MCP for Data Engineering in Qlik Talend Cloud
The problem? Many roles across organizations are experimenting with AI tools alongside their existing analytics work. The results are often impressive... Show MoreThe problem?
Many roles across organizations are experimenting with AI tools alongside their existing analytics work. The results are often impressive at first glance, but harder to rely on once real business data is involved. Answers can sound confident while being difficult to validate, and it isn’t always clear which assumptions were made along the way.
This is typically a data context issue rather than a limitation of the models themselves. Enterprise data carries meaning beyond structure: definitions, ownership, quality signals, and constraints that have been established over time. When that context isn’t available, AI tools fill the gaps as best they can, which isn’t always desirable.
Support for the Model Context Protocol (MCP) in Qlik Talend Cloud directly addresses this issue by allowing AI-enabled tools to access governed Qlik assets directly, rather than working from extracts or simplified representations.
What is MCP and what does it offer?
In practical terms, MCP provides a standard, API-based way for external tools to interact with Qlik using the same permissions and governance that already apply in your environment. The assets exposed are the ones you have deliberately published and curated: data products, governed datasets, business definitions, lineage, and trust information.
MCP does not introduce alternative models or reinterpret your data. Instead, it makes existing assets available in a controlled and consistent way.
For data engineers who already use Qlik extensively, this is largely about extending the value of work you’ve already done. Many environments contain well-defined data layers, agreed metrics, and known data quality limitations. Historically, that context has been consumed primarily through dashboards and apps. When AI tools are introduced, teams often find themselves re-explaining definitions or validating results after the fact because that context isn’t shared.
Query Qlik Talend Cloud governed data sets directly within your AI assistant
With MCP, AI tools can access the same definitions and constraints from the outset. They can identify relevant datasets, understand how those datasets relate to one another, and recognize where limitations apply. This doesn’t remove the need for judgement, but it does make AI outputs easier to understand, explain, and trust.
This is particularly relevant in the early stages of analysis, where AI tools are often used to explore questions or test ideas before more formal work begins. When those early steps are based on governed assets rather than ad hoc context, the transition into dashboards or deeper analysis is more consistent and requires less rework.
Which MCP Tools are available?
Qlik is pleased to announce the first release in a scheduled rollout of MCP tool features for Qlik Talend Cloud customers, providing access to the following capabilities:
Search
Search for relevant Qlik resources using queries, enabling quick discovery of the right assets to work with.Datasets
Inspect datasets by viewing schema, freshness, samples, and metadata, and update dataset names and descriptions when required.Data Products
Create and manage data products, including retrieving metadata and documentation, updating properties and spaces, and activating or deactivating products.Data Quality
Check dataset quality signals, including quality computation status and trust score, and request quality recomputation when needed.Glossary
Create and manage business glossaries, including categories and terms; search for terms; link terms to resources; export glossary content; and update term status.Lineage
Retrieve lineage for datasets or apps to understand data origins, transformations, and downstream usage.These tools also support interaction with Qlik analytics content, allowing users to read chart data and metadata, inspect fields and values, and apply or clear selections for in-context exploration.
Running these capabilities from your AI client of choice results in persistent, governed assets within Qlik Talend Cloud, providing flexibility for engineering and analytics teams while maintaining consistency across the Data Fabric.
Full documentation is available here!
How does my team get started?
Support for MCP is available in Qlik Talend Cloud and must be explicitly enabled at the tenant level by an administrator. Once enabled, MCP provides API-based access to governed Qlik assets, respecting existing role-based permissions and security settings. These assets can then be accessed from your AI assistant of choice.
Add your data project to your AI assistant of choice
After connecting to your data, you may want to adjust the default permissions for the connector within your AI platform. For example, changing the default settings can help avoid repeated authorization prompts during use.
Once configured, users can interact naturally with their AI assistant, which will automatically surface the data and insights they are authorized to access based on their role.
MCP usage is metered using Qlik’s questions-based model, the same approach used by Qlik Answers. A question represents a logical interaction with Qlik through MCP, rather than individual technical calls. This helps keep usage predictable while teams experiment.
For existing Qlik Cloud customers, MCP includes an initial allocation of questions intended to support early, real-world use. This is typically sufficient to connect MCP to your AI assistant, explore governed data, and understand how it behaves with your own assets. In practice, the simplest way to get started is to identify a realistic scenario, grant access to the supporting data assets, and work hands-on with your AI assistant using a model that fits your needs.

Show MoreThe program has recently reached an important milestone with the introduction of Premium Analytics and Premium Data capabilities, giving educators and students access to powerful new tools that expand what can be taught — and what can be learned — with Qlik.
With the addition of Qlik Predict, learners can explore predictive analytics directly within their existing workflows, moving beyond traditional reporting to understand how forecasts and forward-looking insights can support real decision-making. Alongside this, Qlik Answers introduces a natural-language AI experience that enables users to ask questions and receive contextual responses based on their own data, helping make analytics more accessible while strengthening data literacy skills.
Another significant development is the inclusion of Qlik Talend Cloud licenses within the Academic Program. Data integration is an essential part of the analytics journey, yet it is often underrepresented in academic environments. By providing access to Qlik Talend Cloud, educators can now guide students through the entire process — from preparing and transforming data to building visualizations and exploring AI-driven analysis. This end-to-end experience reflects how organizations work with data in practice and helps bridge the gap between theory and industry expectations.
These new capabilities build on the broader Academic Program ecosystem, which continues to provide free access to structured learning pathways such as the Qlik Business Analyst and Data Architect learning plans. Combined with hands-on experience and the opportunity to earn Qlik product Qualifications, students can develop practical, industry-aligned skills that support their transition from education into the workplace.

Qlik Add-in now Available for Microsoft Word and PowerPoint
Qlik Cloud users can now create Word and PowerPoint reports in Qlik Cloud. What does this mean? Add-ins can be thought of as a sort of extension. In t... Show MoreQlik Cloud users can now create Word and PowerPoint reports in Qlik Cloud.
What does this mean?
Add-ins can be thought of as a sort of extension. In this case, we’re connecting our Qlik Cloud tenant to Microsoft Word and PowerPoint to make generating reports easier. So now, users can connect their tenants and import data from their apps directly into a Word Document or a PowerPoint presentation. For Word, these documents can be exported as either .docx, or .PDF formats, and PowerPoint allows for .pptx or .PDF as well.
For more information on this, please see the post in What’s New in Qlik Cloud here.
How can I set this up?
To begin setting these add-ons up, we first need to create a new OAuth client. Start by accessing your tenant, then hit the waffles menu in the top left-corner and select ‘Administration’. In the ‘Administration’ selection, we’ll then select ‘OAuth’. Inside of OAuth, we’ll click ‘Create new’. Our ‘Client type’ will be ‘single page application’. Name your client accordingly, and then select ‘user_default’ . Other Scopes may be selected, but you need to select ‘user_default’ or else the installation will not work.
For the ‘Add redirect URLs’ enter your tenant plus ‘office-add-ins/OAuthLoginSuccess.html’. So it should look like tenant.us.qlikcloud.com/office-add-ins/OAuthLoginSuccess.html . For your ‘Add allowed origins field, just add in your tenant URL. Then select Create.
Now we’ll download our manifest to add to Microsoft. This manifest is basically a handshake between your Qlik Cloud tenant and Word or PowerPoint, allowing Word and PowerPoint access to the tenant. To create this manifest click the waffle menu again and select ‘Settings’. From settings, select ‘Email and reports’ then go down to ‘Sharing and reports. Here you’ll see a dropdown, use that dropdown to select what you named your OAuth client and click ‘Download’. This will download a file named ‘manifest.xml’.
Now open either Microsoft PowerPoint or Word. Open a blank document and select ‘Add-ins’. It’s an orange box at the top right-hand corner of your screen. Once that opens, select ‘Advanced’, then ‘Upload My Add-in’, once that box opens, go to the destination of your manifest, and select it. This will finish implementing your Add-in.
If you have issues uploading your manifest, help can be found here.
Once your manifest is uploaded, if you receive the error below, this article may assist you.
So now that we have our Add-in set up in our Microsoft app, how can we use them?
Now we can click our Add-in and we’re greeted with this screen:
Here we’re asked to select the space, and the app we’re going to be pulling our information from. Once we’ve finalized where our information is coming from, we’re given this screen:
Our selections from left to right are:
Home: This option allows us to change what the source app is from our tenant and allow us to change our tenant.
With the Table option, I can display the data from any of my visualizations in a chart format. Please note that when assembling this report, instead of all of the data immediately imported onto your Word document, the data will not show until the report is generated.
With the Charts option, users can import any of the Charts from their app into their report.
The next option, Variables and expressions, allows users to change what is seen in the Word Document Report. Variables are very useful when creating a report template, for example, displaying the correct year when generating the report.
The Levels feature allows users to show a certain level of their data. For example, I could want to show the data for each product group. I could use the sales, margins and cost of each ‘Product Group’ in my application. I could sandwich those metrics between my ‘Product Group’ levels and when the report is generated it would show me those metrics for each ‘Product Group’.
Thank you for taking the time to read this post. If you would like to learn more about using the features of the Qlik Add-in for Word and PowerPoint, a great video series for the Excel version can be found here. How do you think you could use these Add-ins in your work life? Drop your ideas in a comment below.

New version of Direct Access gateway
The Qlik Data Gateway - Direct Access allows Qlik Sense SaaS applications to securely access behind the firewall data, over a strictly outbound, encrypted, and mutually authenticated connection.
We recently released Direct Access gateway 1.7.8 and 1.7.9 which, in addition to bug fixes, introduced the following enhancements:
- Support for the updated Databricks OAuth authentication options (mentioned in next section)
- Override the default starting port set by process isolation
- Support for the Application Default Credentials OAuth mechanism with Google BigQuery
- Support for metadata commands with process isolation
- Support for Brazil (br) and France (fr) regions
- New metrics collector offers basic logging and monitoring of resource utilization by Direct Access gateway, connectors, and the Operating System.
More authentication options for Databricks connector
Two additional authentication mechanisms are now available with the Databricks connector: Databricks OAuth Service Principal and Databricks OAuth User Account. In addition, authentication with Personal Access Token is now an explicit option and basic authentication (with username) is no longer available as it is no longer supported by Databricks.
New Connector: SAP OData
SAP has implemented restrictions on their customers on which technologies that can be used to source and extract data from SAP applications. While Qlik will continue to support all existing source endpoints, we have introduced an “SAP compliant” endpoint for customers. This new SAP OData source connector will use a secure web service connection to extract data from SAP applications.
API to enable and disable access to data sources
Qlik Cloud tenant administrators will now be able to update the access to a data source by enabling or disabling the related connectors. Disabling a connector will not only prevent access to the data source but will also hide it within the Qlik Cloud user interface (ex. Analytics activity center, Data manager, and Data load editor).
This capability is also available in Qlik Cloud Government and Qlik Cloud Government - DoD.
Qlik Automate (Formerly Qlik Application Automation)

As we wrap up the year and before everyone starts tying bows on projects, dashboards and wish lists, we wanted to add one more gift to the pile. Something that helps you move from insights to action faster, collaborate more easily, and keep your workflows flowing straight into the new year.
Unwrap Write Table, now available in Qlik Cloud Analytics.
Write Table is included with Premium, Enterprise, and Enterprise SaaS subscriptions. No add-ons or extra licensing required. You can find it in the Chart Library now.
A More Interactive Analytics Experience
Write Table introduces a new editable table chart that lets you update data, add context, validate decisions, and collaborate directly within your analytics apps. No reloads. No switching systems.
Just click, update, and watch your changes sync instantly across active sessions.
And because it’s built natively into Qlik Cloud Analytics, it seamlessly integrates into your existing workflows, transforming your apps into actionable workspaces.
"Probably the most awaited feature for customers who want to turn insights into action. Write table closes the gap between analytics and transaction applications, offering a compelling solution for those who always want to take it a step further. "
— Henri Rufin, Head of Data & Analytics, RadialFrom Decisions to Automation
Now you can capture decisions and act on them.
With real-time syncing and change tracking, every update you make in a Write Table is stored in a Qlik-managed database called a “change store” that can be exported and connected into Qlik Automate workflows. That means approvals, changes, or comments made in an app can instantly trigger downstream processes.
From updating operational records... to routing approvals... to notifying teams... to pushing changes into your operational systems....
Write Table helps you move smoothly from insight -> decision -> action in one place.
“The new Write Table is a game-changing addition to Qlik's data and analytics solution. It allows our users to interact with the data, add context to their insights and collaborate effortlessly within the same trusted end-to-end platform. We're going to use it for everything, from updating data easily to seamlessly integrating with third-party tools using Qlik Automate workflows.”
— Sebastian Björkqvist, Solution Lead, Fellowmind
Key Highlights
- Editable table chart for updating values, adding comments, and capturing decisions in the Chart Library
- Real-time sync across active sessions, without reloads
- Qlik-managed change store for secure update handling
- Integration with Qlik Automate to trigger downstream workflows and orchestrate actions

- Refreshed App Settings Design
The app-settings area has been refurbished with a more modern layout and tabbed navigation between categories of settings.
Why this matters:- Saves time when configuring apps
- Helps with onboarding and reducing configuration errors
- Improvements to the Sheet Editing Experience
Several usability upgrades have landed in the sheet-edit experience:
- The source table viewer and filters now appear directly from the sheet edit view, so you can see data tables and fields in-context.
- Filters have been added to the properties panel, making building and applying filters to visualizations faster.
Why this matters: - Makes authoring apps more intuitive and reduces back-and-forth between data manager and sheet view
- Helps streamline development, speeding time to insight
- New Straight Table — Now the Default
The new straight table object has graduated and is now included under the chart section as the default table visual. The older table object remains accessible in the asset panel for now and its eventual deprecation will be announced well in advance.
Why this matters:- The new straight table has enhanced usability (such as improved selection, sorting, performance)
- Encourages migration to the newer, better-supported table, ahead of eventual deprecation
- New Visual Enhancements & Chart Capabilities
Some powerful visual upgrades arrived in this release:
- Indent row setting in the new pivot table: For the new pivot table object, you can now choose “indent row dimensions” for a more compact view (ideal for text-heavy tables)
- Pivot table indicators: The new pivot table also supports icons and colors based on thresholds, enabling quick visual cues on measures.
- Shapes in bar and combo charts: Building on the success of shapes in line charts, you can now add shapes to bar and combo charts, enriching context and visual data literacy.
- Line chart shapes improved: For line charts, labels and symbols (size, color, placement) are now available in the shape options.
- Org chart now supports images & new styling: The org-chart object can now include an image via URL and enhanced styling settings making hierarchy charts look sharper.
- Map chart stability enhancements: Map charts now use a local webmap rather than one from Qlik’s servers resulting in faster load times and improved stability.
Why this matters: - These visual enhancements offer more expressive, compelling dashboards and reduce friction for authors
- Stability enhancements (e.g., for maps) reduce risk of user-experience issues in production
- Removal of Deprecated Objects
With this release, we are updating our announcement from our Qlik Sense May 2025 release regarding the roadmap for removing deprecated visualization objects. The following deprecated charts are now scheduled to be removed from the Qlik Analytics distribution in May 2027.
- Bar & area
- Bullet chart (old one)
- Heatmap chart
- Button for navigation
- Share button
- Show/hide container
- Container (old one)
In Closing
The November 2025 release for Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows delivers meaningful improvements across usability, visualizations, and stability. Whether you're an analytics author, a business user, or an administrator/architect, there are advantages to be gained with this release.
As always, we recommend reviewing the full “What’s New” documentation and aligning your upgrade and adoption strategy accordingly.

Salesforce announced (October 31st, 2025) that it is postponing the deprecation of the Use Any API Client user permission. See Deprecating "Use Any API Client" User Permission for details.
Qlik will keep the OAUT plans on the roadmap to deliver them in time with Salesforce's updated plans.
Salesforce has announced the deprecation of the Use Any API Client user permission. For details, see Deprecating "Use Any API Client" User Permission | help.salesforce.com.
We understand that this is a security-related change, and Qlik is actively addressing it by developing Qlik Replicate support for OAuth Authentication. This work is a top priority for our team at present.
If you are affected by this change and have activated access policies relying on this permission, we recommend reaching out to Salesforce to request an extension. We are aware that some customers have successfully obtained an additional month of access.
By the end of this extension period, we expect to have an alternative solution in place using OAuth.
Customers using the Qlik Replicate tool to read data from the Salesforce source should be aware of this change.Thank you for your understanding and cooperation as we work to ensure a smooth transition.
If you have any questions, we're happy to assist. Reply to this blog post or take your queries to our Support Chat.Thank you for choosing Qlik,

We are thrilled to be recognizing the efforts of these individuals to help the Qlik Academic Program to achieve its mission - to create a data literate world, one student at a time. Each ambassador has been selected through a self-nominated application process, where they were required to answer various questions covering their motivations for becoming an ambassador, and to evidence their passion for upskilling their students in analytics over the past 12 months. This year, we are excited to select another 16 ambassadors, 3 new ones and 13 returning ambassadors whose efforts continued to impress us. By way of thanks for their efforts our ambassadors will receive exclusive benefits such as webinars and discussion groups with Qlik leaders, opportunities to showcase their experience with the Qlik Academic Program and the chance to grow their network with other educators across various fields and geographies.
Throughout 2026 our ambassadors will continue their advocacy for the Qlik Academic Program and help us to reach even more students and educators with our free resources. Stay tuned over the coming months for more in-depth profiles on each of our ambassadors, and get to know who they are, what they teach and why they are so passionate about bridging the data literacy skills gap!

How will this affect me?
You will be largely unaffected. Access to our existing and up-to-date portal is not impacted by this change, meaning chat, knowledge, and your support cases remain exactly where you expect them to.
Did you know? We're launching additional My Account features for customerportal.qlik.com. Read more here in Your Qlik Customer Portal My Account features.
I used to access my licenses on the old portal. Where do I go now?
If you previously accessed your legacy (perpetual) Qlik licenses and control numbers on support.qlik.com, your next stop is our Support Chat. A live agent will share the license, control number, and LEF with you on request.

Show MoreIn today’s job market, data literacy and analytics skills are among the most sought-after capabilities employers look for. To help prepare students for meaningful careers in analytics, business intelligence, and data science, Qlik’s Academic Program is making waves in universities across India and the Asia Pacific — providing students with hands-on experience, real tools, and industry-recognized qualifications that boost employability and spark innovation.
The Qlik Academic Program gives students and educators free access to Qlik’s powerful analytics platform, Qlik Sense, along with a suite of learning resources, training modules, and qualifications — all at no cost. This means students can learn real analytics skills long before entering the workforce.
Whether you’re studying business, computer science, engineering, or humanities, you can use Qlik to:
-
Analyze real data and build interactive visualizations
-
Understand patterns and trends that drive decision-making
-
Apply analytics to real business challenges — just like professionals do
This practical, hands-on experience helps students not just learn theory, but do analytics. Instead of just reading about data visualization or BI dashboards, they build them. That’s a major differentiator when employers review resumes.
One of the most powerful aspects of the program is the ability for students to earn qualifications and digital badges — such as Qlik Sense Business Analyst and Qlik Sense Data Architect that they can display on their CVs and LinkedIn profiles. These credentials signal to recruiters that the student can effectively use analytics tools that many corporations rely on.
Case studies from institutions in India show how Qlik has enhanced employability. For example, at Christ University, analytics graduates with Qlik skills have seen high job placement rates and report that their hands-on Qlik experience helped them stand out in interviews and secure roles in analytics and BI.
The reach of the Qlik Academic Program continues to expand. In India alone, over 1100+ universities and institutions are now part of the initiative, including leading IITs, IIMs, and top MBA programs.
Institutions like Kristu Jayanti University have embedded Qlik into their core curriculum, allowing students to earn academic credit while mastering analytics skills — a huge step toward integrating practical analytics into mainstream education.
It’s not just students who benefit. Educators receive ready-to-teach content, exercises, sample datasets, and guided teaching materials that make it easier to bring analytics into the classroom. This support helps universities continuously upgrade their curricula to reflect evolving industry needs.
As industries increasingly rely on data-driven decision-making, businesses everywhere — from startups to global corporations — seek professionals who can interpret and act on data insights. With programs like Qlik’s Academic initiative, students are graduating not just with academic knowledge, but with practical analytics skills that employers value.
Whether students want to become data analysts, BI specialists, or business leaders with strong analytical acumen, tools like Qlik provide the foundation they need to launch and grow their careers in the competitive world of data analytics.

Show MoreAn update deployed to Qlik Cloud Analytics on January 14th, 2026, impacted the creation and scheduling of end user subscriptions (see Scheduling reports with subscriptions). Any selections made (to reduce the distributed data set) before creating the subscription were not properly saved. As a result, the subscriptions are executed without any filters applied.

What action do I need to take?
Users who created subscriptions during this period (January 14th to 19th) should review their subscriptions and the selections that are stored for the subscription. If the desired data selections are not in place, then the user should remove the current subscription and add a new subscription with the desired selections in place.
To verify if a subscription has selections:
- Click the navigation menu (waffle menu)
- Go to Analytics
- Go to Subscriptions
- Select the subscription
-
In the Details tab, locate the Data field and review the subscription’s Selections
For more information on this feature, see Scheduling reports with subscriptions.
What time frame is affected?

- 14th of January 2026 15:47 UTC
- to 19th of January 2026 12:10 UTC
