Hello All,
Can anyone help em knowing how to use/load shape files in Qliksense for geoMaps?
Do i need to download some QGA connector for this? OR does it works fine without that?
Yes, you need the QGA connector that comes with the standard download and is installed by running the included installation executable. e.g. GeoAnalyticsSetup_April_2018_Patch_1.exe
Note that the first of the instructions in the tutorial says "Open the connector and choose "Simplify"", this is referring to he QGA connector and the operation that can be chosen from a drop down list at the top of the connector interface.
Cheers,
Rod
Okay, I am running licensed feb 2018 version of geo analytics. But could
not find any QGA.
Can I ask where you have looked? Do you know if the installation for the connector was run or have you just imported the extensions? Can I assume Qlik Sense Server is being used?
Hey Rod,
I am pretty new to geomaps. So, I am assuming when I installed licensed
geoanalytics, this QGA connector should have run. Pls correct me if I am
wrong and let me know where can I find QGA connector?
Ok, so assuming you are using Qlik Sense server and setting QGA for that, from the download site you should have downloaded a file something like "GeoAnalyticsForQlikSenseServer-April2018p1.zip" (that's the latest).
When you unzip that file you'll find an exe file, a bunch of zip files for the QGA extensions that you need to install and a "doc" directory. In the doc directory you'll find a "inst_guide_qss.html" that you can open and will give you installation instructions.
Once you have followed those you should be able to access the QGA connector from within an app. So if you open an app and navigate to the Data Load Editor and click the "Create new connection" button, you should now see the "Qlik GeoAnalytics Connector" in your list of available data sources. There is other documentation in the aforementioned "doc" directory called "user_guide -...." that will get you started from there.
Hope that helps.
Cheers,
Rod
