Data Synchronization Example
You work in the retail industry, and business analysts in your enterprise need to analyze product sales trends of a particular region.
You can use a flat file connection to read the product sales details of a particular region from a flat file. You can use Qlik Connector to append data to the QVX file.
Configure a Data Synchronization task with the insert operation to append the product sales details to a QVX file.
- Source
- The source for the mapping is a flat file connection that contains the product sales data. The flat file object is a single source in the Data Synchronization task.
- Target
- Specify the directory of the QVX file to which you want to overwrite or append data. Select the fields from the source object that you want to insert into the target object.
- Mapping
- Map the fields of the flat file source to the Qlik target.
When you run the Data Synchronization task, the Secure Agent reads from the flat file source and writes to the QVX file based on the fields you mapped.
You can load the QVX file to Qlik Sense and analyze the sales trends of a particular region by creating a dashboard and selecting the required filters.
