Qlik Web Connector

 Question: How to load multiple excel files from SharePoint to Qlik Sense using Qlik Web Connector?

I have a module Sales in SharePoint.  It has 10 excel files. Now in order to create connection string for these 10  files in Qlik Sense what I am currently doing is 

From the ListFiles I get all 10 files with their unique ids and name. And now I am creating a connection string for each unique Id which generates a different Url for qlik sense one by one..

I have modules in SharePoint which are as big as 100 files or even more. I want that instead of wasting so many man hours on creating connection string for each file individually..  How can I load multiple excel files from SharePoint to Qlik Sense in one go?????

Hi @ritvik4BI 

Have a look at the WITH CONNECTION statement. This allows you to inject parts of the URL with variables.
