Short overview:

Sign-In : Pressing the sign in button will attempt to connect to the Connection shown in the drop down box.

Sign-Out: This will end your active connection to the server.

Edit: Edit all existing connection.

Reconnect: Close all open connections (sessiosn) and reconnect Excel to your last Qlik Sense server and APP.  

1. Add a connection name

BEST PRACTICE: Choose a Connection name which you can easily associate with the source system and find within a drop-down list.
