Error when trying to load data from a web file

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to call a specific URL at the script side in QlikView, but when I enter the URL and click next, I get the below message. Anybody has an idea what does this mean or how can I correct it to get my data into QlikView from that site?

Thank you.

Probably the URL you are using have too many redirect.

A redirect is when a http request gets a 'page is moved' reply so that another request to the modified url needs to be performed.

Can you use only the final URL ? Is a public url ? Can you share it ?

Hi Michele,

Thanks for your response. I am sorry can't share the URL. Managed to solved the issue by placing the data source in new location and used that new URL in the script and it worked.

Thank you.
