Hi and Welcome to Qlik Fix
This video demonstrates how to activate the Qlik GeoAnalytics Connector, GeoAnalytics Plus, and and GeoAnalytics Server.
After installing the GeoAnalytics extensions, the next step is to run the GeoAnalytics connector installation file.
As an example we will run the setup for the Qlik Sense GeoAnalytics connector.
Once the connector is installed the License Activation Tool is automatically run.
Fill in the necessary information including the Serial number which is the 16-digit license key, and the five digit control number.
For this example we will select the Qlik Sense Server Installation.
Notice the Path field will be populated with the legacy Synchronized persistence location. This is no longer applicable to newer Qlik Sense Shared Persistence versions.
The correct share path can be found in QMC under the Service Cluster, Static content root folder configuration.
You can navigate to that location, access the Extensions folder, and copy this path to the License Activation tool's Path field.
Then click on the "Activate/Refresh License" button.
If successful, the LEF information will be displayed and it will indicate that the GeoAnalytics connector License has been updated.
The file license.js will be updated with the license information, and so will the GeoAnalytics connector config file.
Here's another example when licensing the GeoAnalytics connector for QlikView Desktop. Notice the Installation option chosen.
The Path is populated automatically, and the activation succeeds if the QlikView extensions have been installed previously.
The same js and config files stored in the QlikView Desktop extension and connector paths are updated with the license information.
If Qlik GeoAnalytics Plus is installed, the GeoAnalytics License Tool will need to be run again.
The tool can be found under the this path. (C:\Program Files (x86)\QlikView\GeoAnalyticsLicenseTool)
Run the tool and re-license the connector as done previously.
Lastly, when deploying the GeoAnalytics Server, activation is performed via the Web console under the License Administration page.
Scroll down to the Add License section, and paste the full LEF content into the new license field.
If the full LEF content is unknown it can be retrieved via the Support Portal. See the knowledge base article "How to request a control number and LEF" in Qlik Community.
Next, add the control number, and then click Add License.
The Available Licenses will be updated with the new license entitlements.
The file IdevioLicense.lef is also updated with the new LEF information.
