Deployments

Deployments let you promote a Qlik Sense app or a Power BI report to a target environment directly from the Soterre Extension — using Soterre Deployment Plans for Qlik or item-level selection for Power BI — and review the full deployment history for the artifact.

INFO

The Deployments tab appears in the Soterre Extension popup when the current page is a Qlik Sense app or a Power BI report.

TIP

Make sure Soterre is configured in Options > Integrations and that your app/report is versioned in Soterre. Deployments in Soterre Extensions require Soterre v3.2.18 or later.

Deployment history

Open the Deployments tab to land on the History view. It lists every deployment for the current artifact — both those started from the Soterre Extension and those made in the Soterre UI:

• Origin — where the deployment was triggered (Soterre Extension or Soterre UI).
• Result — the outcome of the deployment.
• Target — the environment the artifact was deployed to.
• User(s) — who ran the deployment.
• Date — when it happened.

Use the Search history field to filter the list. Press Deploy Now to start a new deployment.

INFO

If Soterre can't be reached, the tab shows a warning and falls back to locally-tracked deployments only — deployments made in the Soterre UI may be missing until the connection is restored.

Deployment history for the current artifact

Deploy a Qlik Sense app

Open Deploy Now

On a Qlik Sense app, open the Deployments tab and press Deploy Now.

Choose a Deployment Plan

Select a Deployment Plan from the dropdown. Plans are defined in Soterre and determine the target environment and deployment behavior.

Optionally add a Comment describing the reason for this deployment.

Qlik: select a Deployment Plan and add an optional comment

Deploy and track progress

Press Deploy. The extension runs an eligibility check and starts the deployment; any issue is reported inline. While the job runs, a progress panel shows the job ID, status, and date, and updates until the deployment reaches a terminal state.

When it finishes, the new deployment appears in the History view.

Deploy a Power BI report

Open Deploy Now

On a Power BI report, open the Deployments tab and press Deploy Now.

Choose items to deploy

The current report is added as the first item automatically. Press Add item to open the workspace browser, pick a Workspace, and select additional Semantic models and Reports to include. Use the filter to find items quickly.

Items deploy in order — drag to reorder them when the sequence matters (for example, deploy a semantic model before the report that depends on it).

Set the target and options

Configure the deployment:

• Target — the destination tenant/environment.
• Location (workspace) — the target workspace within that environment.
• Semantic model refresh — Do not refresh semantic models or Refresh after deployment completes.
• Soterre tag (optional) — tag the deployed version in Soterre.
• Comment (optional) — the reason for this deployment.

Power BI: set the target, workspace, refresh mode, tag, and comment

Deploy and track progress

Press Deploy. A progress panel shows each job's ID, status, and date until the deployment completes. The result then appears in the History view.
