3 min readNov 12, 2024
This article gives an overview of Qlik’s data Load. Data is imported, transformed, and arranged for analysis using Qlik loads i.e. Inline load, Resident load, Preceding Load, etc.
Inline Load
- An inline load in Qlik is a way to load small, custom datasets directly into the Qlik script, without the need for an external file or database.
Complex Example
Resident Load
- A Resident Load used to load data from a table that has already been loaded in the same script.
- It allows you to make changes to the data, like applying calculations or transformations.
Preceding Load
- A Preceding Load is used to make changes or calculations to data before it is loaded into the final table.
Incremental Load
Binary Load
- Binary Load is a quick and efficient way to reuse data models from other Qlik apps.
Apply Map
- Apply Map is used to map a value from a source field to a corresponding value from a mapping table.
