QlikView 11 and Sharepoint 2013 integration issues

[#1]

Has anyone successfully Sharepoint Webparts on Sharepoint 2013 server. I'm having issues with the setup and it just fails at the initial step with the error message saying that "In order to use this product you should already have MOSS2007 or Sharepoint Services 3.0 or Sharepoint 2010".

I'm trying to setup this on Sharepoint 2013 and would appreciate if anyone got this working.

Hi Ravi,

The QlikView webparts for Microsoft SharePoint do not support SharePoint 2013.  There are a number of other techniques to integrate with SharePoint.

1. embedding iFrames

2. http://community.qlik.com/docs/DOC-4225 (this extension allows iFrames to be created from within QV)

3. Using the SharePoint Script Editor webparts and the Workbench license one can utilise DIV tags.

Regards,

Clint

Hi Clint,

Are the webparts required to pull data from a list in Sharepoint 2013 into QlikView 11? I'm simply wanting to pull data from the Sharepoint List into Qlikview.

Hi Crystal,

No the webparts are not required to pull the data into QlikView,  the webpart license is to provide the ability to display QlikView elements on a SharePoint site.

I personally havent loaded data from a SharePoint list into QlikView, however there is plenty of content available on this, such as:

http://sharepointqlik.blogspot.com.au/2012/03/how-to-connect-sharepoint-list-to.html

Alternatively you could investigate the creation of an SQL Server Integration Services package using the Codeplex provided drivers for SharePoint Lists.  QlikView could then read the resultant SQL Table as its source.

PS:

I will do some tests and post here with some results.

I followed the URL above and had some success importing list data.

As the URL describes,  once the load script was generated it loaded with errors.

Changing columns in the load script from:

[datatype/dt:lookup] as dt:lookup

to

[datatype/dt:lookup] as 'dt:lookup'

Fixed these errors.

The approaches described by Clint Carr are the best approaches for integrating QlikView into SharePoint (including 2013).  QlikView WebParts is more of a legacy approach when when QlikView (and the web in general) wasn't zero footprint on the client side.
