    An update is being deployed to Qlik Cloud tenants starting May 28th (today), offering improved governance of the Qlik Analytics mobile app. See Setting permissions for the Qlik Analytics mobile app.

     

    What does the update include?

    A new version of the Qlik Analytics mobile app is now available for download (in app stores). In addition, Tenant Administrators can now manage user access using three scopes:

    • Allowed (standard mobile app access)
    • Not Allowed (mobile app access denied)
    • Allowed with Intune (mobile access with mandatory Intune enrollment)

    In addition to access controls, these scopes strengthen the Microsoft Intune integration through a new server-side control for MAM deployment, replacing the previously user-controlled MAM toggle.

     

    What does this mean for me?

    The update takes effect once users update to the latest version of the mobile app. For most existing users, there will be no impact, as the default scope is set to Allowed, a control point not available in the previous release.

     

    If you use Qlik Analytics and Intune

    The following two things need to be taken into consideration:

    • The solution now requires Microsoft Edge as the browser for the Qlik Cloud authorization flow.
    • If you have deployed the Qlik Analytics app via MDM Intune, you will need to modify the scope for those users to be Allowed with Intune.
      Some users may experience authentication issues after updating to the new version of the mobile app if this configuration is not completed by the Tenant Administrator.

    Reference the configuration specifications for more information:

    Upcoming changes to how CSS for custom Qlik Analytics themes is handled

    Qlik is introducing changes to how custom themes in Qlik Analytics applications are handled, which may impact your CSS-styled themes if they include unsupported CSS modifications. This also applies to other means of modifying the CSS, such as the sheet input box, the Multi KPI CSS input, or any other 3rd party extension that allows CSS input.  These changes will impact both Qlik Cloud Analytics and Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows.

    Qlik is introducing changes to how custom themes in Qlik Analytics applications are handled, which may impact your CSS-styled themes if they include unsupported CSS modifications. This also applies to other means of modifying the CSS, such as the sheet input box, the Multi KPI CSS input, or any other 3rd party extension that allows CSS input. 

    These changes will impact both Qlik Cloud Analytics and Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows.

    For more information about custom themes, see Uploading and managing themes.

     

    Why are these changes being made?

    These changes improve how theming works in Qlik Analytics applications, which will enable us to deliver better-looking dashboards and generally enhanced theming.

     

    What is being changed?

    We’re restructuring theme settings:

    • Removal of base card CSS overrides
    • A theme with the _cards:true setting gets the base styles imported as JSON into the theme
    • Removal of extra title padding for objects without title in a cards theme
    • Replace the following with theme JSON settings:
      • padding: applied on object level; the gap between border and object
      • margin: applied on sheet level; the gap between objects

    And we are adding new themes:

    • Foundation (default)
    • New Horizon

     

    How can I verify if my themes are affected?

    1. Open any app that uses your custom theme and append the following to the URL:  /feature/CLIENT_TLV_1804_LESS_CARDS 

      This will enable the flag to run your themes with the changes before they are released.

      append CLIENT_TLV_1804_LESS_CARDS.png

    2. Verify that everything looks as you expect it to
    3. Review your browser's developer tools for any eventual JavaScript errors 

     

    Future-proof your themes

    We’ve compiled a list of supported styling options for you that can already replace the need for custom CSS. See Obsolete CSS modifications.

    Additionally, see the table below for an overview of the new theme properties that you can use in your theme instead of CSS. You will first need to enable the /feature/CLIENT_TLV_1804_LESS_CARDS flag to see them in effect in the application.

    Theme Option Path in theme JSON Example
    Sheet background

    sheet.backgroundColor


    "sheet": { "backgroundColor": "#f2f2f2"
    }

    Sheet margin

    sheet.margin


    "sheet": { "margin": "10px"
    }

    Object paddings

    object.padding


    "object": { "padding": "20px" // or "10px 10px 5px 10px"
    }

    Borders


    object.borderWidth


    "object": { "borderWidth": "1px"
    }

     

    object.borderColor


    "object": { "borderColor": "#d9d9d9"
    }

     


    object.borderRadius


    "object": { "borderWidth": "3px"
    }

    Shadows

    object.shadow.boxShadow


    "object": {
    "shadow": {
    "boxShadow": "0px 4px 10px 0px", "boxShadowColor": "#d9d9d9"

     }
    }

     

    object.shadow.boxShadowColor


    "object": {
    "shadow": {
    "boxShadow": "0px 4px 10px 0px", "boxShadowColor": "#d9d9d9"

     }
    }

     

    To give you more context: Document Object Model (DOM) selectors in custom CSS are not a supported pattern. While they can be helpful for customizing the look and feel of applications, the DOM is subject to change at any time. To provide your feedback, raise tickets on the Qlik Ideation portal when you need custom CSS customization. This helps prioritize supported customization options to add to the platform.

    Do not use top-level selectors such as qv-client or qv-card. These selectors are planned for removal in future versions. See CSS best practices for Sense themes for more information.

     

    What action do I need to take and when?

    Qlik Cloud will see the changes on or after June 1st, 2026, while Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows will be aligned in the November 2026 release.

    While we do not expect your themes to be affected, we recommend testing them at the earliest. See the How can I verify if my themes are affected? section.

    Update March 4th, 2026: added link to How to get Talend Management Console task schedules and pause and resume during a maintenance window using the API article
    Updated April 24th, 2026: added impact on APIs (all down) and additional clarification on why tasks must be stopped and the impact on remote engines
    Updated May 7th, 2026: added additional information on how to address Remote Engine impact
    Updated May 12th, 2026: the anticipated impact for the remaining maintenance window has increased from 30 minutes to 90 minutes

    Talend Cloud and Talend Management Console will undergo scheduled maintenance in MarchApril, and MayThis infrastructure modernization is a key step in unifying the Talend ecosystem with Qlik.

    The alignment paves the way for a more seamless experience across both platforms. Over the coming months, you will gain access to integrated features that bridge data integration and analytics, enabling unified governance and a streamlined management experience across your entire data lifecycle.

    The maintenance windows will occur per region, during off-peak hours, and are expected to have a maximum of 90 minutes of effective downtime. 

     

    What is the expected impact?

    A full outage of Talend Cloud and Talend Management Console for a duration of up to 90 minutes within a preplanned 4-hour window.

    The following applications will not be accessible: 

    • Talend Management Console (TMC)
    • Talend Data Stewardship (TDS)
    • Talend Data Preparation (TDP)
    • Talend Data Inventory (TDC)
    • Talend Pipeline Designer (TPD)
    • Talend API Designer and Tester
    • Talend Studio
    • Talend Cloud Engines

    All APIs for Talend Cloud will not be available during the outage. APIs impacted:

     

    In detail:

    • Cloud engines will not be available, and executions running on Cloud Engines will be terminated.
    • Talend Studio users may be disconnected from their session, and it will not be possible to open a new Talend Studio session except in local mode.
    • Executions that are already in progress during the outage will terminate correctly except on cloud engines, but all tasks or plans scheduled to start during those periods will be skipped.
    • Skipped executions will not be tagged as failed, since they were never started. For this reason, check the execution status of your tasks and plans to ensure that all important ones are not skipped, or start them manually if necessary. See What do I need to do to prepare? further down in this blog post.
    • Static IP addresses for Cloud Engines corresponding to Disaster Recovery regions will change during maintenance. See What follow-up actions are required? further down in this blog post.

     

    What do I need to do to prepare?

     

    What follow-up actions are required?

    • After the maintenance window, check and monitor the execution status of tasks and plans, as well as the status of your Remote Engines.
      In some instances, Remote Engines might require a restart if marked as unavailable in the Talend Management Console or if tasks cannot be executed as expected.

      If restarting the Remote Engine does not resolve the complication, follow the pairing instructions in Pairing Remote Engines using a dedicated web service to reset the key and re-pair the Remote Engine.

      If your Remote Engine Gen2 is unavailable or cannot execute tasks, then:

      1. Upgrade your Remote Engine Gen2 to the latest 2026-04 release: Updating the Remote Engine Gen2 when installed using the execution script)
      2. And re-establish the pairing: Re-establish the pairing of Remote Engine Gen2

    • If you use a predefined static IP on Cloud Engine, you will need to allow the new Disaster Recovery Region's IP addresses, which will have changed at this point. While this does not immediately affect production, it will impact any potential Disaster Recovery process.

      After the maintenance window, check your static IPs (Disaster Recovery) as documented in Using predefined static IP addresses for execution containers and update your firewalls accordingly.

      No change is required for the active region's IP addresses. They will be migrated and will work as of today, ensuring no production interruption.

     

    When will the maintenance take place?

    Each region will undergo maintenance for 4 hours during off-peak hours, with a maximum of 90 minutes of effective downtime.

    Important update on SAP Data Access Restrictions and your Qlik Integration

    Dear Qlik Customers, In April 2026, SAP published a series of updates that will restrict your ability to extract certain SAP data using Qlik products.

Show More

    Dear Qlik Customers,


    In April 2026, SAP published a series of updates that will restrict your ability to extract certain SAP data using Qlik products. We are writing to explain what is changing, what it means for your Qlik integration, what you can do next, and how Qlik is responding.

     

    SAP Announcement

    SAP has recently updated SAP Note 3255746 and its API Policy, which together prevent customers from using the ODP-RFC interface to perform bulk data extractions to non-SAP systems. Here is what you need to know.

     

    Impacted Qlik Products:

    The CDC connectivity via ODP will be at most risk by the implementation of the June 9th SAP security update, as it will be blocked. The main products affected are:

    • Qlik Talend Cloud SAP ODP Connector
    • Qlik Replicate SAP ODP Endpoint

     

    Other impacted products that also offer ODP functionality are:

    • Qlik Analytics (Qlik Sense / QlikView) SAP ODP Connector
    • Talend Studio Component tSAPODPInput

     

    The following Qlik Products do not use the ODP-RFC interface and therefore will not be impacted by the June SAP Security update:

    • Qlik Gold Client

     

    What's Changing and When:

    • June 9, 2026: SAP will release a security patch that will begin blocking “unrestricted” calls from non-SAP applications, including affected Qlik connectors, that rely on the ODP-RFC interface.
    • Temporary revert option: In SAP’s Operational Data Provisioning (ODP) Update Public FAQ, it is stated that “SAP provides a time-limited option to revert to unrestricted ODP-RFC calls. This flexibility will expire on December 2026.” This implies that SAP customers may be able to temporarily roll back this restriction, but only until December.

     

    Recommended Next Steps

    • Review the SAP Notes: Independently review SAP Note 3255746 (reclassification notice) and SAP Note 3439624 (self-assessment tool) via the SAP Support Portal at support.sap.com. Address your concerns and feedback through the appropriate SAP channels.
    • Contract Review: Review your customer agreement and the API Policy, updated in April, 2026, to evaluate SAP’s ability to make unilateral changes to your data access rights, and to require additional purchases and/or charge egress fees.
    • Audit your environment: SAP has released a self-assessment tool (SAP Note 3439624, available April 13, 2026) to help you identify all current ODP-RFC usage across your systems.
      • The Qlik SAP ODP Connector will show as “unpermitted”, which means it will be blocked by the SAP June Security patch
      • The Qlik SAP OData Connector will show as “permitted”, which implies it will continue to work with the SAP June Security
        patch
    • Evaluate Qlik’s Alternative SAP Connectors: Qlik supports several methods for SAP connectors, including OData and SAP Extractors. We continue to enhance our connectors and are looking to release a new SAP connector due later this year, which may prove a viable alternative.
    • Work with Qlik: Reach out to your Qlik representative before implementing the SAP June Security patch, so we can partner with you on alternate Qlik solutions and ways to address these SAP restrictions. Together, we can evaluate your specific environment, understand your connectivity needs, and align on the best path forward before the December 2026 deadline.

     

    Our Commitment

    You should be in control of your business-critical data, wherever it creates value. Without interoperable architectures, SAP customers like you face higher costs, performance issues, and less freedom to choose, including loss of flexibility in implementing AI.

    Qlik already supports alternatives to ODP and is actively developing additional migration paths and solutions to preserve your flexibility through this transition and beyond. We will continue to work on viable alternatives to our ODP endpoints and help you navigate this change on your terms, not SAP's. To learn more about how Qlik can support your specific environment, please reach out to your Qlik representative.

     

    Additional Resources

     

    This communication reflects Qlik's current interpretation of SAP's restrictions, which are outside our control and subject to change. Customers should consult SAP's official communications and seek independent guidance on operational and legal impact. Roadmap statements are forward-looking and not commitments; disruptions arising from SAP's decisions do not constitute a defect in Qlik's products or services.

    It was back in 2015 when I first published the original Qlik Sense Search Cheat Sheet. Since then, and thanks to lots of individual contributors here in the Community, the Search Cheat Sheet has suffered several transformations to make it more complete and truthful.

    @afurtado wrote me an email a few weeks ago because he was interested in getting the document localized for the Brazilian folks out there. In addition to thank him for his contribution and sending him the file I decided that it was about the time to get the Search Cheat Sheet an update. 

    Today I want to introduce a new version of the document. I added the compound search section to it (@jayanttibhe  thanks for the tip), and I redesigned and rationalized the position of each element for better comprehension.

    As an extra, I made the document multilanguage ready. So, if someone wants to translate the Cheat Sheet to other language (currently available in English, Spanish and Portuguese) please let me know in the comments section and I'll gladly tell you how to help us.

    Snowflake is rolling out stronger authentication requirements as part of their platform security initiative. Starting May 2026, new connections using only username and password will no longer be accepted, and all existing password-only connections will stop working between August and October 2026.

    For the full rollout schedule, see Snowflake's authentication enforcement timeline.

    If your Qlik Sense Cloud AnalyticsQlik Sense Enterprise on Windows, or QlikView environment connects to Snowflake, you will need to update those connections to use either key-pair authentication or OAuth before this change takes effect.

     

    Who does this apply to?

    This applies to any Qlik Cloud Analytics, Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows, and QlikView connection to Snowflake, where the authentication method is set to Username and Password only. Connections that already use key-pair authentication or OAuth do not need to change.

    To check your connections, review the Data connections and look for any Snowflake connections using username and password authentication.

     

    What are my migration options?

    There are two supported authentication methods you can migrate to. 

     

    Key-Pair Authentication

    Key-pair authentication uses an RSA private/public key pair assigned to the Snowflake user account. It is the most straightforward migration path and does not require an identity provider. This option is recommended for most customers.

    For setup steps, see Snowflake key-pair authentication documentation and the Qlik Snowflake connector guide.

     

    OAuth

    OAuth integrates with your existing identity provider (such as Okta or Azure AD) and is well-suited for organisations that want centralised access control and token-based authentication. It requires an OAuth security integration to be configured in Snowflake.

    See the Qlik Snowflake connector guide and Snowflake OAuth documentation.

    OAuth support for Snowflake was introduced to Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows with our May 2026 release.

    As a follow-up to my previous blog post titled Finance Report with Waterfall Chart, I wanted to share an awesome demo that showcases financial reporting visualizations including a profit & loss statement with a waterfall chart. Qlik's Dennis Jaskowiak and Ekaterina Kovalenko, and partner Dawid Marciniak from HighCoordination, created the Financial Analysis demo based off of Jedox data, incorporating many enhancements to the straight table and pivot table. In addition to the waterfall chart, they use inline SVG to create lollipop charts and bar charts in financial statements.

    Here is a look at some of the sheets:

    The Dashboard provides a high-level overview of profit and loss, cash flow and liquidity. On this sheet, view the use of inline SVG bar charts and lollipop charts.

    The P&L sheet provides a more detailed look at profit and loss.

    The Cost Center sheet uses the pivot table to show sales costs.

    This is just some of the sheets you will find in the Financial Analysis demo.  If you are looking for appealing ways to visual your financial data while keeping it concise and clean, download the Financial Analysis demo (QVF) here.

    Migrating a Talend Studio project to the cloud is no small undertaking, but we are here to help.

    Brought to you by Savraj RakkarBenoit Barranco, and Sébastien Leduc.

    The Qlik Talend Cloud Migration Toolkit (QTCMT) is a structured migration solution built for teams running Talend on-premises who are looking to move to Qlik Talend Cloud and upgrade their project code to Talend 8. Whether the destination is the cloud or an on-premises environment, the Qlik Talend Cloud Migration Toolkit provides a clear, automated path to get there.

    The Qlik Talend Cloud Migration Toolkit also extends beyond Talend Administration Center (TAC), offering an inventory view of Qlik Enterprise Manager (QEM) and Stitch environments so teams can see their full data integration footprint in one place.

     

    The Core Capabilities

    Talend Administration Center

    • Register a Talend Administration Center server and browse the complete asset inventory
    • Generate assessment reports to understand the migration scope before committing to any changes
    • Migrate administrative assets (users, groups, projects, authorizations) and runtime assets (tasks, triggers, plans), including artifact uploads to Nexus 3 or JFrog Artifactory, CVE report generation, and Talend 8 code upgrades
    • Automate on-premises upgrades to Talend 8 without a cloud migration
    • Run project quality checks to surface best-practice violations and a broad range of code issues, with exportable reports

     

    Qlik Enterprise Manager and Stitch

    • View Enterprise Manager and Stitch inventories directly within QTCMT to understand the broader environment before migrating a single asset

     

    Why use the Qlik Talend Cloud Migration Toolkit?

    • Automated, phased workflows reduce migration effort significantly, cutting weeks or months off a manual migration timeline in many cases
    • Full visibility into Talend Administration Center, Qlik Enterprise Manager, and Stitch environments is available before any assets are touched
    • Asset configurations, parameters, authorizations, and project code are preserved throughout the migration process
    • The phased approach allows assets to be migrated in stages, reducing risk to production environments and giving teams control over the pace
    • Teams not yet ready to migrate can still use Qlik Talend Cloud Migration Toolkit to assess their current environment and plan ahead using the assessment and project quality tools

     

    Why Move to Qlik Talend Cloud?

    Moving to Qlik Talend Cloud means less time managing servers, upgrades, and infrastructure, and more time focused on actual work. New features ship monthly, so the platform improves continuously without any effort from the team. Data stays current across connected systems in real time, and the platform scales as needs grow. Teams also benefit from unlimited users and execution engines, backed by a generous initial capacity band.

     

    Getting Started

    The best first step is installing the Qlik Talend Cloud Migration Toolkit through the Qlik Help Migration Center and connecting it to an existing Talend Administration Center, Qlik Enterprise Manager, or Stitch environment to get an immediate picture of what is there. Full installation steps are available in the Qlik Talend Cloud Migration Toolkit documentation.

    Qlik's O365 Add-in offering for report developers has expanded with two new add-ins to enable Word document and PowerPoint presentation analytic reports.

    Report developers can now:

    • Compose document or portrait style reports with data from a Qlik Sense app with an output format of .docx or .PDF (using the new Microsoft O365 Add-in for Word).
    • Create PowerPoint presentation analytic reports from a Qlik Sense app with an output of .pptx or .PDF (using the new Microsoft O365 Add-in for PowerPoint).

     

    How do I get started?

    Qlik add-ins for Microsoft Office are installed using a manifest file. If you are using an existing manifest, you will need to download and deploy an updated file to access the new add-ins. See the deployment guide Deploying and installing Qlik add-ins for Microsoft Office.

    The manifest covers all three productivity tool Add-ins. They cannot be deployed individually.

     

    Notes on the PowerPoint add-in use

    Qlik’s integration testing of Microsoft PowerPoint APIs shows that the O365 Add-in for PowerPoint can be unstable or slow at times. Our investigation with Microsoft reveals this to be a known challenge; some APIs on web vs desktop can result in different behaviors.

    If your report developers have difficulty with the online PowerPoint Add-in, contact Qlik Support to open a case with us.

    While we investigate the integration with Microsoft to determine if a solution is possible, consider developing your reports with the desktop version of PowerPoint. 

     

    For Qlik NPrinting Customers

    • Qlik NPrinting May 2026 Initial Release added support for exporting compatible Word and PowerPoint report templates in QDOCX and QPPTX formats for import into Qlik Cloud Reporting.

      Please note that only single-connection templates can be exported.

      See the Release Notes for details.

    • Please note that due to Microsoft API limitations, it is not possible to embed data into an Excel table within the PowerPoint template to then produce native PowerPoint visualizations in the report. Refer to the help documentation for any other Word and PowerPoint report authoring limitations. See Qlik Reporting Service specifications and limitations for details.

    Qlik Automate's ServiceNow connector is moving from username and password authentication to OAuth 2.0. This change aligns with security best practices and ServiceNow's own recommendations for third-party integrations, eliminating the need to store credentials in plain text and providing more granular, revocable access control.

     

    When will this change be made?

    The change will go into effect on the 23rd of June, 2026.

     

    What action do I need to take?

    Existing connections that use username and password authentication will need to be re-authenticated using OAuth 2.0. Complete the re-authentication steps as outlined in this blog post on the 23rd of June to prevent possible service interruptions. 

     

    How do I switch my ServiceNow connection to OAuth 2.0?

    ServiceNow provides guidance on each stage of the OAuth 2.0 setup. See the following for details:

     

    To migrate your Qlik Automate connector, first prepare ServiceNow by configuring OAuth 2.0, then re-authenticate Qlik Automate on the 23rd of June.

    Before you begin, make sure you have Admin access to your ServiceNow instance and Admin or Owner access to your Qlik Cloud tenant and the relevant Qlik Automate automation.

    1. Open the Application Manager in ServiceNow:
      The OAuth 2.0 plugin must be available in your ServiceNow instance.
      1. Log in to your ServiceNow instance.
      2. Click the All button in the top-left navigation bar and search for Application Manager.
      3. Select Application Manager from the results under Admin Center.
    2. In the Application Manager, use the Search your licensed applications and plugins field to search for OAuth. The ServiceNow products OAuth tile will appear in the results.
    3. Click the OAuth tile to expand it, then install the OAuth 2.0 plugin (Plugin ID: com.snc.platform.security.oauth). Wait for the installation to complete before proceeding.
    4. Navigate to Inbound Integrations:
      1. Click the All button again and search for Inbound Integrations.
      2. Select it from under System OAuth in the results.
    5. Create a new OAuth application endpoint:
      1. Click the New Integration button on the right.
      2. On the connection type screen, select OAuth – Authorization code grant.
      3. Configure the application by providing a Name, the Redirect URL, and the required scopes.
        When prompted for a Redirect URL, use the callback URL provided by Qlik Automate during the connection setup. This URL must exactly match what is registered in ServiceNow.
      4. Save the Client ID and Client Secret; they are required for the next step. 
      5. Click Save.
    6. Re-authenticate the connector in Qlik Automate
      This step can only be carried out after the change on the 23rd of June, 2026.
      1. In Qlik Automate, add a new ServiceNow connection.
      2. Enter your ServiceNow instance domain (format: https://[domain].service-now.com/).
      3. Provide the Client ID and Client Secret previously recorded.
      4. Follow the on-screen authentication flow to complete the OAuth authorisation.

     

    If you encounter issues during the migration, please contact Qlik Support or visit the Qlik Community for assistance. When raising a support case, include your ServiceNow instance domain and the error message you are seeing.

    A table recipe is an easy, no-code way to prepare a data set for an app, data flow, script or ML experiment. It is a great way for new users to prepare their data and get started building an app without having to write the script to transform the data. It can also be used by experienced users for quick data prep. Table recipe is available in Qlik Cloud Analytics from the Analytics activity center > Prepare data. You can also access it from the + Create menu option or + Create New button in the catalog. To begin using it, open table recipe, give it a name and select the space you would like to create it in. Once that is done, you will be prompted to select the data set. Note - the table recipe processes one data set at a time.

    select data.png

    Once a data file is selected, you can view the fields to confirm it is the correct data set and then you can load it into table recipe. Once it is loaded, you will see a pop up indicating the number of rows and columns in the dataset. Note that all the rows may not be loaded into the table recipe editor, but the recipe will be applied to the entire data set when it is run. Below is a look at the table recipe. On the left is the functions panel that includes several functions that can be used to prepare the data. Functions are grouped as general, columns, strings, dates, numbers and math. On the right is where the steps in our recipe will be added.

    editor.png

    Let’s begin with a simple step like deleting a column. I have a Fax column that I do not need so to delete the column; I can click on the column menu (three vertical dots) and select Delete column.

    fax.png

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    The step will appear on the right in the table recipe, and I can click Apply to remove the Fax column.

    delete.png

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Next, let’s split a column into two new columns. I have a Contact Name field with the contact’s full name. I would like to split the name into two fields – one for first name and one for last name. To do this, I will select the Split column function from the list of string functions on the left. Then I can update the details and apply the step. I will change the separator to a space since that is what separates the first and last name in the ContactName column.

    split.png

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Once I apply that step, I can see the two new fields it generated.

    new fields after split.png

    I will open the column menu and select Rename column to change the names of the new columns. Once I apply those steps, the columns and the recipe look like the image below. Keep in mind that the table recipe has steps that flow in a specific order. If those steps were to change, you may not get the expected results. For example, if I moved the rename column step above the split column step it would not work because the column I am renaming does not exist yet.

    renamed fields.png

    It is also easy to reorder the columns with the table recipe. The Reorder column function is found in the function group named Columns. Simply, select the column you would like to move and click on the Reorder column function. To move the Address column to the left of the City column, I will select the City column from the Anchor column drop down and then click Apply.

    reorder columns.pngreorder.png 

    We are also able to apply filters to the data if we want to focus on specific rows. In this example, Country has two different values for the United States – USA and US. I would like to change the US values to USA.

    filter.png

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    After applying the filter, I can see that I have 6 rows with US as the Country. I can use the string Search and replace function to replace US with USA.

    search and replace.png

    This step included my filter, so it only applied it to the rows I have filtered on.

    Let’s perform one more step that I use all the time when loading data. We will extract date parts from the OrderDate field. This will allow us to create other date fields such as month and year fields. If I select the OrderDate field and then select the date function Extract date parts, I am presented with all the possible date part fields I can add as a column to my data set. I simply can toggle on any new fields I would like to add.

    extract date parts.png

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Once this step is applied, I can see the 4 new date fields I added.

    new dates.png

    When all the steps have been added to the table recipe, the next steps are to set the target and run the recipe. Setting the target is nothing more than giving the target file a name and file type (qvd, parquet, txt or csv) and selecting the space to create it in.

    taregt set.png

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    What is nice about the table recipe is the steps are applied and stored in a new file, separate from the original data set, so you do not have to worry about incorrectly modifying the data set. Once the target is set, the Incomplete recipe message at the top of the page will change to Valid recipe and the Run recipe button will be enabled. Once the recipe is run, you can view your new data set and use it accordingly. The target data set will be stored in the desired space and can be accessed anytime via the catalog.

    Notice how all these steps we are creating are very easy and intuitive to build. You do not have to be an expert to perform these steps, and the editor is very user friendly and has a clean flow. What is also nice is that you can see that each step is working as expected when you apply it. Take this product tour to get a feel for the table recipe and then try it for yourself.

    Thanks,

    Edited May 4th, 2026: Added mitigation article, published on the 4th of May.

    Beginning on April 14, 2026, multiple QlikView customers experienced outages and intermittent disruptions within their QlikView environments. These incidents coincided with the deployment of Microsoft’s April 2026 security patches to Domain Controllers, which affected QlikView Server Service (QVS) communications over port 4747.

    The Microsoft patches introduced changes targeting Kerberos authentication and RC4 encryption. See Addendum for a list of patches. As a result, QlikView environments where RC4 remained enabled (such as at the domain account or Windows server level) became unstable or non-functional.

    The impact on QlikView may include, but is not limited to:

    • Failed QlikView Distribution Server distribution tasks with an error code indicating an Authentication Failure.
    • "No Server" message on the QlikView AccessPoint with an error message in the Web server log indicating that the Web server cannot connect to the QlikView Server.
    • Failed Qlik NPrinting distributions to QlikView using a QVP Connection.
    • Problems accessing the QlikView Server settings from the QlikView Management Console, or failures for the QlikView Server to come online after a restart.

     

    What can be done to mitigate this issue?

    We've published an article to help address the issue. See QlikView server communication interruptions following Microsoft Windows RC4 cipher suite deprecation.

    Information in the article is based on Microsoft's remediation steps and has been adjusted and expanded to include QlikView-specific instructions. For the original, see Detect and remediate RC4 usage in Kerberos | learn.microfot.com

     

    What action is Qlik taking?

    RC4 support was deprecated starting with the May 2024 release of QlikView. The root cause in these cases stems from legacy configurations where RC4 remained enabled in the environment, rather than a defect in QlikView itself. No code changes are planned at this time, though improvements to diagnostic logging are under consideration.
