QSDA Not Working After Qlik Sense Upgrade(May 2025)

[Ayesha8]

Hi everyone,
After upgrading our Qlik Sense environment, we are no longer able to use Qlik Sense Document Analyzer (QSDA). It was working fine before the upgrade, but now it fails to connect.We see error: Bad request
Has anyone else encountered this issue post-upgrade?
Is there a known workaround or fix from the community?

Thanks in advance!

Hi ! @Ayesha8 

It happend with me too.. QSDA is free, but no long supported

In my case, I tested changing direct data connection string into QMC

And It works!

Bye.

Hi - what specifically did you change in the string?  I have tried a nubmer of combinations and nothing is working.

The complete string is

CUSTOM CONNECT TO "provider=QsAppMetadataConnector.exe;server=qlik.mydomain.local/win;environment=Enterprise;appid=46c32762-ca97-486e-978d-3fed201a3428;appname=MyApp;"

Replace 46c32762-ca97-486e-978d-3fed201a3428 with your App ID

Replace MyApp with your App Name 

Replace qlik.mydomain.local/win with your server address ( remmember to use virtual proxy )

Remmember to fill user id and password

Bye
