Reverting the proxy URL (base URL) setting in Sisense Linux L2021.1.0+
Sisense allows configuring the application to be accessed behind a reverse proxy. There are two main steps to do so: Create and configure a reverse proxy server (e.g. Nginx or Apache) to proxy traffic from the desired URL to the Sisense server. Update the Proxy (Base) URL in the Sisense settings. In cases when the first step was not finished or was misconfigured, proceeding with the second step may lock you out of the application, preventing you from reverting the Proxy URL changes in Sisense. This guide explains how to revert the changes via REST API and Sisense admin credentials. For more details about the proxy configurations please refer to https://community.sisense.com/t5/knowledge-base/reverse-proxy-with-nginx-ssl-configuration/ta-p/5358Connection Tool - Programmatically Remove Unused Datasource Connections, and List All Connections
Managing connections within your Sisense environment can become complex over time, if there are a large number of connections, and connections are often added, and replace earlier datasource connections. In some scenarios unused connections can accumulate, potentially cluttering the connection manager UI with no longer relevant connections. Although unused connections typically represent minimal direct security risk, it's considered best practice to maintain a clean, organized list of connections, and in some scenarios it can be desired to remove all unused connections. Sisense prevents the deletion of connections actively used in datasources, safeguarding your dashboards and datasources from disruptions. However, inactive or "orphaned" connections remain after datasources are deleted or a connection is replaced, potentially contributing to unnecessary UI complexity in the connection manager UI. Connections can be of any type Sisense supports, common types include various SQL connections, Excel files, and CSV files, as well as many data providers, such as Big Panda. This tool can also be used to list all connections, with no automatic deletion of unused connections.
