For many years, Qlik has built its platform on APIs that deliver the capabilities and functionality that Qlik has today. For example, Qlik Sense and Qlik Sense SaaS are \u2018front ends\u2019 built upon Qlik\u2019s APIs. As Qlik evolves, its customers mature, or new OEM partners sign-up, the volume and complexity of capability increases. Especially as clients\u2019 individual Qlik footprints increase. By way of Tenants and Servers as well as Products, or simply due to volume of adoption. Qlik offers its product APIs under three general headings: Embed, Extend, Manage (source qlik.dev<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Harmony for Qlik<\/strong> is an application based solution on the Cyferd Platform Qlik has morphed to a capacity pricing model, and this created increased need for greater control over the actions of Qlik users, especially on Cloud. Being able to offer greater management capability of users, processes, and tasks is what Cyferd Harmony for Qlik can offer, including audit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Collect data via APIs from your entire Qlik estate.

Such as personal or shared data connections or data files e.g. XLSX<\/p>\n\n\n\n From a control and audit perspective, it is important that all corporate IT\/Data\/DevOps and AIOps procedures are complied with, and as such, controls are put in place to monitor, measure, and manage behaviour. This also helps with attaining quality standards and relevant ISOs etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Qlik users will own many of the assets on a Qlik estate. It is important to have life-cycle management of Qlik users\u2019 access controls for when a Qlik user changes roles or leaves an organisation; this includes ownership of assets during their life cycle, from onboarding to off-boarding Qlik users. Cyferd Harmony for Qlik can help to manage, integrate, and deliver processes that cover these areas; this is simple to achieve using standard functionality in the Cyferd Platform. Off-boarding plans can also be created that reassign all connections, apps, and access to the next person in the Qlik role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Harmony for Qlik<\/a> application based solution can be used to manage third party (to Qlik) APIs. This provides a distinct value add under the management or Manage umbrella. Fully integrate with Qlik extensions, such as Inphinity<\/a> and ancoreSoft. As well as other technology platforms including Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. This will deliver further operational efficiency, quality, and more accurate and timely insight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n By optimising your Qlik estate, your storage and compute footprint can also be optimised. This will deliver tangible carbon offset savings and cost savings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With your data stored and backed up by the Cyferd Platform, you can reconfigure your footprint allowing for a robust Qlik disaster recovery solution. These are just some of the capabilities of the Manage functionality, the power of this solutions increases further with Extend and Embed APIs.
