BSI 5.0 is the largest release yet: interactive wizards that build the command line for you, a --dry-run mode worth its name, a live view of runs in progress, much better support for air-gapped environments, and a doctor command that tells you why a run failed.
HelpButton.qs deepdive: Move beyond basic help links to build a complete in-app support layer. Discover patterns for contextual documentation, structured bug reports, user feedback, inline tooltips, and multi-language support across Qlik Cloud and client-managed deployments.
Two open source PowerShell scripts for read-only analysis of the Qlik Sense client-managed repository db — table sizes, health metrics, user and group membership insights, and group bloat detection. This helps optimizing the repo db and improve performance in the Qlik Sense environment.
HelpButton.qs 2.1 adds a feedback dialog with star ratings, configurable tooltips for any Qlik Sense object, a theming system with built-in presets, and full translation support for 9 languages. Available for both Cloud and client-managed.
HelpButton.qs 2.0 adds a native Qlik Sense extension that works on both Cloud and client-managed, as an option to the original HTML injection variants. Customizable help menus, context-aware links, and built-in bug reporting — all configurable from the extension's property panel.
Onboard.qs 1.5.0 adds selective tour export, layout container support, and accessibility improvements to the open source Qlik Sense onboarding extension. Works on Qlik Cloud and client-managed QSEoW.
Build guided, step-by-step onboarding tours for your Qlik Sense apps with onboard.qs. A visual tour editor, Markdown content, theming presets, and import/export — all in a single lightweight extension that works on both Qlik Cloud and Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows.
Add a custom Help button to your Qlik Sense toolbar with qs-help-button. Configurable links, context-sensitive URLs, and an integrated bug report dialog that auto-captures user, app, and sheet context. Open source, zero dependencies, installs in five minutes.
Let's do a deep-dive into the logs of client-managed Qlik Sense (QSEoW), looking at what kind of logs it creates. The qs-log-scanner tool captures, groups, and visualizes log subsystems and log levels so you can understand which real-time signals exist for monitoring your Qlik Sense environment.
Butler 15.0 is a major release that extends monitoring and alerting to all task types in Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows. Previously, only reload tasks were fully supported. This release adds comprehensive support for external program tasks, user sync tasks, distribute tasks, and preload tasks.
Analyze QVD field distributions directly in VS Code with Ctrl-Q QVD Viewer's new profiling feature. Get interactive charts, statistical analysis, histograms for numeric fields, and export results as Qlik .qvs scripts
When you're developing Qlik Sense applications, QVD files are often used as part of your data architecture. Historically it's been hard to view the data in them outside of Sense or QlikView - that changes now with a new extension for VS Code!
