Qlik Cloud

Qlik Cloud is an MCP server that connects large language model clients to the Qlik Cloud API to query analytics workspaces and extract business intelligence data. Built for data analysts, business intelligence engineers, and AI developers, it allows models like Claude to browse apps, inspect sheets, list visualizations, and pull underlying chart data. By bridging LLMs with cloud-hosted Qlik environments, users can automate dashboard exploration, summarize visualization metrics, and feed structured business reports directly into conversational assistants. The server includes configurable controls for pagination, request retries, delay parameters, and maximum row retrieval limits to manage rate limiting across tenant instances. With support for standard runtime environments such as Deno, Node.js, and Docker, it provides a direct interface for translating visual analytics and Qlik dashboards into actionable context for downstream AI workflows.
