Override Auth header in OData Connector

E_Langlet — Thu, 05 May 2022 06:24:22 GMT

Hi!

Is it possible to override the Qlik Sense Cloud OData connector so that you e.g. can use a variable as input to the Auth header field?

Something similar to when working with the REST connector. I have tried to add the following code without success:

"WITH CONNECTION(
URL "$(vURL)",
HTTPHEADER "auth_type" "$(vheaderAuthType)",
HTTPHEADER "auth_token" "$(vTOKEN)"
)" ;

Have you received any information or have you been able to make this to actually work?

We are also looking for a way to dynamically pass a token since the token is only valid for 24 hours.

Did you received any information or have a solution for it?

Having the same issue for the token and also want to adjust the base root path (to reuse script code).

I did not unfortunately. I received the message to submit the request to the ideation page, which I have done. Still dead silence there.

We used the REST connector for the extraction of the data. Without this basic functionality the ODATA connector simply isn't useful for most use cases.
