What’s new in Qlik Sense 1.1?

Available in a Qlik Sense installation

Qlik Sense Workbench is now available in a Qlik Sense installation as well as in a Qlik Sense Desktop installation.

See: Launching Qlik Sense Workbench

Redesign of the Mashup workbench

Mashup workbench has been re-designed to make it easier to use the generated mashup as a start for more advanced mashups. In Qlik Sense version 1.0 both html files and the javascript files were modified. Definitions for lists and hypercubes were in the qext files and only supported a small subset of the options available in Qlik engine. In Qlik Sense version 1.1 everything is in the javascript file and you can modify it in Mashup workbench or in a standard text editor.

Closing session, app connection and web socket

You can close and discard the Session objects created in your mashup. Use the destroySessionObject method in the Mashup API.

See: destroySessionObject method

You can also close the app connection which also closes the web socket. Use the close method in the Mashup API.

See: close method

Master objects in Single configurator

You can now use master objects in single configurator.

Multiple apps in mashup

Mashup workbench now has the capability to generate code for multiple Qlik Sense apps in the mashups. A new drop-down list lets the developer switch between apps and make multiple connections to apps in a single mashup page.

See: Adding objects from multiple Qlik Sense apps

Improved format of generated code in Mashup workbench

The format of the generated code in Mashup workbench has been improved for Qlik Sense version 1.1. When opening a mashup created with an earlier version, you have the option to convert to the new format.

See: Opening an existing mashup
