Welcome!
This blog is run as a personal project by me (Göran Sander), I am also the founder of Ptarmigan Labs AB.
Ptarmigan Labs (the company) provides consulting services around Business Intelligence in general, and the Qlik Sense suite of products in particular.
With 20+ years of IT industry experience, I have during past 15 years focused on developing and running Business Intelligence solutions using Qlik Sense, applying modern DevOps concepts to Sense, cloud hosting and all kinds of different databases and online sources.
I am a five-year Qlik Luminary, inaugural member of the 2021 and 2022 Qlik Partner Ambassador program, and creator of several DevOps tools for Qlik Sense.
I was responsible for Spotify’s Qlik environment during 7-8 years of my ten year tenure there.

I would like to see more flexibility! 🙂
Mail notification to the App Creator.
You want even more flexibility…?
And here I was worried Butler was becoming too much of a doing-everything-tool… 😆
Jokes aside, it’s a good idea.
But difficult or impossible to implement.
We can get the owner for an app, but there is no information in Sense about the email adress or similar for that user.
Thus – if we don’t have any contact details of the app owner – how can we contact her/him?
And it’s even more difficult with app creator, as that information just isn’t available via the Qlik Sense APIs.
Sure, at some point it was written to log files that a particular user created a certain app.
But if the owner of the app was later changed, the log files will be the only place containing information about who the original app creator was.
I think… might have to dig into this, but I am pretty sure that’s how things work.
