  1. Create a new folder in the following location with your new data source name without any spaces: C:\Program Files\Qlik\Sense\Client\odag_wizard\config\MY_DATA_SOURCE_NAME Step 1a Step 1b

  2. Copy the text files Subs.txt and Trace.txt from the odag_wizard\config\SQL folder and paste them into the folder you just created in Step 1 Step 2a Step 2b

  3. Edit the text files in a text editor. The Subs.txt needs to be edited to work with the syntax of your new data source. The Trace.txt contains only instructions for the user on how they should proceed when creating the ODAG template app. It is recommended here to insert a short example of how the script should look like. Step 3a Step 3b

  4. Edit the C:\Program Files\Qlik\Sense\Client\odag_wizard\config\config.json file to include your new data source. Ensure you use the same name as the folder you created in Step 1! Step 4a Step 4b

  5. Restart your Qlik Sense server or simply restart all Qlik Sense services. Once everything is running again navigate to the ODAG Wizard by entering the link https://<YOUR_QLIK_SENSE_SERVER_HOST_NAME>/resources/odag_wizard/odag_wizard.html and you should now see the option for your new data source Step 5

  6. Please make sure to make a pull request or comment so we can integrate the new data sources into the standard package.
