Publishing to Qlik Sense Enterprise streams

The Qlik Sense Enterprise administrator publishes applications to a stream from the Qlik Management Console. The sheets and stories in the application are then available to the users that have access to the stream. You can publish your own applications from the hub, to a stream which you have publish access to. You can also move your published applications between streams from the hub.

An application that has been published to a stream is locked, although the owner of a published application can edit the thumbnail, application name, and the description of their published application. Others can interact with the visualizations and analyze the data. However, no one can edit the public sheets and public stories that were published with the application. If you have the correct access rights, you can add your private sheets and stories to a published application.

If you own a published application, you can add your private sheets and stories to a published application, and approve your own and community sheets for inclusion in the public sheets of an application. You cannot edit the public sheets and public stories of the application, but you can make them private sheets and stories if you want to edit them.

If a published application needs to be changed, it can be republished, updating the published application with content from a duplicate.

Streams

The content in the hub is organized in streams. A stream is a collection of applications that a group of users has specific access to. The users of the stream can have different access rights. Some users might only be able to read the content in the stream, while others might have the rights to publish their content to the stream.

By default, Qlik Sense includes a stream called Everyone, which all users have both read and publish rights to.

All users have their own spaces, Work and Published, for the content they own. Work contains personal unpublished applications. Published contains links to your published applications. These links enable you to keep track of your published work and perform tasks such as moving or duplicating a published application more easily. You can also mark your favorite applications for easy access. The Favorites space appears after you tag at least one application as a favorite, and then refresh the page.

The read and publish rights on the streams are defined in the Qlik Management Console.

You can use a duplicate of a published application to use as a template for a new one.

You can move your own applications from the hub between streams to which you have publish access.

Sheets and stories

You can create private sheets and stories as a part of a published application. These sheets and stories can be published as part of the application. Published sheets and stories can be added to public sheets of an application by the application owner. You can also remove public sheets and stories from your application and make them published sheets and stories.

When working with a published application, sheets and stories are organized in sections in the application overview depending on their status.

Bookmarks

Bookmarks created in an application before it is published will become public bookmarks in the published application. After the application is published, new bookmarks can be created and published as community bookmarks.

Interacting with applications

The tasks that you can perform in an application depend on whether or not that application has been published.
