I'm currently developing a web app where I would like to add qlik sense utilities into it.

The thing is even after reading all the different documentations about it I still find it ambiguous how to implement qlik sense api.

Can anyone help me ?!

Thanks in advance.

  • What have you done? Do you have some code? – RPichioli Sep 12 '16 at 13:20
  • hello @RPichioli thanks for the interest here is what i've done : https://github.com/speeta/qlik-test I want to know if i must run the html page under the same server/port as qlik sense dev-hub coudn't i just run it elsewhere ? Thanks – H.E Sep 13 '16 at 09:01
  • You're welcome @H.E, I don't know too much about qlik and it's ambient configurations. The JS is missing a last "});", the console is warning something about syntax? – RPichioli Sep 13 '16 at 12:28
  • @RPichioli i've been able to make my code work the only problem that i have now is how to use what i have without needing the qlik sense's desktop app – H.E Sep 13 '16 at 15:52
  • Hmm sure, it's really strange to make WEB apps dependending on Desktop local apps. I'll try to find something that can help you. – RPichioli Sep 13 '16 at 16:11
  • @RPichioli ok thank you so much – H.E Sep 14 '16 at 13:46

The Qlik Sense content can be embedded through

  1. iFrame integration using the App Integration API (single integration)
  2. Div integration using the Capability APIs.(provided by qlik)

Method 1

First method would be pretty easier

References: https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense-developer/3.0/Subsystems/Mashups/Content/AppIntegrationAPI/app-integration-api-examples.htm

  • step 1: login to qlik sense desktop, navigate to single api.
    Single api is app provider by qlik sense to identify qlik applications with specific application ID.

  • step 2: get the application ID which you need.

  • step 3: use IFrame in HTML page to embed qlik objects.
    Paste the iframe tag in a html page and set the height and width

  • step 4: Example ApplicationID would be like this: 2fd30673-866d-4bb6-b3be-c5708555ee1f

Method 2

Using Capabality API
Configure web application to communicate with qlik server. Host and port number of the qlik server should be defined.

Using java script in a html
Sample javascript code :

var config = {
    host: "myhost.com",
    prefix: "/",
    port: window.location.port,
    isSecure: true
};
require(["js/qlik"], function(qlik) {
    // open the app
    var app = qlik.openApp("c31e2aba-3b46-4b13-8b87-c5c2514dea1d", config);
    // insert Qlik objects into the page.
    app.getObject(document.getElementById("divID"), "objectID");
}
