Shared Persistence

Since the Engine loads connectors (and DSNs) from local resources, it is important to install the GeoAnalytics connector to all nodes with an Engine service active or the GeoAnalytics Connector may not function properly.

Hi @bps Just let me know

Can we work with geo-analytics charts without internet access

ashwin_r · ‎2018-03-22

Hi @Patric Nordström

From where will i get the local maps for offline usage

Thanks,

Ashwin

Patric_Nordstrom · ‎2018-03-22

Hi Ashwin,

Yes, many customers do.

To be completely on premise the QGA Enterprise Server is needed.

Thanks,

Patric

Ok

Thanks Patric.

Thanks,

Hi Patric,

Who needs to have the URL access? the Qlik Sense server or the clients endpoint or both?

Thanks

Avishay

Patric_Nordstrom · ‎2018-03-27

To the QGA Server?

QGA extensions: the client. Extensions access the map server directly.

QGA connector, the QV/QS server. The connector runs on the QV/QS server and accesses the map server.

Thanks,

Patric

Hi Patric,

One of our customer has a proxy server for internet access. They want to add urls for QGA.

Can you share with us these URL ?

I guess the following are not working anymore or we can not get access.

https://maps.qlikcloud.com

https://ga.qlikcloud.com

https://route.qlikcloud.com

https://geocode.qlikcloud.com

Patric_Nordstrom · ‎2018-05-16

Hi,

The urls are correct.

Direct browser call to root page won't return anything in the browser.

To test connection you can use the following (all should return 'ok'):

https://maps.qlikcloud.com/ravegeo/status

https://ga.qlikcloud.com/ravegeo/status

https://geocode.qlikcloud.com/ravegeo/status

Proxies can be difficult, se this page for hints:

Hi Patric,

I am trying to configure GA base to work on a server that does no have access to the internet. I try to use the Map visualization i am getting an invalid key error. I am assuming this is because we do not have internet connectivity. I am able to set up connectivity to specific IP addesses/ports. Can you confirm what URLs i need to establish connectivity with to enable GA base and what the IP/Ports required are? Alternatively, is it possible to reference the maps locally with base?

Thanks!

Nate

GA Base won't work without internet, it connects to Qlik cloud map servers, check that https://maps.qlikcloud.com/ravegeo/status port 443 returns ok (that is url and port neded. GA Enterprise includes the QGA Server which can operate without internet.

For all urls and ports see this doc (IP ranges are not fixed), see the table in the end of the article: ^^^-

The native mapchart will start without internet but without background maps and name lookup, any stored geometries will show. A native map chart can connect to a local QGA server, see manual how to:
