The hub

When Qlik Sense starts up, you arrive at the hub. The hub is where you find all the apps you have access rights to use. Click an app in the hub to open it in a separate tab.

If the hub has been disabled by your administrator, you arrive at the app overview when Qlik Sense starts up.

You find your own apps under Work, as well as apps that have been published from the Qlik Management Console organized in streams.

You find files shared from QlikView under QlikView documents.

You find reports distributed from Qlik NPrinting under Reports.
