QVSource using the Odata connection - Remote server error (406) Not acceptable

Wed, 25 Nov 2020 16:16:04 GMT

Hi All

I am pretty new to the world of Qlik. And more specifically, to the world of development.

I have an issue using the QVSource Odata connection.

I have installed the connector and created the connection in Qlik Sense which works.

I then proceeded to GetData in the QVSource Web browser.

Some of the tables work perfectly without specifying an accept header and others just don't return any data and the following error persists.

I then specified application/xml as an accept header which didn't work and then application/atom+xml as an accept header and it still would not return any data.

Hope somebody can assist with this one.

Thanks

Carmen

Hi,

Do you have documentation for the OData service which suggests the requests you are making should work (and can you link to the docs here?)?

Which tables work and which don't (and are you referring to tables in the connector or tables in the OData service?)?

Hi Chris

I don't have documentation for the OData service. Can you suggest to me how I can get the documentation?

By tables I mean the OData Resource Path that I specify as a parameter, eg. EN-ARInvoices

They are all tables in the source data. I assume then that it is the OData service?

In the connector web browser I specified the parameters. And for some of the tables as mentioned above

data is returned and for some no data is returned and the 406 error persists.

I don't know what API/service you are using so do not know where the docs would be.

Where did you take the:

EN-ARInvoices

Value from?
