Changelog

Qlik has added the com.qlik.v1.analytics.analytics-app-client.sheet-view.opened event to the audit service in Qlik Cloud. This event is triggered whenever a sheet is displayed in Qlik Sense, allowing for detailed analysis of how many times a sheet in an app has been viewed and by which user.

The audit entry structure is as follows:

{
  "id": "auditEntryId",
  "data": {
    "appId": "appId",
    "sheetId": "sheetId",
    "sheetState": "analysis|edit|simpleEdit"
  },
  "eventId": "eventId",
  "eventTime": "2024-05-01T01:13:16.000Z",
  "eventType": "com.qlik.v1.analytics.analytics-app-client.sheet-view.opened",
  "source": "com.qlik/analytics",
  "tenantId": "tenantId",
  "userId": "userId"
}

A view will be recorded each time the sheet is navigated to by users accessing via the Qlik Sense client, via iFrame, or via the classic/app interface with qlik-embed. Events are not generated for any other embedding approaches. Actions such as toggling between edit and view mode without changing sheet will not register as additional views of the sheet.

The value of sheetState details the consumption mode active when the user opened the sheet:

• analysis when in view only mode.
• simpleEdit when in edit mode.
• edit when in the advanced options edit mode.

This event is available via the Audits API and can also be viewed in the Events section of the Management Console.
