Analytics activity center

The Analytics activity center provides creation options for creating and sharing analytic content with other users.

Previously, this was part of the Qlik Cloud Analytics hub experience. Analytics contains the Create page, which provides all creation options previously found under Add new in the old navigation bar.

Analytics contains the following sections:

• Home

• Create

• Favorites

• Collections

• Catalog

• Automations

• Alerts

• Subscriptions

• Getting started

Home

After your first login, you will start in Home when you log into Qlik Cloud. Here, you can view various content, including your apps, scripts, charts, and notes. You can easily customize what collections of content appear in your home.

Customizing Home

Click Add widgets to customize your personal Home. Choose from favorites, collections, apps, data, charts, notes, ML experiments, automations and scripts. You can also show content that has been recently used, created, or updated.

Click a widget to add or remove it from your home page.

Create

The Create page provides all options for creating analytic content in Qlik Cloud. Create replaces Add new in the old navigation bar. Click the content you want to create or upload. Click Learn more to read a description of the content, with links to the helpsite.

Favorites

Catalog

In Catalog, you can view the apps and spaces to which you have access, as well as other content.

Catalog allows you to filter on:

• Spaces

• Search terms
• Content types:
  • Charts
  • Apps
  • Data
  • Scripts
  • Notes
  • Links
  • Automations
  • ML deployments
  • ML experiments
  • Glossaries
  • Assistants
  • Knowledge bases
  • Data products
• Owners
• Creators
• Tags.

You can select individual spaces from the spaces drop-down to view content from that space. Select All filters to display the filter pane. When the filter pane is active the All filters box is grayed out. The box displays the number of active filters.

You can view content in either the Tile or List view.

Apps and other content can be sorted alphabetically, by creation date, by modification date, or recently used. You can filter content by those you own or by those others own.

To learn more about Catalog, see Understanding your data with catalog tools.

Spaces

Spaces are areas where apps and other content are stored. Spaces can be personal, shared, or managed.

All users have a personal space where apps they create are stored by default. Personal spaces are private. You can share your personal content by moving them to a shared space.

Users with the Shared Space Creator role can create shared spaces. Shared spaces are private when first created. Shared spaces allow collaborative development of apps and other content. Spaces also limit access to apps in the space. Access to apps in the space is granted by adding members to the space.

Managed spaces can be created by tenant or analytics administrators, or users with the Managed Space Creator role. Managed spaces are used to provide strictly controlled access to apps that might have sensitive data. Apps are developed in other spaces and then published to the managed space.

You can select spaces to which you have access from the drop-down in Catalog.

Collections

Collections enable you to group content such as apps, charts, notes, and links.

To add content to a collection, click > Add to collection on any content type.

If you are using Qlik Sense Mobile SaaS, you also have a Mobile Content collection. Apps that you have opened in the Qlik Sense Mobile SaaS app are automatically added to Mobile Content.

By default, collections are private. Tenant admins and analytic admins can make collections public to share them with all other members of the tenant. Public collections do not change members' access to content in spaces. Members will only be able to see content in public collections to which they already have access. To make a collection public, click on the collection, select Make public, and click Make public. To make a public collection private again, click , select Make private, and click Make private.

Automations

In Automations, you can view, create, and test automations. You require the Automations Creator role to create automations.

For more information, see Qlik Application Automation.

Alerts

In Alerts, you can view a list of all alerts owned by you, as well as alerts to which you have been added as a recipient. The Alerts page contains details about each alert, including its name, owner, associated app, and whether it is being evaluated on a schedule.

You can filter and sort the alerts on the Alerts page. You can refine your list by alert owner (anyone, you, or others), or search for alerts owned by a specific user. The alerts in the list can be sorted by time of last evaluation, the last time triggered, or alphabetically by name.

Subscriptions

In Subscriptions, you can view and modify subscriptions you own, as well as subscriptions to which you have been added as a recipient. The Subscriptions page contains details about each subscription, including its name, owner, associated app, and schedule.

You can filter and sort the subscriptions on the Subscriptions page. You can refine your list by owner (anyone, you, or others), or search for subscriptions owned by a specific user. The subscriptions in the list can be sorted by time last sent, time they are next scheduled to be sent, or alphabetically by name.

For more information about creating and managing subscriptions, see Scheduling reports with subscriptions.

Getting started

Getting started contains resources to help you get started with analytics in Qlik Cloud. There are videos for learning how to consume analytics and creating dashboards, as well as demo apps.
