Need To connect to cloud database using qlikview

[anjali0108]

Hi ,

We have to connect to a database that is stored in cloud. We have been asked to connect using Soap Web Services .We are also given some WSDL to connect to the same .

Can anyone suggest how can we establish connection with cloud database using qlikview?

Any suggestions will be of great help ..

Thanks in advance.

Perhaps you can use QVSource to create a connector. There's no standard connector to use soap web services as a data source.

If you prefer to do this without a third party connector you could:

1) Use cURL ... it is a command line tool that is open source, free and downloadable. It is called curl.exe on Windows.

      This can be invoked from a load script by using:

              EXECUTE  c:\bin\curl.exe     http : // some-soap-endpoint   ..... ;

2) Use a VBScript function that uses Microsoft XMLHttpRequest to post a SOAP request.
