Native integration to Google Big Query is on our roadmap for Qlik Sense, however it is possible to connect to Google Big Query through ODBC today.

The ODBC driver can be downloaded for free from here: https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/partners/simba-drivers/

Thanks

Dear Dean,

It is not free it is asking for credit card details for both options Individual/Business.

Hi Zahid, your post helped me a bit so here goes a freebie for you. Qlik have now released a native connector for Bigquery. You need version 3.0 or above of the ODBC Connector Package (released Nov/Dec 2017), works on both Qlikview and Qlik Sense. Please check the Qlikview and Qlik Sense compatibility, scroll down on this page:

Here is how to create a connection:
