Data Catalog
Fixed
Duplicate Records Eliminated in View-Based Downloads
In Data Catalog, an issue occurred when users downloaded data from configured views; the file sometimes contained duplicate rows. This issue happened because the system did not sort the data correctly before exporting. The issue has now been fixed, and the downloaded data is accurate and complete.
Improved LMDF Download Accuracy in Table Columns
In Data Catalog | Table Columns Grid View, an issue occurred when downloading data from a configured view. The downloaded file did not include the expected information as follows:
- Columns for Classification and Data Quality Score were missing from the downloaded file.
- Arabic text appeared as question marks in the downloaded sheet.
- After switching the interface to English, column headers in the downloaded file also appeared as question marks.
- Only the first five rows were downloaded in both Arabic and English modes.
- Data downloaded in Arabic mode displayed content in English instead of Arabic.
These issues have been resolved, and LMDF downloads now include complete row counts, accurate classification values, and proper Arabic text rendering.
Load Metadata from Files
Fixed
Improved Table Columns Metadata Upload Process
In Load Metadata from Files, an issue occurred where metadata uploads from the Table Column template resulted in Null and Failed entries in job logs has been resolved. The upload process has been corrected to allow successful metadata import through the Load Metadata from Files option.
Connectors
Fixed
Improved Dell Boomi Connector Lineage Accuracy and Loop Prevention
In the Dell Boomi connector, an issue was reported where some components, such as decision branch properties, were missing from the patient extraction process. Additionally, the variable was incorrectly mapped to multiple components. A cyclic lineage (infinite loop) occurred in the DXPX process due to a reference to the source file, leading to an endless cycle.
The lineage validation and build process for the Dell Boomi connector has been corrected to address missing components, fix incorrect mappings, and prevent cyclic lineage loops.

Business Glossary
Fixed
Domain Deletion Completes Without Errors
In Security | Domains, an issue that caused a null pointer exception when deleting a domain has been resolved. The deletion process failed instead of completing successfully. This issue was fixed by correcting the domain-deletion logic, which now allows domains to be deleted without errors.
Data Quality
Fixed
Correct Rule Purpose Rendering in Data Quality Notifications
In Data Quality Notifications, an issue in which the Rule Purpose text appeared as raw HTML instead of plain text in email and application notifications has been fixed. This issue occurred with custom SQL rules when Rule Purpose content was manually entered or copied, causing readability issues. The notification rendering logic was updated to display the Rule Purpose content correctly as plain text across all notifications.
Lineage
Fixed
Complete Lineage Extraction for Dell Boomi Stored Procedures
In Dell Boomi | Lineage, an issue was identified in which stored procedures were not extracted for a single connector action component. In addition, Lineage displayed only one table when a query joined two tables. The lineage extraction logic was updated to use stored procedures and to display all tables involved in joined queries correctly.
Upstream Lineage Corrected for Qlik Sense Dashboards
In Qlik Sense Lineage, an issue in which the upstream lineage for Qlik Sense dashboards showed incorrect table mappings has been resolved. Unrelated tables were incorrectly linked in the upstream lineage, leading to inaccurate relationships between fact and dimension tables. The lineage logic was corrected to ensure only valid and relevant table relationships are displayed. This fix improves the accuracy of upstream lineage by removing incorrect and unrelated mappings.
Accurate Lineage Mapping for Qlik Sense Dimensions and Measures
In the Qlik Sense Connector, an issue that prevented lineage from being generated correctly for some Dimensions and Measures in reports has been fixed. The problem occurred because the alias names used in formulas did not match the actual source column names. This issue caused the system to create temporary upstream objects instead of linking to the correct data sources, resulting in incomplete or incorrect lineage mapping. The fix improves the lineage logic to recognize and map alias names to their original source columns. This fix ensures accurate upstream lineage without creating temporary objects.
Advanced Tools - Build Auto Lineage
Fixed
Improved Snowflake Auto Lineage Parsing Accuracy
In Build Auto Lineage for Snowflake Connector, an issue was identified in which auto lineage generation produced temporary lineage for several queries and marked a few queries as parse failures. The failures were caused by parsing anomalies related to specific SQL keywords and syntax. The lineage parsing logic was reviewed and improved to better handle Snowflake-specific SQL patterns. Queries with correctable syntax were successfully parsed, and overall lineage-generation accuracy improved.
Improved SAP HANA View Parse Reliability
In SAP HANA Connector, an issue was reported in which view definitions were marked as parse-failed during metadata processing. Approximately 300 views failed to parse on the client environment, even though most of the same artifacts parsed successfully in other environments.
The parsing logic was reviewed and validated to handle environment-specific differences and improve consistency. This update reduces unexpected parse failures and improves the reliability of view parsing and lineage validation.
Connectors
New & Improved
Enabled Microsoft Fabric Warehouse Connectivity via SQL Server Connector
In Connectors, support has been added to connect to Microsoft Fabric Warehouses using the SQL Server connector through the SQL Analytics Endpoint. Previously, customers migrating from SQL Server to Microsoft Fabric could not directly extract metadata or run Data Quality Rules against Fabric Warehouses. This enhancement allows successful connection using the Fabric warehouse endpoint, enables metadata extraction, and supports execution of SQL-based Data Quality Rules on Fabric Warehouse objects.
Accurate Capture of Column Aliases in Qlik Sense Reports
In Qlik Sense Connection, an issue where report columns defined with AS alias syntax were not captured correctly has been resolved. Column aliases, such as CITY_CD_ASSIGN AS %CITY_ID%, are now stored using the alias name as the column name. The fix also ensures accurate metadata validation and correct lineage construction.
Hotfix Release6.3.5.4
This release introduces fixes in the Data Catalog, Lineage, Chrome Extension, Connectors, Data Quality, and Advanced Jobs modules. It improves system performance, stability, and user experience by addressing delays, data inconsistencies, display issues, and reporting gaps.

Data Catalog
Fixed
Column Term Removal Issue
In the Data Catalog, an issue occurred where the removal of term associations from columns exceeded the expected processing time. The issue has been resolved by improving the term handling logic, and now term associations are removed within the expected time.
Lineage
Fixed
Duplicate Data Flows in Package Associations
In the Lineage module, an issue occurred where duplicate data flow entries appeared in package associations after a rebuild for the SSIS connector. The issue occurred because existing records were not updated correctly, and older entries were retained during the rebuild process. The issue has been resolved by ensuring existing records are properly refreshed, and now associations display only the correct and current data flows.
Chrome Extension
Fixed
Missing Certification Indicator for Reports
In the Chrome Extension, an issue occurred where the certification indicator was not displayed on certified reports when viewed in the reporting platform. The issue has been resolved by improving certification status handling, and now the certification indicator appears as expected on certified reports.
Connector
Fixed
Qlik Sense | Inconsistent Crawling Across Streams
In the Qlik Sense (On-prem) Connector, an issue occurred where scheduled crawling did not complete consistently across multiple data streams and prevented related processes from proceeding. The issue has been resolved through enhancements to the crawling process, and now crawling runs complete successfully with stable downstream processing.
Power BI | Authorization Failure During Connector Validation
In the Power BI Connector, an issue occurred where connector validation failed with an authorization error even when valid credentials and access were provided. The issue has been resolved through improvements in validation handling, and now connector validation completes successfully in supported environments.
Advanced Job
Fixed
Improved Reporting for Qlik Sense Crawling Details
In the Advanced Job module, an issue occurred where the reporting for Qlik Sense crawling activity did not include complete crawling details.

Business Glossary
Fixed
Business Glossary Term Deletion Issue Resolved
In Business Glossary, an issue where deleting a business term failed after it was associated with a schema has been resolved. An unexpected error occurred during the deletion process when a term had an existing schema association. The deletion logic was updated to handle schema-linked terms, allowing for successful removal without errors.
Domain Deletion Completes Without Errors
In Security | Domains, an issue that caused a null pointer exception when deleting a domain has been resolved. The deletion process failed instead of completing successfully. This issue was fixed by correcting the domain-deletion logic, which now allows domains to be deleted without errors.
Consistent Bulk Tag Removal for Glossary Terms
In Business Glossary, an issue where the bulk removal of tags from terms resulted in partial job success has been resolved. The logic for bulk updates has been adjusted to ensure tags are consistently removed from all selected terms, allowing jobs to complete successfully.
Connectors
New & Improved
Enabled Microsoft Fabric Warehouse Connectivity via SQL Server Connector
In Connectors, support has been added to connect to Microsoft Fabric Warehouses using the SQL Server connector through the SQL Analytics Endpoint. Previously, customers migrating from SQL Server to Microsoft Fabric could not directly extract metadata or run Data Quality Rules against Fabric Warehouses. This enhancement enables successful connection to the Fabric warehouse endpoint, supports metadata extraction, and allows execution of SQL-based Data Quality Rules on Fabric Warehouse objects.
Enhanced DB2 AS400 Table Crawling Reliability
In DB2 Connector, an issue where crawling significant DB2 AS400 sources completed with a partial success status has been resolved. The crawl failed due to insufficient memory when processing a very high number of tables, causing the job to stop with a Java heap space error. The crawl process was optimized to handle large schemas better, preventing memory exhaustion and enabling successful table crawling.
Resolved Virtual Proxy Validation Issue in Qlik App Crawling
In the Qlik Sense Connector, an issue has been identified where apps hosted on specific nodes fail to crawl when virtual proxy validation is enabled. The crawling process returned an “app not found” error for one node in a multi-node setup, even though other nodes completed successfully using node-specific virtual proxy prefixes. This issue was addressed by validating and standardizing the handling of the virtual proxy prefix across nodes in the crawling logic. Once the remaining node’s proxy mapping is confirmed, the updated logic will enable consistent app crawling across all nodes in the Qlik environment.
Hotfix Release6.3.5.6

User Management
New & Improved
Team Member Visibility Through Reference Links
A new enhancement simplifies how users access team details when a team is referenced in business or technical descriptions. Previously, clicking a team reference redirected users to the Teams module, which restricted visibility for many users, especially those with Viewer licenses who lacked permission to open the Teams page.
With the update, selecting a team reference now opens a shutter displaying the team’s name, description, a searchable list of all members with email addresses, the total number of members, and an option to copy all visible email IDs. This improvement enables users to view essential team information directly from their current page, without navigating away or requiring elevated permissions.
Connectors
Fixed
Enhanced Lineage for ADF Pipelines
In the Azure Data Factory (ADF) connector, an issue occurred where lineage for some pipelines and dataflows was missing or only partially generated. In a few cases, pipelines appeared successful despite incomplete lineage. This issue has been fixed. Lineage for ADF pipelines is now generated correctly, and the system clearly indicates when lineage cannot be built.
Connector Validation Failing with 401 Unauthorized Error
For the Power BI on-premises connector, an issue occurred where validation failed with an HTTP 401 Unauthorized error, even when the correct connection details, username, and password were provided. This caused the connector to fail during validation in environments using Basic authentication. This issue has been fixed. The connector now validates successfully when correct credentials are provided, ensuring reliable authentication for environments that do not use Windows authentication.
Lineage Gap for SAP BO Universe Aliases
For SAP Business Objects (BO) Universes, an issue occurred where lineage was not built correctly when reports used table aliases. Lineage stopped at the alias level and did not connect to the actual data warehouse tables, resulting in incomplete lineage for affected reports. This issue has been fixed. Lineage now correctly resolves aliases and connects them to their corresponding data warehouse tables.
Source Descriptions Not Displaying Arabic Characters Correctly
For the SQL Server connector, an issue occurred where source descriptions written in Arabic were not displayed correctly after crawling. Instead of showing the actual Arabic text, the application displayed “??” in the source description field. This issue has been fixed. Source descriptions containing Arabic and other non-English characters now display correctly in the application. This improvement ensures accurate representation of multilingual metadata and supports better usability for international users.
Report Preview and Workspace Visibility Issues
For the Power BI connector, an issue occurred where some reports could not be previewed, and certain report groups or new workspaces were not visible for crawling or profiling. This happened even though the required permissions were set correctly in the Power BI source. This issue has been fixed. Reports and workspaces are now correctly available for preview and crawling, including scenarios where the report’s dataset is located in a different workspace.
App Metadata Export Issues in Multi-Node Environments
For the Qlik Sense connector, an issue occurred in multi-node environments where app metadata export succeeded for some nodes but failed for others with an “app not found” error when virtual proxy prefixes were used. This issue has been fixed. The connector now correctly handles virtual proxy prefixes and redirection, enabling the successful export of app metadata from all nodes. This improvement ensures consistent crawling across multi-node Qlik Sense environments.
