Migrating apps
Migrating apps means moving apps from an older version of Qlik Sense to a newer version.
You are most likely to need to migrate an app in the following circumstances:
- When upgrading Qlik Sense.
- When importing an old app.
Apps are migrated automatically, both during an upgrade of Qlik Sense and when importing old apps. If the migration is successful, no manual steps are required. Migrated apps are available in the hub.
You can migrate apps from version 0.95 of Qlik Sense and newer, to more recent versions of Qlik Sense.
Apps that have not been migrated
When apps have not been migrated, the Apps tab on the QMC start page, shows the number of unmigrated apps. The number does not necessarily indicate that a migration has failed, it may also be that there are apps that have not yet been migrated.
With unmigrated apps, the apps overview page has an extra column, Migration status.
The following four status values can be displayed when migrating an app:
- Successful
- Ongoing
- Pending
- Migration failed
Any status, except Successful, will add to the number displayed on the apps tab on the QMC start page.
Migrating apps manually
If some apps have failed to migrate automatically, you can try migrating them manually.
Do the following:
-
Navigate to the apps overview page.
-
Select the apps with the status Migration failed.
-
In the action bar at the bottom, click Migrate.
The migration is started. If other apps are being migrated, the selected apps will have the status Pending.
The apps are migrated.
