Database Connection

Is there a way that I can create a alias for a connection?

 

For example SQL Connection

On my Dev box the connection would resolve to box 192.0.0.1

On my Prod box the connection would resolve to box 192.0.0.2

 

And if I need to update the ip address on any box, I can just update it at the alias and not each and every application.

 

thanks for your help.

Create different connections for different boxes like Dev, PROD if that case. Because, Qlik connections can't understand which box you are connecting until unless your driver is valid.

The connection can be in text file and you can use include syntax.
All app can refer to txt file. You need to change ip only at text file
