[QlikProductUpdates]

A new release of Qlik Application Automation is here, with improved navigation, the ability to zoom in and out of automations, and several new connectors, blocks, and templates. Let’s first dive into the new connectors and blocks. Then, look for more information on the individual links for “Getting Started” articles.

Qlik Catalog enables the creation of automated workflows that use the metadata stored in the on-premises data catalog. As a result, you can now create workflows that synchronize metadata between various catalogs for data stewardship.

New Qlik Cloud Catalog API blocks added to the Qlik Cloud Services Connector enables interaction with Qlik Cloud data assets, sets, and stores.  

Azure Blob Storage New native cloud storage blocks provide connections to the Microsoft Azure Blob Storage platform. Blobs are encrypted storage solutions that Microsoft offers to store unstructured data.

Qlik Cloud Services Adds New Automations Blocks that enable users to conduct health checks on the usage of automations in an organization, report on the use of specific connectors in a tenant, and provide automation management across tenants.

Qlik Enterprise Manager Build an automation to connect with Qlik Enterprise Manager, the management interface for Qlik Data Integration that helps you design, execute, and monitor Qlik Replicate and Qlik Compose tasks across large business landscapes.

Next, we would like to introduce new alerting templates and a new template to store a straight table as a CSV file on Amazon S3. Each template is linked to a “Getting Started” article in Community. The three new alerting templates provide email notifications in the following situations:

• Alert app owners about apps without reloads in the past X days—App owners receive a list of apps that have not been reloaded in a specified number of days or apps that have been created but not reloaded.
• Alert app owners about apps that have not been accessed in the last 28 days.
• Alert app owners and tenant admins about orphaned data connections.

Store a straight table as a CSV file on Amazon S3, store a straight table from a Qlik Sense app to a CSV file on Amazon S3.

Conclusion

Qlik Application Automation enables users to build workflows from data warehouses and lakes into business applications that trigger alerts and actions in response to changes in data across all departments. Application Automation optimizes processes, integrates SaaS applications, and drives actions.
