navigation. More advanced users may choose to use the Qlik APIs to build fully custom web applications.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for  sharing the insights Erik.

I followed the steps in the YouTube video. When my SharePoint page displays, the content in the embedded iframe added to the page continually renders but doesn't display anything. Every few minutes a "Connection lost. Make sure Qlik Sense is running properly." error message briefly displays before the content attempts to render again. Any suggestions?
