QlikView Administration

[OlivP]

Hello,

My connections to ODBC connections and API's connections "disappeared" in Qlik Sense (Nov 2018 version), in the load editor view. I can't use it anymore (the database is up and running and credentials are OK).

They are still visible  in QMC/Data Connections..

In debug mode, the connection fails (probably because the connection is "unknown"?).

If I make a copy of the data connection, it works for a short time, and it disappears again.

I thought it was sort of a cache problem, but I can't find anything to clear it for ODBC connectors.

Does someone has an idea? Or already had this issue?

Thanks guys for your precious help!

Check for custom security rules that could make the data connections invisible?

Thanks for your answer!

The problem came from the "DataConnection" Security rule in the QMC.

The only possibility I had was to create a database, not seeing all of them; so we add the "Read" rights.

Now I am able to see the data connections!
