I've been using QlikSense for years and Iโve always wanted a simple, fast way to audit apps in any Qlik environment, with no installs, no setup, no headaches, and no paid third-party services. ๐
So I built ๐ค๐ฆ ๐ ๐ฒ๐๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐๐ฎ ๐๐ ๐ฝ๐น๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฟ : a free Chrome extension designed for Qlik developers (Cloud & On-Prem).
It integrates directly with your existing Qlik Sense session using the official Enigma.js library, ensuring that all operations are performed locally in your browser without exposing your data to any external service.
- Compatible with Qlik Sense SaaS (cloud) and on-premise deployments
- No third-party servers or APIs involved
- No data leaves your environment
It lets you:
โ
Export all metadata to Excel (.xlsx) in 1 click (sheets, measures, dimensions, variables, bookmarks, stories, objects)
โ
Export the data model in 1 click (table view in Excel)
โ
Export the script to .qvs + ๐ dark mode for the editor
โ
Locate any object easily
โ
Search instantly across the entire app (find where a value is used in Set Analysis, a field, a variable, a measure...).
โ
Bulk copy/delete any object type and including across (Cloud โ On-Prem) and different tenants
โ
Change object ownership (great after migrations to reassign personal sheets at any moment)
โ
Analyze field usage in 1 click
โ
Run a Quick Scan to spot optimization opportunities (non-optimized aggregations/expressions)
โ
Use ready-to-go script functions, with a cloud automations catalog coming soon ๐ค
Format and beautify the expressions.
โ
Automatically align scripts and expressions.
โ
Add [brackets] to field names in scripts.
โ
Uppercase function names.
:chart_increasing: improved code readability and maintainability. :raising_hands:
โฆand plenty more to make developersโ lives easier. ๐
Install the extension :
