NEW! Content Monitor for Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows

[SavRakkar]

The new Content Monitor loads from the APIs and logs to present key metrics on the content, configuration, and usage of your platform, allowing administrators to understand the evolution and origin of specific behaviors of the platform.

• Basic information can be found in Content Monitor | help.qlik.com  
• Each sheet in the Content Monitor includes an About text box to describe its content. 
  

This new monitoring app comes pre-installed with the latest version (November 2025 onwards) of Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows.

If you are running previous versions of Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows, the Content Monitor is also available on Qlik's Downloads page here: Content Monitor (download page) - note, this must be manually installed and a weekly reload is recommended.

Thank you, very cool app.

Seems to work fine on May 2025.

But does not seem to work on May2024 release, even though the error says it requires Feb2020 or higher.

I'm upgrade my QS Cluster to November 2025 patch 1. Reload  Content montor fail with error 
Call ThrowException('The Content Monitor App requires Qlik Sense Client-Managed February 2020 or greater (>=13.62.x). This site must be upgraded to use this application.')
How we can dial with it?

Getting the same error on Nov 2024 patch 15. "The Content Monitor App requires Qlik Sense Client-Managed February 2020 or greater (>=13.62.x). This site must be upgraded to use this application."

Looking forward to being able to use this.

Hello,

Any ideas on how i don't see any data on the "File Inventory" sheet on qlik sense enterprise on windows?

i been trying to figure it out but cannot find a solution.

Thanks,

Hello @Mirham,

The File Scan is set to run once per month assuming that the App will be set to reload weekly. The parameter vFileScanReferenceDay allows to indicate when it should run.

The value is a day of the month, and if it is set to 1, the File Scan will run if the reload happens between the 1st and the 6th of the month. If it is set to 10, the File Scan will run if the reload happens between the 10th and the 16th of the month, and so on.

If if is set to 1 (as default), you will need to wait until the beginning of next month. If you need it earlier, then set the variable accordingly.

Other parameters like vFolderScanIsDynamic, IndividualFolderConnectionsToScan, DataConnectionsToExclude and others may restrict the number of reported files, but if it is not running at all, it should be related to the the first one mentioned above.

Hope this helps,

VG

Thank you very much @VictorGonzalezFaria, i missed that part completely.

Sorry for the inconveniences.

Best regards,

Hello,

The App will look for the Qlik Sense version in the log files of the AboutService folder in the ServerLogFolder Data connection, which by default is the C:\ProgramData\Qlik\Sense\Log folder in the Central server.

If the location of the logs has been moved, then the proper Data connection pointing to the right folder can be entered in vServerLogFolder.

If the folder is correct, then it may be that there are no log files with the software version in them. Qlik Sense only writes the version in the log during the start of its services. Any later log will not contain the version. 

The App will look for files as old as the number of days indicated in vSessionLogDaysBack, but if it can't find any, it exits with that error.

The App will find the version and proceed to reload after the next restart of the Qlik Sense services.

Hope this helps,

VG
