Dropbox connector for Qlik Sense Business

[CDM]

Hello,

Is it me, or the Dropbox connector is missing in Qlik Sense Business?

Thanks for your support

So I got it to work

I had to use the 'Copy Dropbox Link' for the file in the dropbox folder on my computer

For some reason using the cloud didn't work (as it did before as I never had the files on my desktop)

So thanks to Steve for this solution

Great news! Thanks for updating back to the forum.

Let's hope they fix the connector soon (I have a client with 150+ files) as the work around is only helpful if you can copy a link for each file easily.

Hi @stevedark  and @robert99 . This is going to be a busy section over the next few months! 

Will this solution also be able to work with QVDs as well? 

Thanks.

I've not tried, but I see no reason why it would not work.

Interesting. I stored the same data as in the QVD, to a piped delimited file. I does not seem to be able to 'translate' the QVD but the piped delimited file no problem.

Thanks for this solution. I had to use csv's for now, but it is an very good option for now.

Hi @stevedark and @robert99 . 

I used your solution for testing and it worked great. I tried reloading the App this morning and received a 'redirect not allowed' error. Also tried with a new connection and got the same error. I finally got Business to buy-in but they wanna see current data in a demo. Are you able to see if your solutions still reloads. I still have 19 days of the trial left so that should not be an issue. 

Thank you very much.

Hi Robert, 

Thanks for checking. I can't believe it. What is really annoying is that I just managed to sell this idea to Business. Now it looks like something has changed or disabled. 

I am starting so wonder why this is called Qlik Sense 'Business'?

Contact support. They are usually quick at getting back

The other option to allow the demo is to update the file. Although I have had issues uploading all but the smallest files
