Hi!,

I'm working on an app that use Qlikview Management API. I folowed the steps in this post QlikView Management API - #1 Setting up a Visual Studio project

But when I've compiled the app I have the following error:

Error

The type 'System.Configuration.ConfigurationElement' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced. You must add a reference to assembly 'System.Configuration, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'.

C:\Qlikview\API QV - Leandro\Test\Trigger_1_cadena_2\Trigger_1_cadena_2\ServiceSupport\ServiceKeyBehaviorExtensionElement.cs

Trigger_1_cadena_2

I have no idea what I have to do, any help?

Are you using
