Enabling multi-language natural language questions

By default, Insight Advisor (in-app) in Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows only supports English. To enable other languages, you need to set up a multi-cloud deployment with a Qlik Cloud tenant. For more information on available languages, see Supported languages.

Do the following:

1. Set up a multi-cloud deployment

   1. Set up a multi-cloud deployment with a local bearer token. For details, see Distributing apps to Qlik Cloud.

   2. Make sure the API endpoint URL ends with a “/”. For example, if your Qlik Cloud tenant URL is https://demos.qlik.com, the API endpoint should be https://demos.qlik.com/.

2. Configure the Service Dispatcher

   1. Stop the Qlik Sense Service Dispatcher, which handles the execution of the Qlik Licensing Service.

   2. Open the services.conf file, typically located at %Program Files%\Qlik\Sense\ServiceDispatcher\services.conf.

   3. Find the [nl-parser] section.

   4. Under [nl-parser.parameters], add the parameter:

      --multi-cloud-deployment-name=<Your_Qlik_Cloud_deployment_name>.

   5. Save and close the file.

3. Enable multi-language support

   1. Add a system variable named NLU_MULTI_LINGUAL and set its value to true.

   2. Open the capabilities.json file located at C:\Program Files\Qlik\Sense\CapabilityService.

   3. In the capabilities.json file, add a feature flag named NLU_MULTI_LINGUAL and set it to true.

4. Restart services

   • Restart the Qlik Sense Service Dispatcher and the Qlik Sense Proxy Service.

For multi-node installations, repeat these steps on all nodes.

Data transfer considerations

Multi-language support in Insight Advisor is achieved using a multi-cloud deployment. This configuration involves transfer of data from your on-premises Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows deployment to Qlik Cloud, and should be considered with respect to regional and organizational data transfer policies.
