Qlik Data Gateway - Direct Access

Data source connectors that support Qlik Data Gateway - Direct Access appear twice in the Add data connection dialog. Once with just the data source name and once with the data source name followed by (via Direct Access gateway). Qlik Data Gateway - Direct Access eliminates the need to open inbound firewall ports, allowing Qlik Sense SaaS applications to securely access firewalled data. If your enterprise data source is located behind a firewall and can be accessed via Qlik Data Gateway - Direct Access, it is strongly recommended to connect to it via the Direct Access gateway.

Data source connectors that support Qlik Data Gateway - Direct Access are marked with an asterisk.

Information noteUsers that need to leverage gateway-enabled data connections must have the Can Consume Data permission for the space with which the gateway is associated.
