Connect Salesforce and QlikSense

Connecting Salesforce and QlikSense could enable a company to transfer customer, sales, or operational data from Salesforce into QlikSense for advanced analytics and reporting. This integration could support more informed decision-making by making Salesforce data accessible for visualization and analysis within QlikSense dashboards.

You can build this integration on the System2System platform. We design the connection between Salesforce and QlikSense around the way you work — not as an off-the-shelf connector, but to fit your systems.

Why connect Salesforce and QlikSense?

A company operating both Salesforce and QlikSense could benefit from connecting these systems to enable data exchange between their sales and analytics platforms. Without such a connection, staff may need to manually transfer data from Salesforce to QlikSense, which can lead to duplicate data entry, errors, and wasted time. Additionally, when records are maintained separately in each system, there is a risk that information in QlikSense could become outdated if it is not regularly updated from Salesforce. This can result in business decisions being made on the basis of incomplete or stale data. If a connection were established, it could allow for the transfer of key data such as sales leads, account information, opportunities, and revenue figures from Salesforce to QlikSense, where it could be analyzed and visualized for reporting and business intelligence purposes. The specific data that can be exchanged depends on what each system exposes through its API and is determined by the requirements and capabilities present in each particular situation.

How System2System builds an integration

Connectors

We connect to each system through the interface it offers — an API, a database, a file exchange or a webhook — and handle authentication, rate limits and retries.

Mapping

Fields rarely line up one to one. We map and transform the data so both systems receive it in the shape they expect.

Workflow

We define what triggers an exchange, in which direction data flows and which system takes precedence when the two disagree.

Monitoring

Every exchange is logged. Failures are flagged and can be replayed, so nothing disappears without anyone noticing.

What can actually be exchanged?

That depends on what Salesforce and QlikSense make available through their APIs, on the licences and modules in use, and on the version each system runs. Which records are synchronised, in which direction and how often, is something we determine together before any work starts.

We are happy to look at your specific situation and tell you what is feasible — including when the answer is that it is not.
