For October, November & December 2025, Connector Factory has released more connectors and enhancements for data integration, data analytics and application automation.
Qlik Analytics
New version of Direct Access gatewa
The Qlik Data Gateway – Direct Access allows Qlik Sense SaaS applications to securely access behind the firewall data, over a strictly outbound, encrypted, and mutually authenticated connection.
The Direct Access Gateway versions 1.7.8 and 1.7.9 were recently released, which, in addition to bug fixes, introduced the following enhancements:
- Support for the updated Databricks OAuth authentication options (mentioned in next section)
- Override the default starting port set by process isolation
- Support for the Application Default Credentials OAuth mechanism with Google BigQuery
- Support for metadata commands with process isolation
- Support for Brazil (br) and France (fr) regions
- New metrics collector offers basic logging and monitoring of resource utilization by Direct Access gateway, connectors, and the Operating System.
More authentication options for Databricks connector
Two additional authentication mechanisms are now available with the Databricks connector: Databricks OAuth Service Principal and Databricks OAuth User Account. In addition, authentication with Personal Access Token is now an explicit option and basic authentication (with username) is no longer available as it is no longer supported by Databricks.
New Connector: SAP OData
SAP has implemented restrictions on their customers on which technologies that can be used to source and extract data from SAP applications. While Qlik will continue to support all existing source endpoints, we have introduced an “SAP compliant” endpoint for customers. This new SAP OData source connector will use a secure web service connection to extract data from SAP applications.
API to enable and disable access to data sources
Qlik Cloud tenant administrators will now be able to update the access to a data source by enabling or disabling the related connectors. Disabling a connector will not only prevent access to the data source but will also hide it within the Qlik Cloud user interface (ex. Analytics activity center, Data manager, and Data load editor). This capability is also available in Qlik Cloud Government and Qlik Cloud Government – DoD.
Qlik Automate (Formerly Qlik Application Automation)
Updated Connectors
- Qlik Cloud Services and Qlik Platform Operations
- New automation connection blocks.
- Dedicated blocks for the changes-store API.
- Microsoft Outlook: Send emails with attachments. This blog describes how you can migrate automations from the Mail connector to this connector.
- Qlik Reporting: Generate HMTL reports.
- Qlik Talend Data Integration: New ”List Runtime Dataset States” block
Qlik Talend
New Qlik Talend Cloud Connectors
Qlik continues to expand the connectivity of Qlik Talend Cloud with new connectors for formkeep and zoom. Being able to quickly use these two applications as a data source helps companies eliminate the lengthy development time associated with custom connectors.
