Hi,
I've several KML files with paths as LineString placemarks. Is it possible to plot those paths on Qlik Sense Map?
I have the same problem? Did you make any progress with this?
Path?
For a bit of background KML files have several geometries available, see https://developers.google.com/kml/documentation/kmlreference.
One of these is LineString (syntax example below). Unlike Point or Polygon geometries Qlik Sense does not seem to recognise KML files using the LineString geometry.

KML is acceptable file for Maps in Qlik Sense/Qlik view.
If you find it difficult, convert your .KML to .CSV file instead and use it as boundary for your polygon maps.
.SHP files are not accepted format for Qlik.
I see this thread is a few years old.
Is it possible to draw paths (linestring) in the current maps in Qlik Sense? If not, is this part of the road map?
Some info on plotting paths on this other thread:
