NPrinting API w/ Qlik Sense Web Portal (Single Sign-on?)

DennisNorton — Tue, 09 Oct 2018 19:57:36 GMT

This is more a question about NPrinting API / SSO authentication. Currently, users login to view Qlik Sense reports via mashup using web ticketing authentication, and this all works great.

However, when we want to call the NPrinting API, it prompts the user to authenticate to NPrinting via Windows Authentication dialogue box. The line of code for this call is such:

$.ajax({ url: 'http://example.com:port/api/v1/login/ntlm', xhrFields: { withCredentials: true

Is there some way to 'pass' the authentication through to nprinting automatically without prompting users to login a second time? Ideally, since users are already logged in to the web portal, I imagined some method to pass those credentials through to the same login name on the NPrinting server.

Hi,

Qlik NPrinting supports JWT https://help.qlik.com/en-US/nprinting/September2018/Content/NPrinting/DeployingQVNprinting/JWT-authentication.htm but I don't know if Qlik Sense can work as Identity Provider and send a JWT with the APIs call.

Best Regards,

Ruggero
