Native JSON Support for Qlik Sense

Qlik Sense now supports direct native loading and parsing of JSON data files without the REST connector, enabling easier, more flexible, and complex JSON data handling for use cases including IoT data ingestion, modern web applications, and more.

Key capabilities include:

• Direct JSON file loading: Supports loading .json files directly into Qlik Sense without additional connectors, and interrogation of JSON within a single field, for example out of a database.

• Wildcard and multi-file loading: Use wildcard loading to combine multiple JSON files, even if file structures differ.

• Dynamic model creation: Qlik Sense will dynamically model and accommodate all data found across source files.

• Field selection options: Load specific fields or all fields from JSON arrays with field selection parameters.

• Large file support: Enables loading of large, complex JSON files.

• Enhanced data load wizard: Improved user interface for JSON loading with wizard-driven steps to simplify setup.

• Catalog profiling support: JSON files are now supported in Qlik Cloud datafiles, and in the Qlik Cloud catalog for data profiling and management.

New Direct Access gateway version

Direct Access gateway 1.6.9 introduces new capabilities and resolves several issues. To benefit from the enhancements and resolved issues, customers are encouraged to upgrade at the earliest opportunity. For upgrade instructions and a list of resolved issues, see Upgrading the Direct Access gateway installation

• Process isolation is now turned on by default

  In previous versions, process isolation mode was turned off by default. From Direct Access gateway 1.6.9, it will be turned on by default, but only with a clean installation. If you are upgrading, your existing process isolation configuration will be preserved (off or on, depending on what it was before the upgrade).

  To learn more about process isolation, see Mitigating connector crashes during reload

• Removed configuration.properties file

  To prevent customers mistakenly modifying the wrong configuration.properties file, the configuration.properties template file has been removed from the Direct Access gateway installation folder. Now, there will be only one configuration.properties file, located in C:\ProgramData\Qlik\Gateway.
