Data stories are a way to cohesively bring together insights and data that you’ve collected together in your Qlik Sense app. Using Data Stories, you can stitch data points into a compelling narrative to present to an audience. This is an essential tool for Qlik Sense users looking to present their data discoveries to decision makers and top management.
