How to Use

The plugin utilizes a WordPress shortcode to insert Qlik Saas objects into a page. There are currently 1 shortcode available to insert Qlik Sense sheet.

Qlik Saas Sheet

This shortcode allows you to iframe a sheet. The shortcode syntax is as follows:

[qlik-saas-single-sheet id="1ff88551-9c4d-41e0-b790-37f4c11d3df8" height="400" width="500"]

Parameters are as follows:
* id=””: Is the object id as found in the “dev-hub/single-configurator” or the Qlik Explorer for Developers
* height=””: The height of the visualization in pixels.
* appid=”” (optional): The variable qs_appid is added to store the value from the custom field appid. The custom field is used to be able to use a separate app for each page rather than the apps defined in the plugin config.

Qlik Saas Object

This shortcode allows you to embed objects for mashup. The shortcode syntax is as follows:

[qlik_saas_object id="selections" height="50"]
[qlik_saas_object id="CSxZqS" height="400"]

Parameters are as follows:
* id=””: Is the object id as found in the “dev-hub/single-configurator” or the Qlik Explorer for Developers. Add “selections” to get current selections toolbar
* height=””: The height of the visualization in pixels.
