Help - Issue with Qlik Geo Analytics Connecter - Shape File loading ? @Patric_Nordstrom #QGA

[KiranPaidi]

Using QGA Connector, I’m able to load Shape file from public sites(Ex : https://www2.census.gov/geo/tiger/TIGER2016/CD/tl_2016_us_cd115.zip) but not from internal SharePoint/OneDrive/LAN Share/Local Path.  Getting errors like  ‘HTTP response code:503’  or 'Unable to Parse request or '' . Appreciate any help with this. Thanks in advance.

Thanks Patric. I’ve tried below 5 ways by changing URL but it’s not working. I'm able to download file directly by placing the link in browser.

1. URL : https://officespace.xx-xx.com/s/Shared%20Documents/Dashboard/FileName.zip
2. URL : https://xxxxxxxxxxxx.sharepoint.com/:u:/r/Documents/Dashboard/FileName.zip?csf=1&web=1&e=V2HGnd
3. URL : file:///D:/Source Documents/Dashboard/FileName.zip
4. URL : //xxxxxxxxxx/Source Documents//Dashboard/FileName.zip
5. URL : file:///xxxxxxxxxxxx/Source Documents//Dashboard/FileName.zip

We're using QS Sep2020 P1(qliksenseserver:13.95.4) & QGA

Hi Patric, I see that in other post (https://community.qlik.com/t5/GeoAnalytics/Error-when-trying-to-loading-Esri-shapefiles-in-GeoAnalyt... you mentioned about QGA Plus or QGA Server to access local URL/Files. Do we need to install one of these? If so, do we need a separate license & what versions we need to install? We're using QGA version Sep2020. Sorry incase I'm asking too many questions. 

[Patric_Nordstrom · Accepted solution]

Yes, since the files are on your local drive QGA Plus or a QGA Server is needed. Another option would be to place the file in a dropbox folder with a public url.

QGA Plus is separate install, included in QGA without extra cost.
