Error while create a new connection (office 365 Sharepoint Metadata)

Hi I'm trying to create a connection from Qlik Sense to access the Sharepoint URL. When I tried to create I'm facing the issue, 

Status: Awaiting authentication...
Error retrieving the URL to authenticate: ENCRYPTION_KEY_MISSING - you must manually set an encryption key before creating new connections.
 
I checked this error and tried to run the below command ? 
 
cd C:\Program Files\Common Files\Qlik\Custom Data\QvWebStorageProviderConnectorPackage
 
(when I tried to run this command in the path C:\Users\QvService\AppData\Roaming\Qlik\QwcKeys\ nothing changes)
 
Even File modified date showing older date. 
 
Please suggest.

I am not a Sharepoint / O365 / Azure admin at my company and therefore have no access to the admin backend of things. There is unfortunately nothing else I can do for you regarding this request.

Hi @steeefan At-last  I found the email is going to AZURE GLOBAL ADMINISTRATOR for approval. I will check with them for the approval request. Once done I will do further steps. If anything I will get back to you. As of now I closed this conversation and marked as done. Thanks for your support.
