I am currently at the Masters Summit for QlikView in San Francisco, where I just got a really cool demo from Rob Wunderlich. Rob built an extension object that integrates with Amazon Echo (want!) and allows you to control Qlik Sense using voice commands. Check out the video below.
Just as a reminder, if you weren’t able to join us at the Masters Summit in San Francisco this time, we have upcoming events in New York City and Copenhagen later this year. Check out the website for more information.
We now offer monthly live online training on QlikView 11 extensions:
QlikView Extensions offer nearly unlimited possibility to extend the look, feel, behavior and functionality of QlikView. Unfortunately, most QlikView developers seem to avoid them. While many may simply not need extensions, I often get the impression that a second, more important reason is that most QlikView developers currently miss the required web development skills.
For QlikView developers wanting to bridge the gap between QlikView and extension development, the lack of documentation and scattered examples can make it seem like a daunting task. In reality though, once you find the right resources it is a relatively small step.
The goal of this post is two-fold. First it aims to provide a few key resources that will help you quickly start developing extensions. Secondly, it is meant as a continually updated repository of QlikView extension examples, tutorials, documentation and relevant forum discussions.
Today I read the blog post “Green Is The Colour” by Henric Cronström on QlikTech’s Business Discovery Blog. In this post, Henric points to the fact that, while green may be QlikView’s signature colour, it is the unassociated, gray values that are a crucial part of the discovery process.
While I completely agree with Henric that the colour coding is integral to the QlikView experience, his post did leave me wondering. Does it always have to be green?
