Accessing a SharePoint list that resides on a Personal SharePoint OneDrive

Does anyone have an example if its possible or how within Qlik SaaS cloud i can create a successful connection to a personal list in SharePoint.

the SharePoint Meta connector i can authenticate with the base URL no issue (https://somecompany-my.sharepoint.com) , but getting to the list is challenging.

below is the example URL:

https://somecompany-my.sharepoint.com/personal/someuser_com/Lists/listname.aspx

 

any advise would be appreciated , i have already swapped out the list name for the ID

recently had the same issue.
The PERSONAL area of SharePoint, has a different URL than the regular site.
SO --- you have to have a separate metadata connection using that different base url

not a real example: https://yourstuff-my.sharepoint.com/personal/your_profile_name_stuff


base url: https://yourstuff-my.sharepoint.com

subsite path for made up example personal stuff: /personal/your_profile_name_stuff

then, from there - you should be able to find your list, unless you have some setting preventing it from working.


if you see some lists but not others on that same subsite, do a stare and compare of various settings and permissions, for working/visible one vs the one you cant see,  until you find why one shows up and the other does not, in the list of lists
