This occurred even for built-in visualizations.
QB-10789	Data connections: Could not load NCLOB or CLOB data types when connecting to Oracle DB	Fixed an issue where scripts failed to load field type NCLOB or CLOB when connecting to Oracle DB.
QB-10763	Qlik Oracle connector: Error in XML element function	Fixed a bug where using the XmlElement function in queries of the ODBC Connector Package Oracle datasource caused an error (ORA-00907: missing right parenthesis).

QB-9080	Make sure table doesn't scroll horizontally when confirming selections	In touch mode, the focus was incorrectly set to a cell at the start of the table. Now the focus is not set at all in touch mode, because focus is not applicable on touch devices.
QB-8050	Scheduler: Operations Monitor app does not show new reloads	Fixed a bug that altered the structure of the scheduler service logs, making them incompatible with the data load model of the Operations Monitor app. To inspect reload activity from the affected period, use the Reloads Monitor app.

February 2022 Patch 5

Key	Title	Description
QB-10460	"/qrs/license/requestaccesstype" takes long time to complete with large number of SAML groups	Fixed the issue by improving the parsing mechanism of values included in the "X-Qlik-ExtendedUser" header.
QB-9967	Information disclosure in response to "/qrs/systemrule/security/audit/export" API	The response to "/qrs/systemrule/security/audit/export" no longer discloses sensitive information. The file location now points to "%Temp Location%".
QB-9789	Qlik Sense: Large number of user groups coming from SAML\OIDC authentication caused slow performance in the hub and QMC	Some requests to the Qlik Sense Repository service would unnecessarily include persisting user attributes twice. This would impact performance across the Qlik Sense product. The issue has been fixed and the X-Qlik-ExtendedUserInfo header is now only included in an initial request, when the repository service compares the existing attributes with the ones coming from the Identify Provider.
QB-9456	Security issue with jQuery UI 1.12.1	Upgraded jQuery UI from 1.12.1 to 1.13.1 to avoid a security issue.
QB-9172	The exportPDF method doesn't render all table columns	To include all columns in exportPDF, the objectSize can be used to specify the size that the object needs to be rendered.
QB-8893	Issue with nine items in filter pane	A filter pane with exactly nine items now has a scrollbar. This makes the last item readable and reachable.
QB-8826	Qlik Sense Repository Service allows more than one ServiceCluster	Fixed an issue where the Qlik Sense Repository Service would allow, via API call, to create more than one ServiceCluster entity. This might have caused issues with ServiceCluster settings. Now, the error "400 Bad Request - Only one service cluster per deployment allowed" is thrown.
QB-8638	Unauthorised access to QMC sections possible by changing response	By intercepting and reusing the response to a /qrs/SystemRule/security/evaluatetransientresources request, it was possible for an unprivileged user to unlock sections in the Qlik Management Console (QMC), while still being restricted to information within them. The issue has been fixed by hashing values returned from the evaluattrancientresrouces endpoint from the QmcSection access check, which in turn prevents unauthorized access to QMC.
QB-5766	Sheet with dynamic view is "published" when trying to edit the sheet	Fixed an issue with editing a sheet with dynamic views. You would get a message that the sheet was published and that you had to duplicate it to edit.

February 2022 Patch 4

Key	Title	Description
QB-10174	Issue with notification setup when several websockets have opened the same app	When several websockets open the same app event, registration of notifications like publish and unpublish is set up and torn down appropriately.
QB-10171	Reload script is executed successfully but app save fails	Added a retry mechanism where a locked transaction file would cause Engine to fail when saving the app. Affected areas: - Autosave - API: DoSave - API: DoSaveEx Note that when the saving sometimes takes a bit longer to complete, this could be the retry mechanism waiting for the file to get unlocked for writing (10 ms for each retry).
QB-9484	Qlik Sense Desktop error at login	Fixed an issue with Qlik Sense Desktop 2022 authentication against Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows (QSEoW). The authentication would fail with the error "Failed to open selected hub" when QSEoW had invalid certificates and the user decided to accept the invalid certificate.
IM-131	Add retry of CopyFileCollection when performing DoSave	Improvement for environmental issue when DoSave might fail. The failure could be seen in the Engine System log as '*Could not copy collection* <fileshare path to app> (genericException)' AppSerializer: SaveApp_internal caught extended exception 9010: Unknown error. Added a retry mechanism that can be controlled through the settings.ini file: CopyCollectionRetry=5 The default value is currently set to five retries. This setting can be turned off by setting it to 0.

February 2022 Patch 3

Key	Title	Description
QB-9485	Incorrect layout of Multi KPI objects in Qlik Sense	Fixed the layout of the objects in the KPI.
QB-8689	Section Access on key field can cause a crash	When a key field is reduced by Section Access, the data traverse cannot correctly handle NULL values if the reduced field had NULL values before reduction, but not after. In rare cases, it could cause the engine to crash.
QB-7782	Host header not validated when Qlik Sense hostname is added in 'Host allow list' in virtual proxy settings	Improved the HTTP Host header validation method for permitted domains as per 'Host allow list' performed by Qlik Virtual Proxy. This invalidates the use of wildcards (*). See Invalid entries in the Qlik Sense host allow list on the virtual proxy configuration .
ENBT-440	Issue with deadlock on autosave loop	Due to synchronization primitive usage the autoloop could hang several threads, and at a later point potentially cause a restart of the engine. This issue has been resolved.

February 2022 Patch 2

Key	Title	Description
QB-7903	ODAG indication green light not consistent	In case of having multiple ODAG links in an app there could be times when the constraints check (green light indicator) would use an expression from a different ODAG link. It will now use the correct expression.
QB-8218	Smart search doesn't work when used in session apps	Resolved an issue where smart search did not work in session apps or in a mashup.
QB-8381	Fix 'Apply changes' message on Container object	The 'Apply changes' message that appears on the property panel when switching between tabs in the Container object has been removed.
QB-8541	Multi KPI chart style is changed unintentionally	Multi KPI chart is now reverted to the original style.
QB-8873	Forms Authentication with FQDN creates new user	When a user authenticated to Qlik Sense with Forms Authentication and FQDN as user directory, it was recognized as a different user, compared to when using a simple domain name. This has been fixed by using user impersonation, which prevents the creation of a new user.
QB-8992	Use safe ciphers by default	Fixed an issue with unsafe ciphers. The unsafe ciphers have been removed and a list list of supported predefined ciphers is used. If you want to use the unsafe ciphers, you need to provide a list of them as mentioned in this knowledge article: https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/May2021/Content/NPrinting/DeployingQVNprinting/TLS-cipher-suit..., under the `--cipher-suites` param
QB-9228	App is not showing in Insight Advisor chat	For apps with large data models, scraping calls might take a long time to complete. Fixed the issue by making the scraping timeout of the nl-app-search HTTP request configurable. The default value for the timeout (two minutes) can now be increased by setting the scraping-request-timeout parameter in the service configuration.

QB-6287	Printing service errors for chatbot users	Fixed DPS and NL broker.
QB-6320	Not possible to restore an application with Qlik Sense May 2021	If an app is missing version number when it is opened, we add the latest engine version number to it.
QB-6400	Selections are not displayed in the selection bar	Under a certain racing condition the selection state layout did not represent the latest selection properties. The correct selection was however always applied.
QB-6449	Only return relative links for endpoint	Changed response to only return relative links from the endpoint: "/converter/v1/projects/"
QB-6531	Publishing and replacing an app	When doing publish and replace of an app, if the app has a duplicated object of the same type in the database, keep the most recent object and remove the other object.
QB-6547	Fix missing Total Text	Fixed a problem where a Total text was sometimes wrongly suppressed. This could happen on a Top Dimension where the Other node is under an expanded dimension.
QB-7044	Variable Input : Sheet with many Variable Input objects does not keep the value set by the user	With too many objects present, the function to set the variable value was overlapping with the next input. Note : After the fix, the overlap does not occur and each value updates separately.
QB-7070	Return the full allocated license access numbers no matter which user is calling accesstypeoverview	This enables QMC to properly disable the Allocate button when there are no more seats available, even if the user in question does not have read on all the allocated users. Only the allocation numbers are revealed. Not the user info
QB-7225	Insight Advisor Chat was not working with database security	Insight Advisor Chat was not working with SSL/TLS Postgres Connection configuration.
QB-7234	Variance Waterfall chart does not update after filtering	Variance waterfall was not getting layout updates when other charts were in full screen state.
QB-7255	Long expressions move info panel off the bottom of the expression editor	Addressed issue where long expressions moved info panel off the bottom of the modal expression editor dialog.
QB-7285	SQL Execute incorrectly triggering prepared statements	Execute tried to trigger a prepared statement instead of a stored procedure.
QB-7366	Exploration menu not working	Exploration menu was not working in charts inside a container after upgrade to August 2021.
QB-7377	Prevent error when fetching product-info through mashup code	Use withCredentials when explicitly set to avoid an error when running mashup code, which explicitly sets withCredentials.
QB-7378	Prevent user-locale error in QSEfW for mashups	/api/v1/user-locale gave error 404 in Qlik Sense for Windows mashup. Use withCredentials when explicitly set to be able to fetch deploymentType from productInfo which is needed to fetch locale in the right way, without throwing an error.
QB-7413	OIDC attributes not using the Qlik Sense attribute mapping	After authenticating with OIDC, attributes persisted in the database were not properly mapped to Qlik Sense attributes.
QB-7466	Error "The calculation condition is not fulfilled"	Fixed "The calculation condition is not fulfilled " showing as error popup in some instances.

QB-7494	Engine API Explorer not showing apps	Previously, the Engine API Explorer was crashing when trying to render a list with a large number of apps. This bugfix consists in limiting the total number of apps that can be displayed in the browser to a max of 5000, which avoids crashing.
QB-7504	Custom axis theme not working in combo chart	Fix for an issue where combo chart did not properly apply axis styling defined in a custom theme.
QB-7705	Qlik Sense used a version of log4net with known vulnerabilities.	Log4net version has been updated from 2.0.8 to 2.0.12.
QB-7722	Unreliable auto-save behavior after reload	Qlik Sense will automatically save edits on session close and at a regular interval. Auto-save could be unreliable when a user session against an app had changed between open modes "with data" versus "without data". This happened if an end user would open an app without data and then reload the app from the Data load editor, but it could also happen as a result of scheduled reloads with impersonation. The problem could affect all users of the app, but in a multi-node system, problems would only occur on the node where the reload took place.
QB-7727	Multi KPI chart export from story to PDF	When exporting Multi KPI chart from a story to PDF the output was blank.
QB-7798	QMC Log collector does not collect some folders	Default filter has been extended to include Licenses service logs. New check-box added for collecting all the logs - "Ignore log-folder filter and export all". Refer to documentation for details.
QB-7812	Custom theme font size adjusted only text, not container	The height of the items inside the filter pane will now be adjusted for the font size that is set.
QB-7903	ODAG indication green light not consistent	In case of having multiple ODAG links in an app there could be times when the constraints check (green light indicator) would use an expression from a different ODAG link. It will now use the correct expression.
QB-7950	Continuous line chart points at the edges cut off	Fix for an issue where points at the edges of a continuous line chart were being cut off.
QB-7975	Editing reload task with task event trigger removes the task chain icon	Consequence of QMC caching, now fixed.
QB-7987	Fix of #myapps and #mytasks custom filters	Default #My apps or #My tasks filters would not work as QMC did not rely on fetching "user.id" from the repository service. Fix ensures that it always fetches "user.id".
QB-7988	SSPI added for when WebFileUseWinAPI is turned off	SSPI is added in WebFileUseWinAPI=0 mode, making it possible to use current Windows credentials with web file connectors in that mode.
QB-7993	Table chart not allowing columns to be resized or moved with mouse click and drag	When the title of a column could not be determined, the table had issues calculating the column widths. This is now fixed.

QB-8091	Bullet chart segment colors displayed incorrectly	Fix for an issue where bullet chart segment colors sometimes displayed incorrectly, and sometimes broke the chart.
QB-8140	Error message when copying sheet clarified	Error message when copying and pasting a sheet between apps using different engines is clarified.
QB-8149	Stacked bar charts updated	The stacked bar chart was presented incorrectly. This was fixed in an update of the visualization.
QB-8193	Lodash vulnerability in Qlik Sense services	Some of the Qlik Sense services were using a version of Lodash earlier than 4.17.12. This was considered vulnerable to Prototype Pollution. All affected services have now been upgraded to use version 4.17.21.
QB-8195	SAML Single logout returns 500 error instead of re-directing to login page	When using SAML authentication, upon manual logout or session timeout, the Hub or QMC returned a 500 error. With this fix, the user is redirected to the login page where the user can see the text "You have been logged out" with an option to log in again.
QB-8198	Amazon Athena connector improvement	When using the Amazon Athena connector, the Data preview dialog now uses row limits with generated queries. This improves load times.
QB-8261	Assignments with UNKNOWN domain name pushed to the local Licenses service	Removing existing or adding new assignments for Qlik Cloud-specific users would not sync with the local Licenses service. This resulted in discrepancy in active assignments between Qlik Sense Repository and Licenses services, which could result in an inability to assign new users.
QB-8302	Line chart displays duplicate tooltip measure	In some cases, a line chart might display a custom tooltip measure twice when the mouse pointer hovers over dimension values (for example, at the bottom of the line chart). This is issue is resolved.
QB-8338	Master visualization combo chart not working	Fix for an issue where old combo charts that were missing newer properties did not work properly as master visualizations.
QB-8348	Response to '/qrs/{entity}/table' does not include value of the custom property's "name"	Introduced by previous fix not to include custom property definition in custom property values when opening the Hub. Affected QMC endpoint has now been corrected to include the value of custom property's "name".
QB-8387	Sessions shared between browsers do not sync selections when using SAML authentication	SAML authentication flow was corrected to make sure that "samluser" object matches the referential "BaseUser".
QB-8403	"IdP GetRedirect failed" error in IdP OIDC .well-known endpoint	Generic IdP OIDC .well-known endpoint does not work with Qlik Sense. "IdP GetRedirect failed" error is shown. This was caused by a check on "SupportedScopes" and "SupportedClaims" tags. Removed aforementioned tags from IdP's discovery endpoint parsing validation as they are not mandatory for custom IdPs.
QB-8473	Third-party software list in Qlik Sense About included "log4j 2"	"log4j 2" was removed from the list as it is not used in Qlik Sense product.
QB-8552	Dragging files in Qlik Sense Desktop failed	Dragging files into Qlik Sense Desktop resulted in an infinite spinner instead of allowing the selection of data. This issue is fixed.
QB-8695	Teradata SSO username format is now configurable	Now users can make the Teradata SSO username format configurable by editing the SSOUsernameFormat property in QvOdbcConnectorPackage.exe.config file. For UPN format, edit the property to:  <add key="SSOUsernameFormat" value="upn" /> For samaccountname, format property should look like this:  <add key="SSOUsernameFormat" value="samaccount" />

he following issues and limitations were identified at release time. The list is not comprehensive; it does however list all known major issues and limitations.

Clients

• Third-party extensions are currently not supported on mobile devices, and the Qlik Trusted Extension Developer program does not accredit extensions for use on mobile devices. Depending on individual device specifications, mobile OS, and size of the Qlik Sense app, items generated using a third-party extension might fail to be visualized properly on a mobile device.
• When consuming Qlik Sense apps using Microsoft Edge browser, touch screen mode is activated by default even when it is run on a non-touch device. Workaround: turn 'touch screen mode' off from the navigation menu.
• When consuming Qlik Sense apps using Microsoft Edge browser on touch/hybrid devices, the long-press action does not work. This limitation prevents from accessing functions such as an object’s context menu, which on touch mode requires a long-press. This is a Microsoft Edge’s issue.
  Workaround: If using a hybrid device, turn the touch mode off and turn it back on again.

• Export as Anonymous does not work for mashups deployed in a domain that is different from the domain in which Qlik Sense is installed. Export only works for Anonymous if the mashup is deployed in the same domain as Qlik Sense.
• When using the new “Load Extension” syntax in the load script, the Data load editor syntax completion does not work well after the keyword “Extension” when trying to write the call to an SSE function (AAI function). Nevertheless, the script executes correctly.
• Legend does not show dimension values that are after row number 3000.
• Internet Explorer supports a maximum of six web socket connections.
  Workaround: See https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/ee330736(v=vs.85).aspx
• Exporting a story to PowerPoint limitations:

1. Titles are not rescaled as HTML, font settings are not yet exported.
2. Storytelling effects are not applied.
3. Exported charts may show fixed scroll bars, depending on the export resolution.

• It is not possible to open the context menu of an orc chart on a touch device.

• When you choose to view data in the context menu in a Dynamic Chart and make a new selection in the app, you need to refresh the browser for the chart to be displayed again.

Dynamic views

• Dynamic views that are deleted from one app are also deleted from every other app that was using the same view. There is no work-around for this issue other than to avoid deleting views that may already be in use by one or more other apps because of having made copies of these apps.
• When creating a new dynamic view in the assets panel, if there are one or more existing dynamic views, the dropdown menu item does not automatically change to show the charts of the newly created dynamic view.  The user must click on the dropdown menu to choose the newly created view.
• The data for a dynamic view is automatically refreshed (i.e. re-queried from source) whenever a user enters a sheet containing any charts for that view.  The same occurs when entering and then returning from the global selections panel as well as when adding a new chart for the same view.  To prevent triggering this automatic refresh behavior, users should refrain from performing these actions on the base app.
• The view of a dynamic chart is cleared and overlaid with a message indicating a view constraint violation condition whenever the user changes the selection state of the base app such that the view's constraints are violated.  Users should refrain from altering the selection state of the base app at least until they are finished making use of the data in any one of the dynamic view charts.
• The right-click "Go to source" option on a Snapshot slide for a dynamic chart does not select the actual dynamic chart when changing the view to the base app sheet.
• Chart settings changes made to dynamic view charts using the Exploration menu are lost following refresh operation of the view.
• Dynamic Views currently does not support the Trellis extension.

Managing a Qlik Sense site

• The QMC Custom Property Edit page can currently handle a limited number of custom properties. If you want to edit custom property values in the QMC, we recommend keeping the amount of custom property values to a maximum of 500. If you want to just apply values without modifying them, the QMC can handle up to 10.000 custom property values.
• With the current architecture it is not possible, using security rule on HubSection_* resource, to hide "Open hub" link from the "Navigation" menu when accessing app as an anonymous user.
  Workaround: Use reverse proxy configured to redirect "Open hub" link to a preferable landing site
• When removing app objects from an application via QMC’s interface, deleted objects are not removed from that application’s binary file stored on the file system.
• Unable to hide "Open hub" link for anonymous user by using security rule. With the current architecture it is not possible, using security rule on HubSection_* resource, to hide "Open hub" link from the "Navigation" menu when accessing app as an anonymous user. Suggested workaround is to use reverse proxy configured to redirect "Open hub" to a preferable landing site.

• Windows service Qlik Engine cannot be started on a node where Engine service is disabled through QMC Description: Every time Windows restarts for that node, the Engine service will fail to start up and throw an error in Windows event logs. This can be prevented by temporary disable the Engine service in Windows service manager.
• Data connection passwords containing special characters are not properly encoded when updated via Qlik Management Console. Description: Data connection passwords containing special characters (such as "=", "%", or ";") are not correctly encoded when updated via the Qlik Management Console (QMC). This causes authentication errors when trying to connect to specific data sources, which could cause reload tasks to fail.
  The simplest workaround is to use the data load editor to update the password.
  Please note that once the password is updated, the name of the data connection is automatically appended with "(domain_userId)". This can be adjusted later on via the QMC.

Qlik Sense Desktop

• Qlik Sense Desktop can play WebM and Ogg, but not MP4 files due to limitations in Chromium.

Connectors

• REST connector: The Next token pagination option does not work when the pagination token has the same value for each page.
• For connectors in the ODBC Connectors Package, only the data types listed as supported in the online help have been verified to work correctly in the Preview and Script editor. However, ODBC Connector Package does not prevent the loading of other data types, so in some cases unsupported data types can be loaded with the load script.
• ODBC connector: If the user name on the Microsoft Windows system running Qlik Sense Desktop contains letters that are not English alphanumeric characters, database connectors in the ODBC Connector Package do not work properly. Workaround: Change the Windows system locale to the match the character set that contains the characters used in the user name. For example, if the System locale on the system running Qlik Sense Desktop is set to English and a user name contains Swedish characters, the System locale setting must be changed to Swedish for the ODBC connector to work properly.
• The Qlik Salesforce Connector does not support PK chunking on sharing objects. PK chunking is supported only on parent objects.
• Apache Phoenix connector does not support non-latin characters in metadata.
  Connector may return a corrupted data or unpredictable query results if running a query with non-latin characters in metadata: table names, column names, aliases, etc.

Cloud deployments and Multi-Cloud

• When downloading a pivot table in cloud environments (Qlik Sense Enterprise on Cloud Services and Qlik Sense Enterprise on Kubernetes), expanded rows are not included but stay collapsed.
