Connect Salesforce and QlikView

Connecting Salesforce and QlikView could allow a company to transfer customer and sales data from Salesforce into QlikView for advanced reporting and analysis. This integration could support more informed decision-making by providing updated business insights based on CRM data within QlikView’s analytics environment.

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

Why connect Salesforce and QlikView?

A company using both Salesforce and QlikView could benefit from connecting the two systems to support better decision-making and operational efficiency. By enabling data exchange between Salesforce, a widely known customer relationship management platform, and QlikView, a well-established data analytics and business intelligence solution, the company could reduce the need for manual data transfers and minimize the risk of discrepancies between platforms. Without such a connection, staff may be required to enter the same information in both systems, increasing the risk of errors, duplication, and wasted effort. Over time, this can lead to records diverging between the two platforms, with one system holding outdated or incomplete information. As a result, reports or analyses based on QlikView could be built on stale or inaccurate data, and business decisions made on this basis may be flawed. The types of data that could be exchanged include sales figures, customer records, pipeline updates, and activity logs, provided these are supported by both systems. Ultimately, what data can be exchanged and how this is achieved depends on the specific interfaces and APIs offered by Salesforce and QlikView, and must be determined on a case-by-case basis.

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 QlikView 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.
