Hi Qlik Expert,
I am trying to see data source after downloading Qlikview files from demo site.
Qlik Demos: See QlikView in Action | Demo.Qlik.Com
And I can run the demo locally, but don't know the data source.
Please advise.
Dear Salman,
Qlik does not provide any data source with Demo application.
These QVWs are already loaded with data, after loading data QVW is published over the demo site.
This is the beauty of QlikView that you can view your dashboard with last reloaded data and you do not need any data source until or unless you will not reload again.
Kind regards,

I don't think Qlik has published the data sources to their demos, but you can export the tables from the model to QVDs, e.g. using
Hi Stefan,
Your response is highly appreciated!
I am very new to Qlikview, another question for you related to that.
When we download a .QVD document, and after opening the document, click Control + E, select a table for data preview, it shows data.Where this data comes from? Does Qlikview stores this data somewhere in .QVD?
Please advise.

Are you talking about a QVD or QVW?
What is the difference between QVW and QVD ? | Qlik Community
A QVW / QlikView application by default does store the data itself to file after a reload / script run has been done, i.e. the QV in-memory data model will be stored to disk. You only need to re-run the script to refresh the data, then.
