This video demonstrates how to create a new O-auth data source connection so that you are redirected to the login page of the system you’re connecting to.

Sometimes while trying to add a new connection that uses OAuth authentication flow(for eg: Quickbooks connector) within an automation having multiple connections, it gets automatically connected to the previously linked user instead of redirecting it to the login page of the system.

A possible solution for this would be to log out from one account before logging into the other account if we want to add multiple connections of the same system. Please refer below video which shows up how to manually logout from a quickbooks account and then retry adding up a new connection for quickbooks within an automation.

Transcript

This video demonstrates how to create a new O-auth data source connection so that you are redirected to the login page of the system you’re connecting to.
Let’s try connecting a new data source for quick books.
Assume we have multiple data sources already connected
If we click on add Link Connection,
it will automatically get connected to a previously signed in QuickBooks account
instead of redirecting to the login page of QuickBooks
In order to connect multiple data sources of QuickBooks using different accounts
First, Manually log out from QuickBooks
Retry adding up a new connection for QuickBooks by clicking on
add another QuickBooks connection
This will redirect to the login page of quick books
Where you can sign in with a different account
And now the new connection is made
I hope this helped.

Getting started with the Qlik Sense Cloud Hub  

Video Transcript:

Hi and welcome to Qlik Fix!
This video will go over how to get started with the Qlik Sense Cloud Hub and how to interact with an app when consuming data.
Because data-driven decision-making is forefront in your role, having readily accessible analytics is important.
Collaborating and interacting with the data in a controlled environment empowers you and other stakeholders to discover insights and turn those insights into action.
Here you see the Cloud hub home screen. To access all your available content, click on Catalog.
By default, all the content you have access to is listed.
You can pick from spaces you have access to. Spaces group specific content that is accessible by your user account.
You are able to see your personal and shared spaces, and if using Qlik Sense Enterprise SaaS, Managed spaces are also listed.
We'll select an example shared space.
Depending on your permissions, you are be able to view and manage the space notifications, members, data sources, and edit the space itself.
Each space will list its available app, charts, data, notes, and links.
In this video we will also focus on interacting with apps, so we select Apps to filter on that Type of content.
You have the ability to also filter by owner, then under All filters, filter by creator, and tags.
You can then list by Last modified, last created, and alphabetical.
Your layout can also be customized to a list view or Tiled view.
The example app used here, named Beginner's tutorial, can be downloaded from a tutorial page under the Qlik Help site.
The link to the specific page can be found in the article where this video is embedded to.
Once you have opened an app, you will see a list of available sheets.
Under public sheets, all the published sheets available to you are listed.
Depending on your permission level, my sheets is also displayed from where you can create your own sheets and visualizations.
Also depending on your permissions, public sheets can be copied or duplicated with right-click, allowing you to create your own version of a predefined sheet.
We will not be covering how to create or edit sheets and visualizations in this tutorial.
You can access any of the active public sheets. We'll open the sheet called Dashboard.
With the sheet open, click Sheets in the top right corner, then select a sheet, or use the navigational arrows to move forward and back in the list of sheets.
You can go back to the App's overview from the top-left menu, or go back to the Hub by clicking on the Qlik logo in order to access other apps and contents.
Back at the app's sheet visualization, lets move on to how we interact with an app and isolate different subsets of data.
We can do so by clicking directly on a visual element within a visualization.
In our example we isolate 2014 sales year by clicking on that value in the Year filter pane. Then confirm your selection.
All other visualizations within the sheet will adjust to reflect your selection.
When making additional selections, values in white indicate associated data based on current selections, while values in gray indicate that no data is associated to that value based on the current selections made.
In this example we see that there is no data for Q3 or Q4 for the year 2014.
You can also search inside the filter pane to make locating the desired value easier.
With the selection made, click the green check mark to confirm your selection or the red X to cancel your selection.
You can interact with other objects such as charts or tables by clicking directly on the individual sections of the chart.
Here we select to show Sales in the USA region only by selecting the area represented by that selection in the pie chart.
Selection can be removed from the selection toolbar.
Another way to make selections is to use the lasso icon which appears when a sheet object is clicked on.
Select the lasso feature button, then draw around or over the desired selection. Then confirm the selection.
With selections made, the selections toolbar provides a convenient set of tools to step back through the recent selections or step forward to reapply those same selections.
You also have the ability to either edit a selection, cancel it, or clear all selections.
Another way to select and explore data is to use the smart search feature.
From the selections bar, click the magnifying glass which will open the smart search tool.
You may enter multiple search terms into the smart search field.
Unlike when searching within a table or filter pane, the smart search tool searches across multiple fields from the underlying data model.
Each term will be color-coded differently to help identify individual results.
Clicking on one of the results or hit return to selects a result.
Notice the selections made by the search result.
You are then able to easily access your search history the next time you select to use the smart search tool.
And this concludes the basics of navigating the Qlik Sense Hub and interacting with an App in order to review data.

How to enable Qlik Sense QIX performance logging and use the Telemetry Dashboard 

Video Transcript:

Hi and welcome to Qlik Fix!
This video demonstrates how to enable QIX Performance logging in Qlik Sense to capture granular usage metrics from the Qlik in-memory engine.
First, Open the Qlik Management Console and navigate to the Engine menu.
Edit the engine on which you want to enable the QIX Performance Logs
Go to Logging and select the desired logging level next to QIX Performance
In this demo we will use the Info log level but note that this level of logging should only be used during troubleshooting as it can produce very large log files.
During normal production operation it is recommended to use the Error or Warning log level settings.
Now navigate to the following location and open the Settings.ini file as an Administrator.
Add the following parameters and value which are listed in the knowledge base article this video is embedded to, and save the file.
Note that these values can be modified to fit the need of the environment if needed. See the mentioned article for parameter definition.
Next, restart the Qlik Sense Engine service to apply the change.
You can now open an application via Qlik Sense Hub in order to generate logs, and navigate to the following location to verify that the QIX Performance logs is enabled.
The QIX Performance log file contain engine operations with performance related content.
This content can be visualized with the Telemetry Dashboard or a custom Qlik Sense application.
For information on using the Telemetry Dashboard to visualize data obtained with the QIX Performance logs, see the article in which this video is embedded in Qlik Community.

Multi-Cloud deployment logs and how to change logging level 

Video Transcript:

 Hi and welcome to Qlik Fix!
This video covers what log files can be used for troubleshooting Qlik Sense Multi-Cloud deployment issues, as well as increasing the log level if needed.
When troubleshooting issues with the Multi-Cloud (a.k.a Hybrid) deployment setup, the logs generated by the Hybrid Deployment and Setup Console services can be investigated.
Here as an example where we see an error when configuring a multi-cloud deployment that uses Okta as the Identity provider.
The Deployment and Setup Console logs are stored in these locations.
Looking at the Hybrid Setup Console and Deployment Service logs gives us additional troubleshooting information.
With the Multi-cloud Deployment successfully set up, if having issues with Application Distribution to the Cloud, the App Distribution Service trace logs can be reviewed for details.
It is found in this location.
If needed, the logging level of the Hybrid Deployment and App Distribution Services can be increased when troubleshooting.
To do so, the appsettings.json files for each service needs to edited as shown here to increase logging from the default Information to Debug level.
Once the file is saved with the new setting, the Qlik Sense Dispatcher service needs to be restarted.

This video will cover how to enable and test JSON Web Token (JWT) authentication on Qlik Sense.

Here is a link to more information in the Support Knowledge Base:

Qlik Sense: How to set up JWT authentication 

Video Transcript:

Hi and welcome to Qlik Fix!
This video will cover how to enable and test JSON Web Token (JWT) authentication on Qlik Sense.
The first step is to create a new Virtual Proxy which serves as the authentication component in Qlik Sense.
The Virtual Proxy needs a unique Name, Prefix, Session cookie header name, an Engine server to use, and to be linked to one of the available Proxy servers.
Under Authentication, pick JWT - commonly read as Jot - for Authentication method.
For the JWT Certificate we will use the Qlik Sense self-signed server certificate in PEM format. It can be found under this location.
Keep in mind that any certificate for which the Private Key is used to generate the JSON Web Token (JWT), can be used here.
The server certificate private key is also found here and will be used to generate the token.
Next, open the PEM formatted server certificate with a text editor and paste the content in the Virtual Proxy configuration.
We also need to configure JWT attribute for user ID and for user directory which will need to match the ones we configure when generating the token.
Save the settings and now for generating the token we can leverage the commonly used site jwt.io, as an example.
We will select the algorithm RS256, then add the userID and userDirectory attributes previously configured in the Virtual Proxy.
Make sure to set the values for these attributes to an intended licensed user that will be authorized access, then open the PEM formatted private key file and copy the content to the appropriate field on the website.
Notice how the JWT is generated when the Private Key in PEM format is added.
To validate the signature, we can add the PEM formatted server certificate in the appropriate field.
This confirms that the server cert configured in the Virtual Proxy should be able to validate the JWT signature as long as it is not an encrypted token and the algorithm used is either RS256, RS384, or RS512.
Now for testing we need to use the token when accessing the Hub or QMC.
In this example we will use Fiddler Classic version as it is a widely used tool.
It will allow us to inject the needed Security header and then inspect the request Headers.
First, ensure HTTPS decryption is enabled.
Then configure the Authorization header under the Filters tab as seen here. The JWT token is pasted after the word Bearer as shown here.
Start the Capture, and now when accessing the QMC or Hub using the configured Vitual Proxy prefix in the URL, the licensed user referenced in the token should be allowed access.
We can see in the Inspection tab where the header was injected and sent to the Qlik Sense server with the token.
Under the Auth tab the JWT as content of the Authorization Header should be displayed.
The same can be performed with the Fiddler Everywhere version after enabling HTTPS traffic decryption and adding the authorization header in a similar fashion.
Another and perhaps simpler alternative for testing is to use a Google Chrome extension such as Modheader which also injects the authorization header.

How to backup or restore the PostgreSQL database in Qlik Sense

Attached is a downloadable .mp4 video file for those who cannot view YouTube videos.

#QlikSupport

Video Transcript:

Hi and welcome to Qlik Fix.

This video will demonstrate how to restore the Qlik Sense Repository database or QRS from a backup.

First, verify that only the Qlik Sense Repository database service is running on the machine.

The existing database will need to be removed prior to restoring the QRS backup.

This can be done using PG Admin – a standard database utility.

Open up PG Admin

Create a connection to the server machine hosting the Qlik Sense Repository database.

Port 4432

Postgres user and password.

Here you can see all of the tables where Qlik Sense stores data in the current database that will be dropped.

In PG Admin you could do this with the Delete/Drop option.

I’ll be using these commands copied from the Qlik help site.

Open a command prompt with Administrator privileges from the PostgreSQL 9.6 bin folder.

Copy and paste in the command

Connecting locally,

On port 4432

With the postgres user defined while installing

And dropping the current QSR database.

No other tasks should be running in parallel, so I’ll disconnect PG Admin.

Enter the password

And back to PG Admin to verify that the database has been removed.

You can see that QSR is gone.

Now, copy the Create DataBase command from the Documentation.

The Template0 will create a basic schema, but there will be no tables.

Copy

Paste and run the command

Done.

Back to PG Admin to illustrate.

The QSR has been created with a public schema, but with no tables.

Now we’re finally to the step of restoring from the backup.

This could be done in PG Admin via the Restore command,

Point to the backup tarball, hit restore,

But again, this is a demo of the manual method.

Copy the restore command.

You can see a variable here to the path to the backup file

Copy everything up to that point

Navigate to the QSR backup on an accessible shared drive folder.

Copy the backup locally.

This folder has been created on the local C drive called QSRBackup

An easy way to get the file path is to press Shift and right click,

then select “Copy as path”

Paste it at the end of the command

I recommend adding a “-V” to the command line so that you can actually see some more verbosity to what is happening.

Again, close any tasks or open connections to the database.

Enter the password

And there it goes.

To verify that the data is actually there,

Back to PG Admin one more time.

In the QSR database under tables, now there is all the content.

The QSR has been fully restored.

I hope this helped.

This video will demonstrate how to synchronize users from multiple domains that are members of an Active Directory Universal group with Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows.

Here is a link to more information in the Support Knowledge Base:

Qlik Fix: Sync Active Directory users from multiple domains with Advanced LDAP - Qlik Sense Entreprise on Windows 

Video Transcript:

Hi and Welcome to Qlik Fix!
This video will demonstrate how to synchronize users from multiple domains that are members of an Active Directory Universal group.
Since the September 2020 release of Qlik Sense, it is now possible to sync users belonging to multiple domains with a single User Directory Connector, which simplifies administration.
Let’s start by opening “Active Directory Domains and Trust” and check our current setup.
Here we have the root forest domain called “domain.local” and a trusted domain2.local domain. Each domain has its own set of users that need to be synchronized with Qlik Sense.
An important requirement for Qlik Sense to work with multiple domains is the full bidirectional trust enabled between the domains.
Here we create an Active Directory Universal Security Group called “Qlik_Sense_Users”, and add users from both domain.local and domain2.local.
Next on this newly installed Qlik Sense server without any synchronized users or a Directory Connector, we’ll create a new Advanced LDAP connector.
In this example we’ll name it “Domain” to match the domain name where our group was created.
Uncheck the box “Sync user data for existing users” so that we can import new users into Qlik Sense.
Then, for Host set it to the domain that hosts the Global Catalog server containing the AD group. We will use the default Global Catalog LDAP port 3268. <annotation> Note port for LDAPS is 3269. If you point to the default LDAP port 389, the sync will only be able to import users belonging to domain.local.
Make sure to setup with a Windows account that has proper permission to access directory information in Activity Directory.
The base DN here is important, and should include both domains. Otherwise, only users under the DN specified will be retrieved. In this example we set it to “dc=local” which both domains are found under. <Annotation> e.g: setting to “dc=domain2,dc=local” would retrieve users from domain2 only.
We’ll pick the default Page size of 2000 results per synch request.
Then set an LDAP filter to load users from the specific Active Directory group we created earlier. For more information on setting LDAP filters take a look at this knowledge base article in Qlik Community.
As our final step, change in the Directory entry attribute for “User identifier” from the general LDAP standard “inetOrgPerson” to Active Directory standard “person”, as the identifier for users.
Apply the settings and start the Sync task.
We see that the new users are imported from both example domains.

How to switch QlikView to the modern Qlik User licensing 

Video Transcript:

Hi and Welcome to Qlik Fix
This video will demonstrate how to switch from Client Access Licenses (CALs) to the new Professional and Analyzer Access licensing

When applying a Signed License Key to QlikView, the licensing model is converted to Professional and Analyzer access. In this example we see the displayed allocations of User CALS, and Document CALs under the User Document's settings.
The signed license key is applied by pasting it under System Licenses configuration in the "Signed Key" field. Then click on the Apply License button. Please note that once a Signed license key is applied the current QlikView Deployment cannot be reverted to the legacy Client Access License model.
Click OK to restart the QlikView Server service.
When the existing QlikView deployment already has legacy CAL assignemnts, after applying the new Signed Key the license allocations need to be manually re-configured according to the Analytics Modernization Program licensing conversion ratio that was opted for.
The primary conversion being the following:
Under the License Definition we can see the allotments provided by this License key.
When a new signed license key is applied the file AllocatedCALinfo.txt is automatically generated under the location seen here. It contains a semicolon-separated list of users that had Named User CAL and Document CAL assigments before switching to the Professional and Analyzer access licensing model.
Copy the list of "Named Cals", and paste it under the "Manual Input of Users Names" field when performing the Professional Access assignement. Click OK, then click Apply.
Next copy the list of "Named Document Cals", and paste it under the "Manual Input of User Names" when performing the Analyzer Access assignment. Click OK, then click Apply.
Now you can review your assignments under the General tab.

How to use Qlik-CLI to Migrate Apps to Qlik Sense SaaS 

Video Transcript:

Hi and welcome to Qlik Fix!
This video will demonstrate how to use Qlik-CLI for SaaS to migrate Apps from your on-premises Qlik Sense environment to your Qlik Sense SaaS edition.
Qlik-CLI makes it possible for scripting and automating App migration.
The tool may be installed and connected to you Qlik Sense SaaS tenant following the steps mentioned in this Community knowledge base article. (https://community.qlik.com/t5/Knowledge-Base/How-to-install-and-start-using-Qlik-CLI-for-SaaS-editions-of/ta-p/1796143)
Qlik-CLI can also be used to connecting to Qlik Sense on Windows via the QRS API.
As with SaaS Editions of Qlik Sense, the connection to Qlik Sense on Windows also requires a API Key for authentication. (qlik context get andresostizzo.us.qlikcloud.com)
The API key is essentially a JSON Web Token, or JWT, usually pronounced as jot.
So the first step is to have a new Virtual Proxy configured to accept JWT Authentication.
This will allow for qlik-cli to establish a trusted connection with the Qlik Sense server.
For detailed steps with enabling and testing JWT Authentication, take a look at this knowledge base article in community on how to set it up.
(https://community.qlik.com/t5/Knowledge-Base/Qlik-Sense-How-to-set-up-JWT-authentication/ta-p/1716226)
In this video's example however, we use the openssl commands found in this qlik.dev page to create a certificate and private key that are used for signing the JWT. (https://qlik.dev/tutorials/using-qlik-sense-on-windows-repository-api-qrs-with-qlik-cli#create-a-public--private-key-pair-for-signing-jwts)
Then, we create the JWT with the code sample found in this section, using Node. (https://qlik.dev/tutorials/using-qlik-sense-on-windows-repository-api-qrs-with-qlik-cli/#tokenjs-code-sample)
NodeJS can be downloaded from the Nodejs.org website. (https://nodejs.org/en/download/)
After installing it, the jsonwebtoken module needs to be installed with the following node package management (NPM) command. (npm install jsonwebtoken)
Now we can edit the provided Token.js javascript code for creating the token.
Note that the userid and userdirectory attributes names as well as the value specified for the audience (aud) attribute are all case sensitive, and need to match what is configured in the Virtual Proxy.
Also make sure to indicate an existing licensed user for the userid and userdirectory.
For jwtEncryptionKey, fill in the location for the private key file generated previously with openssl.
Now we can run this code with the following node command. (node token.js)
The token should be created and displayed.
Next, we need to create the context for the connection with the Qlik Sense server.
Run the following command with values for the context name, URL for the Virtual Proxy, server type as Windows, and the api-key which is the new JWT created. (qlik context create QSEoW --server https://192.168.254.243/jwt --server-type windows --api-key)
Note that if an IP or alias is used in the URL, it needs to be added to the Virtual Proxy's list of allowed hosts.
Now we switch to the newly created context with the context use command, and we are ready to run qlik qrs commands.
For example, the following command will retrieve a list of Apps and their IDs in JSON format. (qlik qrs app ls --insecure | jq -r '.[] | {"name":.name,"id":.id}')
Notice that the --insecure flag allows for the command to be run from outside the Qlik Sense server itself.
Also note that we are piping the output to a JSON processing tool called JQ.
JQ can be downloaded from the following web page. (https://stedolan.github.io/jq/)
Another example would be the need to retrieve App IDs for a specific Stream.
Adding the stream name object in the JQ command, and then piping it to the select-string command can help listing the App names and ids that were published to the specified stream.
(qlik qrs app ls --insecure | jq -r '.[] | {"name":.name,"id":.id,"stream":.stream.name}' | select-string "Monitoring apps" -context 2,0)
Next we can export one of these apps. Let's first set the variables for the App ID, the exported filepath, and new filename.
Now we can use these variables in the following command for exporting the App.
Note that the --skipdata flag exports the App without data.
This is beneficial with larger Apps since there is an upload size limit of 1GB when importing Apps to Qlik Sense SaaS editions.
More information on app sizing is available in the following article. (https://community.qlik.com/t5/Knowledge-Base/Qlik-Sense-Business-and-Enterprise-SaaS-App-Size-Storage-Size/ta-p/1710690)
We will also add the flag -v to enable verbose mode and display more result information.
We can see that a 200 OK is returned, and that the app is successfully exported.
The next step is to import the App into the Qlik Sense SaaS instance.
First we need to switch to the context used for your Qlik Sense SaaS tenant.
Review the values stored in our variables.
Then use the following command to import the App, and store its ID to the "SaaSApiID" powershell variable.
The App should now show in Cloud Hub under Explore.
Keep in mind that exported apps do not contain original private sheets and have the public sheets and stories set as private as seen here.
You may publish the sheets manually via Cloud Hub, or use qlik-cli as in the following example.
First review the imported App ID variable created previously.
With the following command obtain a list of sheets in the app.
Then, set all of them to public.
We can see the result in cloud hub and then notice the App is still found under the user's personal space.
The app may be assigned to a specific space, and many other tasks are available as well via Qlik-CLI.
Examples for Space assignment and owner changes can be found in the qlik.dev page shown here. (https://qlik.dev/tutorials/migrate-apps-from-qlik-sense-on-windows-to-qlik-sense-saas#place-the-app-in-a-shared-space)

How to install and start using Qlik-CLI for SaaS editions of Qlik Sense 

Video Transcript:

Hi and welcome to Qlik Fix!
This video will demonstrate how to install and configure Qlik-CLI for SaaS editions of Qlik Sense.
Qlik-CLI gives you access to Qlik Sense public APIs via CLI, which is useful when writing automation scripts and performing repetitive tasks.
It can be downloaded directly from github and is available for Mac, Linux, or Windows.
When downloading for Windows, copy the executable to a local directory, and it just needs to be added to the Path System variable as shown here.
Now we can re-open PowerShell, and it is ready for further configuration. You can use the following command to confirm its location path.
Another option for installing Qlik-CLI on Windows is to use Chocolatey, which is a package management tool that allows for installing and upgrading qlik-cli via command line.
Chocolatey can be installed by following the PowerShell steps under its installation web page.
Keep in mind that if you use NodeJS, it is possible that it has already been installed as it can be included as a needed tool in the nodejs.
To install qlik-cli using Chocolatey, run this command that points to the NuGet web source location shown. Remember to specify the latest package version in the command.
Here we see the command succeeds, but if there are any issues finding package in the specified source, it can be downloaded directly from NuGet.org under this location.
Then add the local file location as source in the install command as shown here.
After the installation, it is useful to enable the Completion feature.
This allows for the user to use the TAB key and have commands, flags, and resources suggested or auto-completed.
To enable this in Powershell, first create a profile if no profile exists yet.
The following command can be run in order to check for an existing profile and to create a blank one if no profile exists.
Then open the profile file with this command using notepad, and add the following to the profile file, and restart PowerShell.
Note that this will enable completion only to Windows PowerShell via the current logged on user profile.
Also, if completion is needed with PowerShell ISE, perform the same steps using PowerShell ISE which creates a separate profile.
For enabling completion in Bash or zsh, follow the instructions under the qlik-cli Installation page.
Now we can create the qlik-cli context for the connection with the Qlik Sense tenant typing the command "qlik context init"
Here we type Qlik Sense tenant URL, and now we need to obtain an API Key in order to create the API connection trust.
The key is created via Cloud Hub so we have logged on with the user account that will be used to authenticate the API connection.
If the API Key section is not seen under Settings and Management, under the tenant's Management Console and under Settings, make sure that "Enable API keys" is set.
Also, the user creating the API Key must be given the Developer Role permissions, and must have a Professional License assigned
Next, go back to Cloud Hub, and under Settings and Management create a new API Key for authenticating the qlik-cli API connections.
This API Key is essentially a JWT token and its header and payload metadata can be visualized in jwt.io
Notice here the sub attribute indicates the user ID in SaaS used for the authentication.
Now, we can paste the key back in the PowerShell to create the new context for the connection to the SaaS tenant.
We can check on which contexts are available and the one being used with the "qlik context ls" command.
If needed, the context can be changed with the "context use" command.
Now we can test the connection with any API call, such as with the following command to list existing App names. (qlik item ls --resourceType app | select-string 'name":')
Then search for an App's and meta data information by App name with the following command. (qlik item ls --resourceType app --name "app name")
For more information on a particular command, use --help after each command parameter.
For example, when selecting parameters using completion, then typing --help will list the available commands and flags for the current command context.
Here's another example.

How To Check For Missing Database Listeners in Qlik Sense on Windows 

Video Transcript:

Hi and welcome to Qlik Fix!
Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows relies on database listeners to notify nodes when changes have occurred.
It is possible for these connections to be silently closed in the environment, so this video will show how we can identify if a listener has been closed.
First, we want to make sure that all nodes are showing as “Online” in the QMC. Otherwise this will affect the result of the query we will run later in the video.
In this environment, there are currently four nodes including the central, and they all show as “Online” with all services running properly.
Now to run the query, we open PGadmin and connect to the QSR database.
Right-click on it and select the “Query Tool”
Next copy the SQL query from the Qlik Community knowledge base article on “How To Check For Missing Database Listeners...”, and paste it in PGAdmin's query editor.
After running the query the output will show the list of node IPs with an associated listener.
It will also show how many nodes you have in total and how many listeners are opened.
Normally there should be one listeners per node. However in this case, we can see that there are only three listeners for a total of four nodes.
This means one database listener is missing.
A quick fix is to restart the Qlik Sense Repository Service on the affected rim node.
However, for a more permanent fix, open the QlikSenseUtil.exe program under this location (C:\Program Files\Qlik\Sense\Repository\Util\QlikSenseUtil)
Then select “Connection String Editor” and then the Read button.
Next, add the parameter Keep Alive=30 at the end of these two connection string.
This will ensure that these database connections remain open by sending periodic keep alive packets.
Now we can restart the Qlik Sense Repository Service for the change to take effect.
Remember to repeat these steps on all remaining rim nodes.

This video demonstrates how to use LDAP filters and common examples when setting up Qlik Sense User Directory Connector (UDC).

Here is a link to more information in the Support Knowledge Base:

Qlik Sense: Configuring and testing LDAP filters for User Directory Connector 

Video Transcript:

Hi and welcome to Qlik Fix!
This video demonstrates how to use LDAP filters and common examples when setting up Qlik Sense User Directory Connector (UDC).
Qlik Sense uses the UDC to synchronize and retrieve new user entries from the supported User Directory service or database of choice.
When creating a UDC, the default behavior is to only synchronize data for existing users.
Users are added to the Qlik Sense database dynamically as they use their credentials or are authenticated via SSO when accessing the Hub or QMC.
It is possible however to disable the setting "Sync user data for existing users", which will result in all available users being retrieved and added to the Qlik Sense database.
In this scenario, when connecting to a Directory Service, it is recommended that an LDAP filter is put in place in order to help retrieving only the relevant users.
The RFC for "String Representation of LDAP Search filters" can be reviewed under the this location. (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2254)
Search string syntax information and examples can be found in TechNet on the article "LDAP Syntax Filters" shown here. (https://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/5392.active-directory-ldap-syntax-filters.aspx)
As an example, we will use the following string to retrieve all users under the Active Directory Security Group "Qlik Sense Users".
This string searches for members of the specific group which has the DistinguishedName value as stated here.
This value can be found by enabling Advanced Features in the Active Directory Users and Computers console.
Then under the Group's properties, under Attribute Editor, find the distinguishedName value.
After synchronizing the UDC we can see the remaining users are imported.
Another common filter for retrieving all users within all nested groups is shown here.
This string contains a matching rule defined by LDAP that acts as an extended match operator, which allows for recursive searches.
See more information under the following Microsoft documentation website. (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/adsi/search-filter-syntax)
In this example we see that Group0 is a member of "Qlik Sense Users" group, and the members of Group0 were now imported due to the recursive search.
Keep in mind that the LDAP filter string can be tested directly using the AD Users and Computers console.
To do so right-click the domain name, then select Find. Specify this as a Custom Search, and select the Advanced tab.
Here the search strings can be tested before applying them to the Qlik Sense UDC.

This video will show an example of how Analytic Connections can be used to enable external calculation engines that act as Server Side Extensions (SSE). In this example Qlik Sense connects to an R server for extending expression capabilities in Qlik Sense Apps while offloading the calculations to the R server engine.

Here is a link to more information in the Support Knowledge Base:

R Integration with Qlik Sense 

Video Transcript:

Hi and Welcome to Qlik Fix!
This video will show an example of how Analytic Connections can be used to enable external calculation engines that act as Server Side Extensions (SSE).
In this example Qlik Sense connects to an R server for extending expression capabilities in Qlik Sense Apps while offloading the calculations to the R server engine.
Analytics Connection use gRPC protocol to communicate with the Server-Side Extension.
gRPC does not support R-Script language, so we need to use the open-source Qlik Sense R-Plugin as a connector to the R-Server.
The plugin can be downloaded in this location. Make sure to review the contents of the readme file including the License information.
Qlik Support does not support this R plugin software directly, which is provided as-is. Inquiries should be submitted via Github under this location. (https://github.com/qlik-oss/sse-r-plugin/issues)
In this example we will download, build, and run the plugin on the R server.
First, download and unzip the contents where the plugin will live moving forward. Then, we need to be built it using Microsoft Visual Studios.
A pre-requisite for the R-Plugin is Visual Studios 2015 or later.
Open the solution file ServerSideExtension.sln and run the build twice.
This should create the plugin executable under this location. (sse-r-plugin-master\csharp\SSEtoRserve\bin\Debug)
Next, since the plugin default setting is to accept only local requests via the loopback interface, we will configure it to listen for connection requests on all network interfaces of the R server.
Open the config file shown here, and under grpcHost, set the value to 0.0.0.0.
Also note that in this scenario the default setting of the rserveHost value as the loopback IP, will work since the plugin is being installed on the R server.
The R-Plugin connection to R is made to a service called RServe, which may not have been installed yet.
RServe can be installed via the R Console in either RGui or RStudio with the following commands:
To install the RServe package, will need to pick a mirror. Then invokes the needed library, and then starts the RServe server.
Note that additional dependent libraries may need to be installed depending on the desired functionality. See information on this under the GetStarted.md file in GitHub.
Next we can run the R-plugin executable SSEtoRserve.exe which will start listening on port 50051 by default.
Now we can finally configure the Analytic connection via QMC.
The name for the connection is actually used within the Qlik Sense app when invoking the server side extension.
We will name it R as it is referenced this way in example Qlik Sense Apps available.
The Host field should be set to the hostname of the server running the R-Plugin.
Keep in mind that even if the Plugin is installed on the Qlik Sense Central node, if there are other Rim nodes in the environment with the Engine service enabled, the hostname should be set to the actual server name, not as localhost.
Next, set the default tcp port for the plugin, and click Apply.
The R-plugin includes sample Qlik Sense apps which can be imported.
With this particular sample app we can look at basic load script statements and expression that do not require any additional libraries packages.
Note in the Load Script editor how the Extension clause needs to precede the name given to the plugin in the configured Analytic Connection, which in this case is named "R".
See more information on Load script syntax on Qlik's help site under the following location. (https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense/November2020/Subsystems/Hub/Content/Sense_Hub/Scripting/ScriptRegularStatements/Load.htm)
In App objects, the expression syntax is similar, and starts with the plugin name configured in the Analytic connection, followed by available functions retrieved from the plugin.
When using the default functions included with the R plugin, an R-script string needs to be included as a parameter, along with references to the data to be submitted with the request.
In this example, we use the R-Scrip function paste() to concatenate the first and second words submitted as data.
In this other KPI object, we use a defined function to only submit the data and obtained the result.
Defined functions can be added on the fly to the Function Definitions JSON file shown here.
In order to enable this functionality, add the json file path string as the value for the parameter shown here in the plugin configuration file mentioned earlier in the video.
The server side extension plugin activity can be observed when running the process interactively.
The activity also gets registered in the Log files under this location.
Reviewing this sample app we can see more examples of other custom expressions that use the server-side-extension and have the calculation offloaded to the R server.
