Overview
The Qlik Sense Timeline Chart is a chart extension for the use in Qlik Sense Desktop or Server. It is versatile chart that allows you to depict how multiple artifacts, be they projects or resources, are active/used over time in relation to each other.
Examples:
- You are managing a software project and want to illustrate who is doing what and when
- You are organising a conference and need to schedule meeting rooms
- You are running marketing campaigns and would like a scheduling overview
The Qlik Sense Timeline Chart leverages the Google Chart API.

- Dim 1 (required): Main dimension and row label
- Dim 2 (optional): Bar label
- Dim 3 (required): start date, format YYYY-MM-DD (ISO)
- Dim 4 (required): end date, format YYYY-MM-DD (ISO)
You currently need to ensure that all start and end dates exist. Dates will need to be converted to YYYY-MM-DD as required by the Google Chart API.

Additional parameters can be set to change the appearance of the chart:
