Mastering Qlik Sense

qHyperCubeDef

qHyperCubeDef is the definition object that is passed on to the Qlik Engine API to create a query for processing. Most visualizations built-in with Qlik Sense are based on a HyperCube definition on a root level, meaning the extension code is built around that.

A fundamental definition of a HyperCube looks as follows:

initialProperties: {     version: 1.0,     qHyperCubeDef: {     qDimensions: [],     qMeasures: [],     qInitialDataFetch: [{         qWidth: 2,         qHeight: 50     }]   } }

By default, most extensions will not have any dimensions or measures defined in their initialProperties to allow the user to achieve the same by adding dimensions and metric via the property panel.

Always add initialProperties to define how many rows/columns are available ...
