Single configurator

Warning noteDEPRECATED.

This feature is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Use the Single Integration API instead.

The Single configurator is a tool that provides an easy way of creating simple mashup pages without having to write any code at all. It returns a Qlik Sense object, which is identified in an URL. The Qlik Sense object is typically a visualization from an app, for example a Line chart.

Information noteThe Single configurator creates a URL that returns a complete HTML page that contains something generic, of which an embedded visualization is an example. This URL can be embedded in a web page by including it in an iframe, for example .

Launching Single configurator

Select Single configurator from the navigation menu in Dev Hub to launch the Single configurator.

You can also launch it from a web browser, using the following links:

  • With Qlik Sense running: https://<ServerName>/dev-hub/single-configurator
  • With Qlik Sense Desktop running: http://localhost:4848/dev-hub/single-configurator
