Effects of disabling Standard Mode in Qlik Sense

[rajarshi_guin]

Hi All,

We were trying to send mail notification using the Qlik Web Connector. We were able to send mail using the connector. However, we found that if we want to send mails to ad-hoc email IDs using the Qlik Sense script we have to modify the URL generated in Web Connector during running the script. We also found that in order to do that we need to first disable 'Standard Mode' in Qlik Sense. We found that disabling 'Standard Mode' causes a security risk by exposing the file system. However, we would like to know more in details about the effects and risks of disabling 'Standard Mode'.

So, can anyone please let us know in details what are the effects of disabling 'Standard Mode' in Qlik Sense.

thanks and Regards,

Rajarshi Guin

Hi Rajarshi,

don't know if this helps:

Qlik Sense Legacy mode

Description

Disabling standard mode and enabling Legacy mode is not recommended by Qlik. It can create a security risk by exposing the file system. Please use Standard mode and edit Data Connection. Disabling standard mode https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense/3.2/Subsystems/Hub/Content/LoadData/disable-standard-mode.htm Qlik Sense Legacy mode https://community.qlik.com/blogs/qlikviewdesignblog/2015/08/07/qlik-sense-legacy-mode

Hope this helps,

Best regards

In the what's new in Qlik Sense February 2018; we're tlaking about dynamic URL for web connectors:

Maybe it's something like the REST Connector dynamic URL; I mean we can change the url DYNAMICALLY by putting it in a variable and using the

WITH CONNECTION (

URL "....."

)

;

key word.

sthing like this (I call the Web Service each time with a new Date simply by dynamicaly changing the URL of the lib connection without changing the legacy mode...)

Hope this helps
