Notification Web Connector not working

vishalgoyal18 — Mon, 16 Apr 2018 06:21:29 GMT

I have downloaded the latest WebConnectors for Qliksense and trying to configure and test the Notification Connector to send mail. I am using gmail for SMTP and settings in gmail are correct.

I keep getting below error on Data Preview

Error connecting to Smtp server (The server has closed the connection.)

Hey guys,

try this:

Connect to smtp.gmail.com on port 465, if you're using SSL. (Connect on port 587 if you're using TLS.) Sign in with a Google username and password for authentication to connect with SSL or TLS.

Best regards.

Hi Vishal,

Did you get this working?

I have just put together a blog post, and example application, which shows how Qlik Web Connectors can be used to send data via GMail:

Hopefully this will help you out.

Hi Steve - No. It did not work earlier. Let me check this URL you shared and try.

Thanks, Vishal.

Take a look at the blog post I shared above. This has all the settings you need and a link to download an app that works with GMail.

From the original image I can see that the SSL mode is set wrong, it should be Implicit.

let vUseSSL = 'True';

let vSSLMode = 'Implicit';

let vPort = '465';

Hi to all and sorry for my English
@stevedark, I looked at your blog post. And it seems to me that I set the necessary settings for the SMTP Connector.
But still, I get an error (see Screenshot_1).

Therefore, I have a question: what settings (antivirus, security settings in the browser, something wrong with certificates, etc.) can still / should be changed if such an error occurs. Maybe you know?

Hi,

Did you download the example QVF that is with the blog post here:

https://www.quickintelligence.co.uk/send-data-from-qlik-load-script/

This app has all the settings in for GMail.

Your settings look correct. The account I use are a GSuite account, rather than a standard GMail account, which might have a bearing.

Your thoughts about security settings are worth exploring, particularly firewalls blocking ports. Is QWC installed locally or on a server? If the latter it will be the security settings on the server, not your machine, that you will need to look at.

The error message you see will be coming back from Google, rather than QWC. Suggest searching elsewhere on-line for a solution, as you are more likely to find this in a non-Qlik related forum.

Hope that helps. Post back and let us know how you get on.

Cheers,
Steve

Yes, I downloaded your application.
When I set my parameters (email from, recipient email, password) I still get an error: Internal Server Error
QWC installed locally.
Strange that a similar error occurs when I try to use office365 account =(

Anyway, thanks for answers
