Should I install qlik sense desktop on a qlik sense server?

HI there,

i have a question regarding Qlik Sense. Should I install qlik sense desktop on a qlik sense server?

When i have installed qlik sense server, i found that there's a sense hub, is it meaning that i can create, drag and drop objects, and edit script in this sense hub? or i have to install a qlik sense desktop , to perform all these tasks?

Rgds,

Jim

No, you can not install QS Desktop in server/ But you can simply copy folder C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Programs\Qlik\Sense\ form your PC to the server and run QlikSense.exe

ok bro, thanks! useful info

Not applicable

Just wondering about moving the desktop files to the server.  Will I have to reconnect the data sources in the load script on the server (cut and paste except for local files)? The reason I am asking is I thought Desktop only generated qvf files without data but on server you can create both qvf and qvd on the server.

Just playing with the tech preview and I haven't got to connecting data sources yet (and time is ticking)...  had to build a virtual SQL server for a source. The QS server server management seems a little bizarre/difficult but I'm figuring it out.

Thanks in advance,
