Qlik Connection Properties
When you set up a Qlik connection, you must configure the connection properties.
Connection Property | Description |
|---|
Runtime Environment | The name of the run-time environment where you want to run the tasks. |
Template File Path | The directory path to a sample QVX file from where the Secure Agent imports the Qlik metadata. |
Template File Path
When you create a Qlik connection, you can specify the directory that contains QVX files.
When you configure a Data Synchronization task or Mapping Configuration task, the QVX files that are available in the specified directory appears in the target object list. Select a template QVX file to fetch the metadata from that file.
The Secure Agent generates the target object OVX file from the source object based on the data representation in the specified Qlik template file. The path you specify for the template file in the connection properties becomes the default path for the generated target QVX file.
If you do not use the template file to create a target object, you can create a target by using the Create Target option in a Data Synchronization task or Mapping Configuration task. You need to select the source fields that you want in the target QVX file and provide a name for the target object QVX file. The Secure Agent creates a target QVX file in the specified location.
