Disable Import Excel Files in Qlik Sense

Hi All,

I need advice regarding using Excel in Qlik.
Our Qlik Version is - August 2022 Patch 15

1. is it possible to disable the option Import data from excel ?
We want our users to get data only from databases and not files.
I have checked around for a while and saw this article:
https://community.qlik.com/t5/New-to-Qlik-Sense/Turn-off-CSV-uploads/td-p/1745777
On creation of new app it automatically shows a screen that you can drag and drop excel file and it loads its data,
When I disabled the SR 'File upload connection object' user received error message when he tried to load excel file on that screen. (Attached import screen & the error user receive).
BUT - user can still load excel file using the folder connection and insert the script in-line.. How can I block that option aswell ??

2. Is there a way for me to find out on which apps user is importing data from excel files ?

Any feedback will be much appreciated,
Thank you!
Adam,
