Redesigned documentation

The documentation for Qlik Sense SaaS has been redesigned to meet the needs of each Qlik Sense user role. This will make it easier and more intuitive to find the information for your role in your organization’s Qlik Sense environment.

  • The Analytics for business users section discusses how to use Qlik Sense apps and makes data-informed decisions.

  • The Creating analytics and visualizing data section discusses how to create and design Qlik Sense apps, along with creating and editing visualizations.

  • The Loading and modeling analytics data section discusses how to load, model, and manage data used by Qlik Sense apps. This section can help you better understand how to bring in data from multiple sources and use data load scripts.

  • The Administering Qlik Sense section discusses the different administration roles. It includes information about managing users, system settings, configuration, and handling user resources.

Mutual Information for Key Driver Analysis

Insight Advisor can now analyze and score the mutual Information between fields. This provides a measure of the influence that one field has on another, allowing you to understand which fields are drivers of another target field.

You can also now calculate mutual information between targets and drivers in charts with the MutualInfo function. This allows analysis such as pair-wise mutual information analysis and driver breakdown by value.
