This article contains information on how to deploy Vizlib products to work with Qlik SaaS (Qlik Cloud Services).
TABLE OF CONTENTS
If you haven't worked with SaaS deployments of Qlik Sense before, we've included this video on visualization extensions in Qlik Sense SaaS deployments (including Qlik Sense Business and Qlik SaaS):
Installing Vizlib products in QCS
In order to install extensions in QCS navigate to the Administration page (Figure 1).
Figure 1: Administration
Open the Extensions section and add the Vizlib extensions .zip files:
Note: Due to current limitations, you may need to upload extensions individually.
Figure 2: Add Extensions
Content Security Policies - Configuration
Additional rules need to be added into the Content Security Policy section in order to use the online/SaaS versions of Vizlib in QCS. These are commonly known as CSPs.
Note: For Enterprise offline versions of Vizlib products, this is not needed, since there are no external requests.
Figure 3: Content Security Policy
Navigate to Content Security Policy section and add three security policies with the following hostnames:
- static.vizlib.com -> Vizlib's CDN use for static content (fonts, css, open-source libraries, etc.)
- bouncer.vizlib.com -> Vizlib's Distribution Service (transfer of extension code & licensing)
- collaboration.vizlib.com -> Vizlib Collaboration Service
- templates.vizlib.com -> Vizlib templates

Now you will be able to use Vizlib value-added products in SaaS editions of Qlik Sense.
