Adding data from Qlik DataMarket
When adding data from Qlik DataMarket, you select categories and then filter the fields of data available in those categories. The DataMarket categories contain large amounts of data, and filtering allows you to take subsets of the data and reduce the amount of data loaded.
Do the following:
-
Click Add data.
-
Click Qlik DataMarket in the Select a data source step to display the Qlik DataMarket packages.
-
Select a data package.
Information noteTo use data in packages marked Premium, you must supply your access credentials. If access credentials have been applied, the premium packages are marked Licensed and are available for data selection. -
Select a data set in the Select a dataset step.
Depending on the DataMarket package you select, you might have to select several subcategories within the package to get to individual data sets that contain data. Data sets are distinguished by the ] icon next to the data set description. Clicking the ] icon displays the data set's metadata.
Selecting the data set creates a connection to that specific data collection.
-
Select at least one filter from each dimension, measure and time period in the Select data to load step.
The left pane lists the dimensions, measures and time periods. If you click on a dimension, measure or time period in the left pane, the values of that dimension, measure or time period are displayed in the right pane.

Choose whether to continue to work on the data or to load the data into the app:
- Click Prepare data to continue to add data sources, transform the data, or resolve potential problems in Data manager.
- Click Load data and finish to load the added data into the app and go to the sheet. This will also reload all existing data from data sources.
If serious problems are detected, you need to resolve the problems in Data manager before you can load data into the app.
