Welcome to our community! 😃

What is qlik and how would it connect to Elasticsearch?

Hi safaeaz; correct me if I'm wrong (I only have worked with QlikSense for a couple of months in the past), but QlikSense is just a "visualization" program that uses external data sources; so; the script that you mentioned is really an ETL (Extract, Load, Transform) in a QlikSense way, could share it? If we can take a look, maybe we can suggest an Elastic Agent integration and a pipeline for the source.

If you are dealing with CSV files, you have a couple of options; use Logstash to perform the same ETL process by monitoring a specific directory; when you add the CSV file (or update), it gets transformed and shipped to Elastic. Another option is using an Elastic pipeline with an Elastic Agent or Beat (Filebeat).
