Hello,

Has anayone being able to use "CUSTOM CONNECT TO [Provider=QvRestConnector.exe" in QLIK Sense Desktop (12.36.1 2018)? Anyone has a simple working example that can be shared?

I updated the application settings to enable custom connect (from standard to legacy), but I cannot get rid of the error:

The following error occurred:

QVX_UNEXPECTED_END_OF_DATA: The connection format is obsolete. Please edit your connection object and save it.

CUSTOM CONNECT TO [Provider=QvRestConnector.exe;timeout=30;method=POST;];
let vBody = '"{""login"":""Me"",""password"":""Blabla""}"';

RestConnectorMasterTable:
SQL SELECT
"access_token"
FROM JSON (wrap on) "root" QDL
WITH CONNECTION (
Url "https://my_url/login",
BODY $(vBody),
HTTPHEADER "Content-Type" "application/json"
);

Same issue withbasic Google API call:
