New classic/chart UI for qlik-embed

Introducing classic/chart

classic/chart is a new UI for qlik-embed. classic/chart renders visualizations that have not been converted to nebula.js or use the classic extension API.

Using classic/chart

Like other UIs available through qlik-embed, when you want to use classic/chart in an embedded analytics context, set the ui property to classic/chart. If you use qlik-embed web-components it will look something like this:

<qlik-embed
    ui="classic/chart"
    app-id="<appId>"
    object-id="<objectId>"
></qlik-embed>

classic/chart compatibility

classic/chart will render supported visualizations from Qlik Sense applications. For a full support matrix, refer to the supported charts page.

Third-party extensions

Third-party extensions may not render properly within embedded contexts compared to the native Qlik Sense experience if the extension manipulates private code such as CSS. Manipulating CSS in the native experience is not supported by Qlik, therefore, it’s not supported in qlik-embed.

Additionally, for best compatibility, it is suggested to enable iframe mode when working with extensions:

<qlik-embed
    ui="classic/chart"
    app-id="<appId>"
    object-id="<objectId>"
    iframe="true"
></qlik-embed>

To learn more about third-party extension compatibility with qlik-embed, please contact the extension author.

Limitations

classic/chart does not support the following features:

  • Right-click context menu
  • Export data

You can learn more about qlik-embed on the Why qlik-embed page, or review the classic/chart example.
