Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Answers about visualizing FTP data in QlikView automatically

How do I set up an FTP connection to QlikView using Kondado? ▼
Start by adding FTP as a data source in your Kondado account, entering your server credentials and file path details. Then select QlikView as your destination and choose the CSV pipeline to begin replicating your file data. The entire setup requires no coding or intermediate databases, allowing you to start visualizing your files within minutes.
What types of dashboards can I build with FTP data in QlikView? ▼
You can create operational dashboards tracking inventory levels from uploaded CSV files, sales performance monitors analyzing transaction logs, or marketing analytics showing campaign results over time. The row_number and __file_basename fields help you compare data across different file versions and track historical trends. These custom reports turn scattered file data into centralized business intelligence for your entire team.
How often does FTP data update in my QlikView reports? ▼
Kondado lets you configure automated updates on a schedule that fits your business needs, ranging from every 5 minutes to daily intervals. You choose the frequency based on how often your FTP files change, ensuring your QlikView dashboards stay current without manual refreshes. This keeps your team working with the latest information without technical intervention.
Which KPIs should I track when visualizing FTP file data? ▼
Track file upload frequency and data volume trends using the __file_basename field to monitor when new information arrives from different departments or locations. You can also measure row counts over time to identify data growth patterns or detect missing information in operational logs. These metrics help operations teams ensure complete data delivery and spot anomalies in business processes quickly.
Are there pre-built report templates available for FTP and QlikView? ▼
Kondado does not offer pre-built report templates for this specific combination, allowing you to build completely custom dashboards tailored to your unique file structures. You can design reports that match your specific business terminology and visualization preferences using QlikView's native tools. This flexibility ensures your dashboards address the exact metrics your team needs to monitor.
Can I share my QlikView dashboards built from FTP data with my team? ▼
Once your FTP data flows into QlikView, you can distribute insights using QlikView's built-in sharing features, including email distributions and server-based access controls. Your colleagues can view updated reports without needing access to the original FTP server or understanding the data replication process. This simplifies collaboration across departments while maintaining data consistency.
What file formats from FTP can I visualize in QlikView? ▼
Currently, Kondado supports CSV files from your FTP server, capturing data along with metadata fields like row_number and column_number to handle varying file structures. This covers most business use cases including transaction logs, inventory lists, and marketing data exports. The pipeline processes these files automatically, preparing them for immediate visualization in your QlikView environment.
Do I need technical skills to connect FTP files to QlikView? ▼
No coding or technical expertise is required to establish the connection between your FTP server and QlikView through Kondado. The platform handles the technical complexity of file replication and data preparation automatically, presenting you with ready-to-visualize information. If your team later decides to use different analytics tools, you can easily redirect the same FTP connection to Power BI or Google Sheets without starting over.
