Optionally, if you need to limit access to data in your app, add Section Access to your load script.
Section Access is used to control the security of your apps. You add a security table to define which users can see what. Qlik Sense then uses that information to reduce data to the appropriate scope when each user opens the app.
Optionally, prepare your app's logical model for Insight Advisor.
Insight Advisor uses a logical model to generate analyses. You can define your own logical model for the app rather than letting Insight Advisor make one from learned precedents.
Optionally, add synonyms, custom analyses, or example questions for Insight Advisor.
You can define synonyms for terms in your data for use with Insight Advisor. You can also define analyses that should be used when users search for specific things. You can define example questions to offer app users in Insight Advisor.
If you are using an existing connection, you can add data using Data manager or Data load editor. Data manager offers a guided experience for adding data. Data load editor allows you to script the loading of your data.

If you have data files stored on-premise that you want to use with your analytics apps, you need to add them to Qlik Cloud.
If the dataset is not likely to require regular updates, you can manually upload the dataset. Once it is uploaded, you can use the data catalog to add the data you your app.

If you have data stored on the web, in the cloud, or in databases, you can access your data to Qlik Cloud using a connector. Qlik Sense has a range of connectors available.
Once you have added your connections to Qlik Cloud, you have two options:
You can create a dataset from your connection. This creates a data file in Qlik Cloud that data from your connection is loaded into. This makes it faster to load data from connection data sources.
You can load directly from the connection in your app.
You can create datasets from data accessed from your connections

You can use scripts to load, transform, and export data for use in apps. Scripts are useful when you need to transform data, but do not want to create a full analytics app.
Create a script in the Create page of the Analyticsactivity center.
A Qlik Sense or QlikView app: Apps are task-specific, purpose-built applications. Apps contain data loaded from data sources that is interpreted through visualizations.
The Qlik Sense Mobile app: A mobile app for iOS and Android devices. In the mobile app, you connect to and interact with your cloud data. You can work with your available apps.
The term dataset is sometimes synonymous with table. It can refer to the original source table, the table after undergoing transformations, or the fact and dimension tables in a data mart.
It can also refer to a logical table, where there are several instance tables and views:
Current data
History, which holds previous versions of the table
A QlikView Data file (QVD) is a file containing data exported from Qlik Sense or QlikView. It is a native Qlik Sense format optimized for loading data quickly. You can also generate QVD files with Qlik Talend Data Integration.
The data catalog is a component in Data manager and Data load editor that enables you to select and load data from all the datasets to which you have access.
Data manager is an app component that allows you to load and manage data sources in an app. You can also preview and associate the data and perform data transformations.
The load script is a sequence of statements that defines what data to load and how to link the different loaded tables. It can be generated with the Data manager, or with the Data load editor, where it also can be viewed and edited.
A field contains values, loaded from a data source. At a basic level, a field corresponds to a column in a table. Fields are used to create dimensions and measures in visualizations.
Data connections are used to load data from external data sources into Qlik Cloud for the purpose of creating analytics, in the form of apps and scripts. Data connections can load data from databases and remotely stored files.
Activity centers are the central point of access for apps, spaces, and other content. There are four activity centers in Qlik Cloud: Insights, Analytics, Qlik Talend Data Integration, and Administration. Activity centers were formerly known as hubs.
