The assets panel provides a set of items you can use in your visualizations to help you develop an app, or create a sheet in a published app. It contains the visualizations and dimensions contained in the app, as well as a list of available charts and any master items. The assets panel is shown on the left-hand side of the sheet you are editing.
If the assets panel is hidden, click 5, g, é or H in the top left hand corner.
You can save visualizations, dimensions and measures that you want to reuse as master items. These can be edited and updated across all instances in an app.
The assets panel contains the following sections:
| 5 | Charts | A list of all the different chart types you can use to build visualizations. These are included in Qlik Sense by default. When you have added a chart to a sheet, you can add dimensions and measures to it to connect it to the data model. See: Visualizations |
| g | Custom objects |
You can enhance your apps with custom-designed visualization extensions and widgets. Custom objects are not supported in Qlik Sense Cloud. |
| é | Master items |
This is where you create and save reusable dimensions, measures and visualizations as master items. See: Reusing assets with master items See: Dimensions See: Measures |
| H | Fields (not available in a published app) |
All fields in the data model of the app. See: Fields When the Filter by table list displays All tables, all data fields in the app are listed. You can select a table from the list if you want to focus on the fields from that specific table. When you click a field, you can create a measure by clicking 3 or create a dimension by clicking ò. The new measure or dimension is added to the master items. Click ∑ to add the field to the selected visualization, or to the sheet if no visualization is selected. You can create calendar measures by right-clicking a field and selecting Create calendar measures. Calendar measures are added to the master items. All date fields are marked with G and can be expanded to use date & time attributes of the field. Date & time attributes are created automatically when you use Add data. If you used the data load script to load data, you need to create the date & time attributes using derived fields. See: Date & time fields All fields recognized as geopoints in map visualizations are marked with ,. See: Loading map data You can also add new data to the app with the Add button at the bottom, and refresh the data in the app. |
The search field at the top of the assets panel helps you find assets on the different tabs. As you start to type in the search field, all items that have a name or a tag that contains the search string, are presented.
