  ダッシュボード上で直接入力・編集が可能に！ Qlik Cloud の新機能 「ライトテーブル」

  従来のBIツールでは、ダッシュボードで分析した内容を踏まえ次のアクションを取るために他システムへ入力したり、Excelでデータを修正して再度取り込み、また確認するといった作業が必要でした。分析画面と日常業務がつながっていないと、気付きを反映するまでに時間がかかったり、担当者間で認識がずれたりするケースも少なくありません。 こうした課題に応える新機能として、Qlik Cloudに「Write table（ライトテーブル）」が追加されました。これは分析画面上に配置できる編集可能なテーブルで、ユーザーが直接セルに入力したり、プルダウンを使って更新することができます。複数人による同時編集にも対応しており、行単位でロックされるため競合が起きません。編集内容は“change store”に保存され、APIを使って外部システムとの連携や自動化フローのトリガーとして利用することも可能です。 この機能がもたらす価値は、「分析」と「実務」がこれまで以上に近づく点にあります。例えば在庫数の修正、配送ステータ...

  従来のBIツールでは、ダッシュボードで分析した内容を踏まえ次のアクションを取るために他システムへ入力したり、Excelでデータを修正して再度取り込み、また確認するといった作業が必要でした。分析画面と日常業務がつながっていないと、気付きを反映するまでに時間がかかったり、担当者間で認識がずれたりするケースも少なくありません。

  こうした課題に応える新機能として、Qlik Cloudに「Write table（ライトテーブル）」が追加されました。これは分析画面上に配置できる編集可能なテーブルで、ユーザーが直接セルに入力したり、プルダウンを使って更新することができます。複数人による同時編集にも対応しており、行単位でロックされるため競合が起きません。編集内容は“change store”に保存され、APIを使って外部システムとの連携や自動化フローのトリガーとして利用することも可能です。

  この機能がもたらす価値は、「分析」と「実務」がこれまで以上に近づく点にあります。例えば在庫数の修正、配送ステータスの更新、営業案件の進捗管理、社内コメントの書き込みなど、従来であれば別システムで行っていた作業を、Qlikアプリ内で完結できるようになります。特にビジネス部門において、現場が気付いた内容をその場で即時反映できることは大きな強みです。

  さらに、外部システム連携や自動化機能（Qlik Automate）を組み合わせれば、入力内容をもとに通知や外部システム更新を自動化するなど、「分析 → 編集 → 実行」を継ぎ目なく実現できます。BIを見るためのツールから意思決定と実行を支えるプラットフォームへ進化させたい企業にとって、Write tableは大きな一歩となるでしょう。

  データ修正の二度手間を減らし、ダッシュボードと現場作業を自然につなぐ体験が、業務プロセスの質を大きく変えるはずです。ぜひ一度試してみてください。

   

  Write tableは、Qlik Cloud Analytics Premium以上のサブスクリプション、または Qlik Sense Enterprise SaaS でご利用いただけます。

  Qlik Trail: an extension to record, replay, and share your selection journeys

  When I’m exploring a Qlik app, I often want to show exactly how I reached a view—without typing instructions or jumping on a call. Qlik Trail is a small extension I created that does just that: Click Record, make your selections, and you’ll get a tidy list of steps that you can replay from start to finish, or jump to a specific step.

  When I’m exploring a Qlik app, I often want to show exactly how I reached a view—without typing instructions or jumping on a call.

  Qlik Trail is a small extension I created that does just that: Click Record, make your selections, and you’ll get a tidy list of steps that you can replay from start to finish, or jump to a specific step. Then, when you’re happy with the journey, you can export the trail as JSON and hand it to someone else so they can import and run the same sequence on their side.

  Why not just use bookmarks?

  Bookmarks are great for destinations (one final selection state). Qlik Trail is more about the path:

  • Multiple steps in a defined order (A → B → C)

  • Replay from start for narration or Replay a specific step 

  • Export/import a whole journey, not a bunch of one-offs

  You can use bookmarks to save a point in time, and use Qlik Trail when the sequence matters more.

  What can you do with the Qlik Trail extension?

  • Record steps manually, or toggle Auto to capture each change

  • Name, duplicate, reorder, delete, or ungroup steps

  • Organize steps into Groups (Executive Story, Sales Ops, Training, …)

  • Replay to here (apply one step) or Replay from start (play the group)

  • Export / Import trails as JSON

  

  Demo

  Before we go into how the extension was built, let's see a demo of how it can be used.

  I’ll share two practical trails an Executive Story and Sales Ops with selections you can record and replay on your end, for this demo I'll use the Consumer Goods Sales app (which you can get here: https://explore.qlik.com/details/consumer-goods-sales)

  Setup

  • Upload the extension .zip file in the Management Console, then add Qlik Trail (custom object) to a sheet.

  • Optional: enable Auto-record in the object’s properties if you want every change captured while you explore.

  • Toolbar (left to right): Record, Replay from start, Delete, Delete all, Auto, Group filter, New group, Export, Import.

   

  Trail 1 — Executive Story

  Create Group: Executive Story

  Step 0 — “US overview: top categories”
  Selections: (none)

  Step 1 — “Northeast · Fresh Vegetables”
  Selections: Region = Northeast, Product Group = Fresh Vegetables

  Step 2 — “Northeast · Cheese (A/B)”
  Selections: Region = Northeast, Product Group = Cheese
  quick A/B inside the same region.

  Step 3 — “West vs Northeast · Fresh Fruit”
  Selections: Region = West, Northeast, Product Group = Fresh Fruit
  same category across two regions to see differences.

  Step 4 — “Northeast focus: PA · Fresh Fruit”
  Selections: Region = Northeast, State = Pennsylvania, Product Group = Fresh Fruit
  drill to a particular state.

  Presenting: select the group → Replay from start. If questions land on Step 4, use Replay to here.

  

  Trail 2 — Sales Ops Story

  Create Group: Sales Ops Story

  Step 1 — “South · Ice Cream & Juice (summer basket)”
  Selections: Region = South, Product Group = Ice Cream, Juice

  Step 2 — “Central · Hot Dogs (promo check-in)”
  Selections: Region = Central, Product Group = Hot Dogs

  Step 3 — “West · Cheese (margin look)”
  Selections: Region = West, Product Group = Cheese

  Tips when building trails

  • One idea per step. (Region + Category) or (Region + a couple of States)

  • Duplicate then tweak for fast A/B comparisons

  • Group by audience. Exec, Ops, Training

  • Ungrouped steps = scratchpad. Move into a group when it’s ready

  • After recording, drag to reorder so replay tells a clean story

  Sharing your trails

  Click Export to download qliktrail_export_YYYY-MM-DD_HHMM.json.

  Your teammate can Import, pick a group, and hit Replay from start. Same steps, same order—no instructions needed.

  Tech notes

  1) Module & CSS injection
  Load CSS once at runtime so the object stays self-contained:

  define(['qlik','jquery','./properties','text!./style.css'], function(qlik, $, props, css){
    if (!document.getElementById('qliktrail-style')) {
      const st = document.createElement('style');
      st.id = 'qliktrail-style';
      st.textContent = css;
      document.head.appendChild(st);
    }
    // …
  });

  2) Capturing selections per state
  Read SelectionObject, group by qStateName, then fetch only selected rows via a lightweight list object. Store both text and numeric to be resilient to numeric fields:

  app.getList('SelectionObject', function(m){
    // build grouped { state -> [fields] }
  });
  ...
  app.createList({
    qStateName: stateName || '$',
    qDef: { qFieldDefs: [fieldName] },
    qInitialDataFetch: [{ qTop:0, qLeft:0, qWidth:1, qHeight:10000 }]
  }).then(obj => obj.getLayout() /* collect S/L/XS states */);

  Snapshot (what we export/import):

  {
    "ts": "2025-03-10T14:30:00Z",
    "states": [
      {
        "state": "$",
        "fields": {
          "Region": { "text": ["Northeast"], "num": [] },
          "Product Group": { "text": ["Fresh Vegetables"], "num": [] }
        }
      }
    ]
  }

  3) Replaying selections
  Clear target state, then select values. Prefer numbers when available; fall back to text:

  app.clearAll(false, state);
  ...
  field.selectValues(pack.num.map(n=>({qNumber:n})), false, false)
  // fallback to qText
  field.selectValues(pack.text.map(t=>({qText:String(t)})), false, false);

  4) Auto-record with a quiet window
  Avoid recording during replays to prevent ghost steps:

  ui.replayQuietUntil = Date.now() + (layout.props.replayQuietMs || 1200);
  if (Date.now() >= ui.replayQuietUntil && ui.autoOn) record();

  5) Groups, ordering & persistence
  Trails live in localStorage per app key. Groups look like { id, name, members:[stepId,…] }. Ordering is a simple seq integer; drag-and-drop reassigns seq inside the open list.

  

   

  That’s Qlik Trail in a nutshell. It lets you hit record, name a few steps, and replay the story without hand-holding anyone through filters. Use Bookmarks to keep states, but Trail will help you keep tack of the sequence.

  P.S: this extension is a work-in-progress experiment and not prod-ready, I'm planning to add more features to it and make it more stable in the future.

  As we enter the last month of the year, let’s review some recent enhancements in Qlik Cloud Analytics visualizations and apps. On a continuous cycle, features are being added to improve usability, development and appearance. Let’s’ look at a few of them.

  Straight Table

  Let’s begin with the straight table. Now, when you create a straight table in an app, you will have access to column header actions, enabled by default. Users can quickly sort any field by clicking on the column header. The sort order (ascending or descending) will be indicated by the arrow. Users can also perform a search in a column by clicking the magnifying glass.

  

  When the magnifying glass icon is clicked, the search menu is displayed as seen below.

  

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

  If a cyclic dimension is being used in the straight table, users can cycle through the dimensions using the cyclic icon that is now visible in the column heading (see below).

  

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

  When you have an existing straight table in an app, these new features will not be visible by default but can easily be enabled in the properties panel by going to Presentation > Accessibility and unchecking Increase accessibility.

  

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

  Bar Chart

  The bar chart now has a new feature that allows the developer to set a custom width of the bar when in continuous mode. Just last week, I put the bar chart below in continuous mode and the bars became very thin as seen below.

  

  But now, there is this period drop down that allows developers to indicate the unit of the data values.

  

  If I select Auto to automatically detect the period, the chart looks so much better.

  

  Combo Chart

  In a combo chart, a line can now be styled using area versus just a line, as displayed below.

  

  Sheet Thumbnails

  One of the coolest enhancements is the ability to auto-generate sheet thumbnails. What a time saver. From the sheet properties, simply click on the Generate thumbnail icon and the thumbnail will be automatically created. No more creating the sheet thumbnails manually by taking screenshots and uploading them and assigning them to the appropriate sheet. If you would like to use another image, that option is still available in the sheet properties.

  From this                              To this in one click

   

   

  Try out these new enhancements to make development and analysis faster and more efficient.

  Thanks,

  Jennell

  Starting January 12, 2026, the 30-second interval option will no longer be available in the Qlik Automate scheduler. 

  This update prepares Qlik Automate for a future upgrade that will bring enhanced scheduling capabilities that are consistent with other Qlik products, including:

  • Support for specific days and dates
  • Configurable time windows

  How will this affect me?

  All automations using the 30-second interval will continue to work and run on the 30-second interval for now.

  At a yet to be decided date, automations that still use a 30-second interval will be migrated to a 1-minute interval. Subscribe to this blog post to stay informed.

  What actions do I need to take?

  Please review your automations that use 30-second intervals to ensure they will function properly with a 1-minute interval. 

   

  Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or address our experts directly in the Qlik Automate forum.

   

  Thank you for choosing Qlik,

  Regular Expressions in Qlik: Finally Native

  Regex has been one of the most requested features in Qlik Sense for years, and now it’s finally here. With this year's May 2025 release, Qlik added native support for regular expressions in both load scripts and chart expressions.

  Regex has been one of the most requested features in Qlik Sense for years, and now it’s finally here.

  With this year's May 2025 release, Qlik added native support for regular expressions in both load scripts and chart expressions. That means you can validate formats, extract values, clean up messy text, and more, all without complex string logic or external preprocessing.

  In this post, we’ll look at what’s new, how it compares to the old workarounds, and a practical example you can plug into your own app.
  
  

  The New Regex Functions

  Regex (short for Regular Expression) is a compact way to define text patterns. If you’ve used it in Python, JavaScript, or other programming languages, the concept will feel familiar.

  Qlik now includes native support for regular expressions with functions that work in load scripts and chart expressions:

  • MatchRegEx() – check if a value matches a pattern

  • ExtractRegEx() – extract the first substring that matches

  • ReplaceRegEx() – search and replace based on a pattern

  • SubFieldRegEx() – split text using regex as the delimiter

  There are also group-based versions (ExtractRegExGroup, etc.), case-insensitive variants (MatchRegExI), and helpers like CountRegEx() and IsRegEx().

  🔗 Help Article
  
  

  Replacing Old Patterns

  Here's where regex saves time:

  • Format validation: Replace nested Len(), Left(), and Mid() with a single pattern.
    
    
  • Substring extraction: Skip the manual slicing; let the pattern do the work.
    
    

  • Pattern-based replacements: Clean or reformat values without chaining multiple functions.

   

  With regex:

  If(MatchRegEx(Code, '^[A-Z]{2}-\d{5}$'), 'Valid', 'Invalid')  // check format
  
  ExtractRegEx(Text, '\d{5}')                                   // get first 5-digit number
  
  ReplaceRegEx(Field, '\D', '')                                 // strip non-digits

  Cleaner logic. Fewer steps. Easier to maintain.
  
  

  Use Cases That Just Got Easier

  If any of the following sound familiar, regex will help:

  • Format checks: postal codes, product SKUs, ID numbers.

  • Data extraction: get domain from email, number from notes, etc.

  • PII masking: hide parts of a SSN or credit card.

  • String cleanup: strip unwanted characters, normalize spacing.

  • Splitting tricky fields: CSV lines with quoted commas, mixed delimiters.

  Keep in mind that these functions can be used directly in chart expression, so you can build visuals or filters based on pattern logic, not just static values.

  
  Example: Clean and Validate Phone Numbers

  Let’s say you’ve got a bunch of phone numbers like this:

  (312) 678-4412  
  312-678-4412  
  3126784412  
  123-678-4412    // invalid: area code starts with 1  
  312-045-4412    // invalid: exchange starts with 0  
  312-678-441     // invalid: too short  
  

   

  You want to:

  1. Validate that it’s a proper 10-digit North American number

  2. Standardize the format to (###) ###-####

  Here’s how to do it with regex in your load script:

  LOAD
      RawPhone,
  
      // 1. Strip out anything that's not a digit
      ReplaceRegEx(RawPhone, '\D', '') as DigitsOnly,
  
      // 2. Validate: 10 digits exactly, starting with 2–9
      If(MatchRegEx(RawPhone, '^\(?[2-9]\d{2}\)?[-.\s]?\d{3}[-.\s]?\d{4}$'),
          'Valid', 'Invalid') as Status,
  
      // 3. Standardize format to (###) ###-####
      ReplaceRegEx(
          ReplaceRegEx(RawPhone, '\D', ''), 
          '(\d{3})(\d{3})(\d{4})', 
          '(\1) \2-\3'
      ) as FormattedPhone
  
  INLINE [
      RawPhone
      3025557890
      (404) 222-8800
      678.333.1010
      213 888 9999
      1035559999
      678-00-0000
      55577
  ];
  

   

  Result:

   

  

  One pattern replaces multiple conditions and formatting is consistent. This is much easier to maintain and easy to expand if the rules change.

  
  Final Thoughts

  • Use regex where it adds value.
    For simple cases like Left() or Trim(), stick with built-in string functions.
    
    
  • When you're working with inconsistent inputs, embedded formats, or anything that doesn’t follow clean rules, regex can save a lot of time.
    
    
  • If you're applying regex across large datasets, especially in charts, it’s better to handle it in the load script where possible.

  Not sure how to write the pattern?

  Tools like regex101.com or regexr.com are great for testing and adjusting before you build in Qlik.

   

  With native regex in Qlik Sense, you can now clean, validate, extract, and transform text with precision without convoluted scripts or third-party tools. It’s a quiet but powerful upgrade that unlocks a ton of flexibility for real-world data.

  Education in Brazil is changing fast, and data skills are becoming more important every day,especially with the rise of AI. That’s why the Qlik Academic Program is gaining so much attention across the country. More universities, teachers, and students are discovering how Qlik can help them learn and grow.

  Teachers across Brazil are using Qlik to update their classes and give students a taste of what today’s job market looks like. Whether it’s a workshop, a guest lecture, professor training, a Qlik Sense demo, or a presentation about the Academic Program in São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Paraná, Florianópolis, Paraíba, and beyond, the Academic Program offers simple, collaborative, and flexible ways to learn about data.

  Brazil has a strong culture of creativity and learning, which aligns perfectly with Qlik’s mission. The Academic Program gives students and teachers free access to high-quality learning materials. Students can explore data, practice real-world skills, and even earn recognized certificates. Teachers also receive ready-to-use resources that make it easy to bring Qlik into their lessons.

  As the Qlik Academic Program continues to grow in Brazil, these collaborations represent something bigger than expansion. Whether you're studying in Porto Alegre, teaching in Recife, or researching in Manaus, the goal is the same: to help everyone learn and succeed.

  Namespaces for REST and Events APIs are being introduced in Qlik Cloud to support the growing number of APIs and services in the platform, and to unlock versioning support in the future. This change makes it easier for you to find, understand, and use Qlik APIs by grouping related resources by context, as well as standardizing the interface for the APIs.

  To learn more, see the API namespaces overview page on qlik.dev.

  What to expect

  • The new namespaced APIs will be introduced in parallel with the existing APIs.
  • The existing APIs will be deprecated and removed after a minimum 12-month deprecation period from the notice of deprecation on the changelog (qlik.dev).
  • No immediate action is needed. As each API is namespaced, a deprecation notice will be published with migration guides.

  Key changes

  REST

  1. Removal of v1 from the path: v1 will be removed from the path to prepare for versioning support in the future.
  2. Grouping resources by context: Related APIs will be grouped together under a namespace which indicates in which context the resources are applicable. For example:
     • The analytics namespace for Analytics-specific resources such as apps, notes, and ODAGs apps.
     • The core namespace for platform-wide resources such as users, groups, ip-policies, and roles.
  3. Standardization of interfaces: The payloads for the new namespaced APIs will be standardized to be compliant with Qlik’s API design principles, meaning improved consistency of payloads, query parameters, and response formats between different APIs, irrespective of the context.

  Events

  Events will adhere to the same namespace rule to avoid conflict of resource names and to match the REST resources. This changes the pattern from com.qlik.v<version>.<eventContext>.<action> to com.qlik.<namespace>.<eventContext>.<action>.

  Qlik Data Gateway - Direct Access versions 1.4 and 1.5 are reaching End of Life by January 31st, 2026*.

  The original announcement can be read in Direct Access gateway versions 1.4 and 1.5 reaching End of Life by January 31st, 2026.

  How will this affect me?

  Both versions will stop working after reaching End of Life. We recommend you plan to upgrade to the latest available version of the currently supported 1.7.x as soon as possible.

  How do I upgrade?

  For the upgrade procedure, please refer to Upgrading Qlik Data Gateway - Direct Access on Qlik's online help. This page also lists all the significant changes for each version.

  The upgrade to 1.7.x from 1.4 or 1.5 has been thoroughly tested, and the process is expected to be smooth. However, please follow the steps carefully and always take a backup before upgrading. It is also worth noting that .NET 8.x is required (from v1.6.6) and will be automatically installed during the upgrade.

  What else do I need to keep in mind?

  Several configuration settings were added in later versions of the Direct Access gateway that may apply to your deployment. Therefore, please review all details in the online help on Configuring and troubleshooting Qlik Data Gateway - Direct Access. Note that most Direct Access gateway settings can be configured in the Qlik Cloud Administration activity center (from v1.7.2).

  Always upgrade to the latest version!

   

  If you have questions or need additional assistance, our forums are always open to you, and Support is only a chat away.

   

  Thank you for choosing Qlik,
  Qlik Support

   

  * The previously announced date was set for December 31st, 2025, and was later extended until January the following year.

  Qlik Dropbox connectors: Deprecation of long-lived access tokens

  Hello Qlik admins and developers, Previously, the Dropbox API used only long-lived access tokens. These long-lived access tokens have been deprecated since the fall of 2022, and only short-lived access tokens are created. Long-lived tokens remain usable for existing authentications.

  Hello Qlik admins and developers,

  Previously, the Dropbox API used only long-lived access tokens. These long-lived access tokens have been deprecated since the fall of 2022, and only short-lived access tokens are created. Long-lived tokens remain usable for existing authentications.

  The Qlik Dropbox connectors have maintained the use of long-lived access tokens, and it is now time to deprecate these tokens and remove them. We aim to end support for long-lived tokens by October 31, 2025.

  What action do I need to take?

  Re-authenticate to avoid interruption.

  You will not have to take action for connection definitions created in Qlik products released from 2023 and onwards, and which were created or re-authenticated after 2022.

  This is applicable to the following scenarios:

  • Qlik Sense: Client Managed and Qlik Cloud
    • Dropbox file location connector
    • Dropbox Metadata connector
  • Qlik Web Connector Standalone
    • Qlik Dropbox Connector

  If you are using a long-lived access token in a Dropbox connection definition, you must follow the steps below to re-authenticate. This can be done proactively at any time, which will avoid the connections from breaking.

  What if I do not re-authenticate in time?

  Your connections will stop working once the long-lived access token expires. You can still re-authenticate in the same way at a later time; your connection will be repaired, and your reloads will work again.

  Is there some way for me to identify the connections?

  Unfortunately, there is no indication showing which type of token is used. However, if you are not sure when the connection was created or last re-authenticated, there is no harm in re-authenticating, regardless of whether it is necessary or not. 

  How to re-authenticate in Qlik Sense: Client Managed and Qlik Cloud

  To re-authenticate the Dropbox connectors in Qlik Sense, update the connection within the Data load editor, then select Authenticate and follow the on-screen process to retrieve a new Authentication Code. Verify and Save the connection when done.

  How to re-authenticate the Qlik Web Connector: Standalone

  Re-authenticate via the CanAuthenticate table by selecting to Clear the current Authentication Token, and then Authenticate to get a new Authentication Token. Save and Run when done.

  Additional recommendations

  While performing this review of your Dropbox connection definitions, it may also be an opportunity to remove any redundant connection definitions not in use.
