Show most recent data in Qlik Sense

[#1]

Hi everyone,

I want to set an action that basically everytime when I open my Qlik Sense app, it will show me all my graphs in the most recent data (month and year, not date). I know how to do this in QlikView (document properties - triggers) but I don't know how can I do it in Qlik Sense or what other alternatives do you suggest?

For example, using max(year) and max(month) in all my formulas.. like this Sum({$<Year={$(=Max(Year))}>}sales)... is there a better/quicker way?

Thanks!!!!!

That's not possible in Qlik Sense afaik. There are no triggers available in Qlik Sense apps.

Hi Viridana,

Maybe as a work around you can try something like this:

load an inline table with one value as "Most recent data". and create flags in your master calendar for the latest date and use that flag in the data model to link the "Most Recent data".

Now in the front end, please the "Most Recent data" as a filter, now select the filter and Create a Bookmark.

If you want to initialize the bookmark when the app is opened, you will have to build an extension to apply a bookmark or open the app with the bookmark itself.

Thanks,

Sangram.

Hi Sangram,

Can you please send an example which you might have used in your project for this type of issue? A qvf file will be appreciated.

Hi Manoj,

If you create an extension which runs a function in javascript every 5 min (or the time interval you need) which calls this : "app.doReload();" you can automate this on the desktop version.

Use the setInterval() function in JS to achieve this.

Thanks,

Sangram.
