Overview

Qlik MCP Server is a node.js application that enables Qlik Cloud API access to extract data from visualizations and interact with Qlik applications. It provides tools to list all applications available in the workspace, get all sheets and charts in a specific application, and retrieve data from a specific chart. The server must be configured with the user's Qlik Cloud API key and access details using environment variables. To use the server, one must first create a Qlik Cloud API key, save it securely, and then set environment variables like QLIK_API_KEY, QLIK_BASE_URL, and QLIK_APP_ID in a .env file. The application can be run either as a standalone node.js server or using Docker, and supported integrations include Claire desktop and cursor.

What are the main limitations of Qlik MCP?

Customization is limited; it only exposes a fixed set of endpoints for listing apps, sheets, charts, and extracting chart data, and requires manual configuration of API keys and environment variables.

What does the Qlik MCP Server need to run?

It requires a Qlik Cloud API key, the tenant base URL, and optionally an app ID. These are set via environment variables (e.g., QLIK_API_KEY, QLIK_BASE_URL, QLIK_APP_ID) in a .env file or passed to Docker.
