QB-20326 Use connection name for "Select data from source" in Data Manager For "Select data from source" we need to look up by connection name to be more consistent with Data Load Editor.

QB-9583

"Skip to content" link available for users in the Hub

A "Skip to content" link has been added at the top of the page that allows users to move their focus to the start of the main content.

When selected, it jumps to the main content area if there are apps available in the current view.

QB-14153

Qlik Sense Visualizations: Custom themes intermittently missing in NPrinting report

Images of charts for NPrinting reports were taken before the theme was fully applied. This has now been solved.

QB-14622

Qlik Sense: Header injection redirects into non-existing subdomain

The "Host allow list" in Virtual Proxy settings trusted all subdomains of the given entry. This has been fixed by adding an option for strict validation that only allows the given entry.

If you need strict validation, enable the setting and restart the proxy.

This issue has been solved and the "saturated" flag will now reflect the current RAM usage.

QB-15008

PostgreSQL installer for Qlik Sense

Special characters such as $ or & for the PostgreSQL superuser password could result in installation issues.

The PostgreSQL superuser password is now validated during install and upgrade. If the existing or entered password contains characters which the PostgreSQL installer cannot handle, a warning is displayed that the password needs to be changed before continuing.

QB-16932

ODBC Connector was updated to use a buffer with limited size to load binary data. This should prevent the "Insufficient memory to continue the execution of the program" error.

QB-17178

AMC accidental custom property value deletion

The AMC could accidentally delete custom property values for custom properties for which the user did not have read privileges to see.

QB-17179

Fixed a problem where a "Please wait - refreshing data model" screen would appear and not clear after reloading the script in the data load editor, navigating to the data model viewer, and navigating back to the data load editor.

QB-17252

Qlik Sense Visualizations: When exporting data from a table, the dialog box is cut off

When exporting data from a table on a mobile device, the Data settings dialog is cut off. This was solved by adjusting the size of the dialog to fit the mobile screen.

QB-17367

Visualizations: Pivot table in container shows rows inconsistently

Pivot tables in containers were inconsistently showing rows when expanded or collapsed. This has been solved and rows will not be hidden when there is a show condition in the container object.

QB-17400

Fixed a problem where it was not possible to copy script from the locked scripts in the data load editor. The script can now be copied to the clipboard while locked, but can only be modified when unlocked.

QB-17411

Qlik Enterprise Connectors: MySQL connector fails when previewing or reloading specific timestamp values

Fixed a problem where data preview and reload would fail when MySQL data contains values such as '0000-00-00 00:00:00' in a column with data type timestamp and bulk reader mode is enabled.

QB-17524

Qlik Sense Visualizations: Maximum values in gauge chart do not match

Fixed a rounding error that caused the KPI value and the maximum value to differ in a gauge chart.

QB-17538

Visualizations: KPI color does not reflect white

Selecting white in the color palette did not set the color to white (#ffffff) or show it as white on the visualization. This has been solved and the color correctly changes to white when selecting from the color palette.

QB-17568

Qlik Enterprise Connectors: MySQL connector throws an error when executing the same query more than once

Executing the same non select query (UPDATE query) more than once would throw an error if Bulk Reader Mode was enabled. This has now been resolved.

QB-17571

Qlik Sense: ScatterPlot legend and tooltip show expression instead of date

Fixed a problem where the legend and tooltip were wrongly showing an expression. This was caused when using color by the n:th measure, where the measure pointed at, had a wrong color expression label.

QB-17602

Qlik Sense Hub: "Minutes" field in the "Scheduled trigger" cannot be set in the Hub

In the Hub, the "Minutes" field in the "Scheduled trigger" of a task was disabled. This field has now been enabled the user can set a value between 0 and 59 mins.

QB-17606

Qlik Cloud Visualizations: "Action in Sheet" does not apply to text values

Fixed a problem where select action in sheet would not work if the selected value was a date or other dual value with text and number.

QB-17643

Qlik Sense Visualizations: Error when exporting data to Excel

When exporting data to Excel with Table Formatting, currency formatting was removed. The export feature now supports currencies that have multi-character symbols.

QB-17685

 

IdP users synced via SAML or OIDC authentication issue related to non-Latin characters

Attributes of users synced via an IdP using OIDC or SAML authentication were not persisted when users had attributes with non-Latin characters as a value. This has been resolved. However, if a group assigned to the user has non-Latin characters in the group name, then that group is not synced.

 

Note: If a user belongs to a group that has non-Latin characters in the group name, then that group will not be synced in Qlik Sense. This is a known limitation.

QB-17705

Capability API: The openApp method with openWithoutData set to True

The openApp method was not behaving as expected. If openWithoutData set to True, the method now behaves as expected and opens apps without data.

QB-17759

Qlik Sense Visualizations: Pasted container objects with filter pane do not hold the same dimension values as the copied object

With this fix, the filter pane in a container object will keep the dimensions after copying and pasting.

QB-17789

Qlik Sense Visualizations: Dynamic View refresh not working

An error was thrown ("Refresh Error - There was an error while refreshing the visualization") when trying to refresh a dynamic view in a published app from a consumer node. This has been solved, and it is now possible to have Dynamic View apps published to a stream.

QB-17908

Qlik Cloud Analytics: The Data Manager is not recommending the correct associations in large data sets

For large data sets, the association recommender relies on field samples ordered by load order to make associations. This could result in some associations being incorrectly recommended. The default order has been enhanced to include numeric/plain text.

QB-17928

 

Visualizations: Container with horizon theme has extra borders when rendered as a mashup

Extra borders have been removed and will not be present regardless of the theme used to render a mashup.

When 0 value is added in weeklyInterval and/or monthlyInterval part of cron-strings, a DivideByZeroException occurs. Solved an issue that prevented any task from triggering when DivideByZeroException occurs. With this fix, only the misconfigured custom trigger will not run, other triggers will continue running.

QB-17988

Fixed a problem where switching tabs in a container had a 5-7 second delay.

QB-18156

Visualizations: When using a pick-match logic, the chart's y-axis does not reflect the stated logic

QB-18370

Qlik Sense QMC: PostgreSQL warning displayed after February 2023 upgrade

Qlik Sense QMC displayed a warning message if the PostgreSQL version was below 12.5. This caused version 11.x to be flagged as unsupported even though it is still supported in a standalone installation. This has been fixed by adding additional supported versions of PostgreSQL in the QMC check.

QB-18449

Visualizations: Segment colors in Master Items not showing the right colors

The Segment colors in the Master Items would sometimes use the wrong index from the color palette. This was been fixed by referring to the correct index.

The top search bar was giving an incorrect result count when the search criteria contained a forward slash "/". This has been fixed and the correct number of results are now generated.

The scrollbar became active when right-clicking in embedded sheets. This could create extra space. This issue has been resolved.

QB-18873

Qlik Dataprep: Automatic requests sent when opening sheet

Visualizations: Variable value does not change when dropdown has only one option

Fixed a problem where the variable was not changing if the dropdown had only one option. This was solved by adding a top SELECT option to allow the selection of only one value in the dropdown.

Visualizations: Filter button in the variable section is not working

Fixed a problem where the filter button was hidden behind the variables dialog.

 

Known issues and limitations

The following issues and limitations were identified at release time. The list is not comprehensive but lists all known major issues and limitations.

Clients
  • Third-party extensions are currently not supported on mobile devices, and the Qlik Trusted Extension Developer program does not accredit extensions for use on mobile devices. Generated items might not be visualized properly on a mobile device, depending on individual device specifications, mobile OS, and the size of the Qlik Sense app.
  • When you consume Qlik Sense apps using the Microsoft Edge browser on touch/hybrid devices, the long-press action does not work. This prevents you from accessing functions such as an object’s context menu, which requires a long press in touch mode. This is a Microsoft Edge issue.
    Workaround: If you use a hybrid device, turn off touch mode, and then turn it back on again.
  • Export as Anonymous does not work for mashups deployed in a domain that is different from the domain where Qlik Sense is installed. Export only works for Anonymous if the mashup is deployed in the same domain as Qlik Sense.
  • When using the new Load Extension syntax in the load script, the Data Load Editor syntax completion does not work well after the keyword “Extension” when trying to write the call to an SSE function (AAI function). The script still executes correctly.
  • Legend does not show dimension values after row number 3000.
  • Limitations when exporting a story to PowerPoint:   
    • Titles are not rescaled as HTML. Font settings are not exported.
    • Storytelling effects are not applied.
    • Exported charts might show fixed scroll bars, depending on the export resolution.
  • It is not possible to open the context menu of an org chart on a touch device.
  • When you choose to view data in the context menu in a dynamic chart and make a new selection in the app, you need to refresh the browser for the chart to be displayed again.
Dynamic views
  • Dynamic views that you delete from one app are also deleted from every other app that was using the same view. There is no workaround for this issue. Avoid deleting views that might already be in use by other apps.
  • When you create a new dynamic view in the assets pane, the dropdown menu item does not automatically change to show the charts of the newly created dynamic view if there are any existing dynamic views. You must click on the dropdown menu to choose the newly created view.
  • The data for a dynamic view is automatically refreshed whenever you open a sheet that contains charts for the view. The same happens when you enter and then return from the global selections pane, and when you add a new chart for the view. Refrain from performing these actions on the base app to prevent triggering refreshes.
  • The view of a dynamic chart is cleared and shows a message indicating a view constraint violation whenever you change the selection state of the base app in a way that violates the view's constraints. Refrain from changing the selection state of the base app until it has finished making use of the data in any of the dynamic view charts.
  • The ‘Go to source’ option on a snapshot slide (available on right-click) for a dynamic chart does not select the actual dynamic chart when you change the view to the base app sheet.
  • Changes to chart settings for dynamic view charts using the Exploration menu are lost after refreshing the view.
  • Dynamic views do not support the Trellis extension.
Managing a Qlik Sense site
  • The Edit pane under Custom properties in the Qlik Management Console (QMC) can currently handle a limited number of custom properties. If you want to edit custom property values in the QMC, we recommend keeping the number of custom property values to a maximum of 500. If you want to apply values without modifying them, the QMC can handle up to 10,000 custom property values.
  • When you remove app objects from an application via the QMC interface, deleted objects are not removed from the application’s binary file stored on the file system.
  • It is not possible to use a security rule on the HubSection_* resource to hide the ‘Open hub’ link from the navigation menu when accessing an app as an anonymous user.  
    Workaround: Use reverse proxy to redirect the ‘Open hub’ link to a preferred landing site.
  • Windows service Qlik Engine cannot be started on a node where the Qlik Engine service is disabled through the QMC. Every time Windows restarts for that node, the Qlik Engine service fails to start up and throws an error in Windows event logs. You can prevent this by temporarily disabling the Qlik Engine service in Windows Service Manager.
  • Data connection passwords containing special characters (such as "=", "%", or ";") are not properly encoded when updated via the QMC. This causes authentication errors when trying to connect to specific data sources, which could cause reload tasks to fail.  
    Workaround: Use the data load editor to update the password. Note that once the password is updated, the name of the data connection is automatically appended by "(domain_userId)". You can adjust this later via the QMC.
Qlik Sense Desktop
  • Qlik Sense Desktop can play WebM and Ogg but not MP4 files. This is due to limitations in Chromium.
Connectors
  • REST connector: The ‘Next token’ pagination option does not work when the pagination token has the same value for each page.
  • For connectors in the ODBC Connector Package only the data types listed as supported in the online help have been verified to work correctly in the Preview and Script editor. However, the ODBC Connector Package does not prevent you from loading other data types. In some cases, you can load unsupported data types with the load script.
  • ODBC connector: Database connectors in the ODBC Connector Package do not work properly if the username on the Microsoft Windows system running Qlik Sense Desktop contains letters that are not English alphanumeric characters.
    Workaround: Change the Windows system locale to match the character set that contains the characters used in the username. For example, if the system locale on the system running Qlik Sense Desktop is set to English and a username contains Swedish characters, you must change the system locale to Swedish for the ODBC connector to work properly.
  • The Qlik Salesforce connector does not support PK chunking on sharing objects. PK chunking is only supported on parent objects.
  • The Apache Phoenix connector does not support non-Latin characters in metadata. The connector might return corrupted data or unpredictable query results if you run a query with non-Latin characters in metadata, such as table names, column names, and aliases.
  • REST connection error: "WITH CONNECTION" is not allowed https://community.qlik.com/t5/Official-Support-Articles/Qlik-Sense-May-2023-Patch-3-causes-REST-conn... 
Cloud deployments and Multi-Cloud
  • When you download a pivot table in Qlik Sense Enterprise SaaS, expanded rows are not included but stay collapsed.
