Qlik Talend Cloud – Data Integration improvements

Share this message

Customers who are using Qlik Data Gateway – Data Movement need to upgrade to 2025.11.40 or later to benefit from these improvements. For upgrade instructions and a list of resolved issues, see Upgrading the Data Movement gateway installation.

To align with Databricks, the driver for working with the Databricks connector has been rebranded.

To prevent tasks from failing, customers working with the Databricks connector must upgrade their driver. You can do this automatically using the driver setup utility (recommended) or manually. For instructions, see Driver setup. If you choose to install the driver manually, make sure to edit the odbcinst.ini file according to the instructions.

This version introduces support for the following driver versions:

  • Snowflake: Snowflake ODBC driver 3.15.0 (64-bit)

  • Google BigQuery: Simba ODBC driver version 3.1.6.1026

From this version, the following data types will be mapped to the Databricks native VARIANT data type:

  • STRING

  • WSTRING

  • NCLOB

  • CLOB

Requires Databricks Runtime 15.4 or later
