Manage the data connection without the QMC

Hi everybody,

Im regularly deploying a bunch of VM with a Qlik Sense environment. One of the problems I already solved, was to create new certificates automatically. Now the problem is;

I'll like to know, if there is any way to manage the data Connection without the QMC.

I have to introduce the password for every data connection that I'm using. Therefore I tried to use automation software (Selenium) to achieve this task but I'm kind of struggling. This will be: a) slow and b) ill waste some space from my VM's.

Thank you for taking the time to help me.

@Suhr ,

If you are trying to set the exact same password for multiple connections, the QMC may be the easiest way to do that as you can drag the selection and select multiple connections to edit at once.

Otherwise, you can use the QRS API:

or Qlik-CLI:

That should get you started!
