Activity centers

Activity centers provide logical groupings of content in Qlik Cloud based on user activities. This replaces the previous platform hub experience in Qlik Cloud. Each activity center has its own Home page and its own sections, with some overlap for shared activities.

You will only see the activity centers to which your user role and space permissions give you access. For example, if you have an Analyzer entitlement, you would only see the Insights activity center in Qlik Cloud. If you were added to a shared space and given permission to create content in that space, you would then see the Analytics activity center as well.

There are four activity centers in Qlik Cloud:

• Insights

• Analytics

• Data Integration

• Administration

Insights

The Insights activity center provides options for consuming apps and other analytic content. Previously, this was part of the Qlik Cloud Analytics hub. Insights offers a focused and curated experience for analysts exploring analytic content. Insights offers no options for creation.

Insights contains the following sections:

• Home

• Favorites

• Collections

• Browse

  Browse offers access to the content available to the user. In the Qlik Cloud Analytics hub, Browse was called Catalog. In the Analytics activity center, Browse is still called Catalog.
