Deprecated Connectors
When upgrading connectors to the latest APIs, unfortunately the changes can be so extensive that we are unable to modify the existing connector. When this happens we will create a new version of the connector and put the existing one into a ‘Deprecated’ state. This means that at some point in the future it will no longer be available and after entering the deprecated status, it will no longer be updated. The date is normally determined by the underlying API which will often have its own expiry date, after which the connector using it will no longer work.
You can see connectors affected under the Deprecated tab in Qlik Web Connectors. One connector is noted as deprecated in this release, Qlik RegEx Connector.
One connector is removed in this release, after being noted as deprecated since previous release:
- AYLIEN Text Analysis API (deprecated on October 1st 2022).
Known issues and limitations
IP v6 addresses are not supported when you enter an IP v6 address for the purpose of white listing.
Load Balancing is not supported.
