August 20, 2024: What’s New in Qlik Cloud?

Search and replace in expression editor

Users can now search and replace text within the expression editor in Qlik Sense apps, just as they can already do in the script editor and data load editor. This includes a “replace all” option, allowing for quick bulk edits within a single complex expression.

The usability of the expression editor has also been improved by adding a confirmation dialog when closing with unsaved changes.

Tabular reporting template management – Changing source app at time of template upload

An optimization has been introduced to allow a template to be connected to the source app at time of upload. Previously, it had to be done by creating the connection in the Qlik add-in for Microsoft Excel. For example, if a report developer knows that a template is compatible with an app, and a copy of that app is available in another space or tenant, the report developer can upload the template used in the source app directly to the alternate version of the app and the connection will be created during the upload.

Enhanced support for metadata changes in replication and lake landing tasks

Previously, when a metadata change occurred, all tables would be dropped and recreated even if the metadata change did not affect all tables. Now, only the changed tables will be dropped and recreated, thereby improving performance.
