Qlik Cloud Section Access Error Code 5

dana — Fri, 06 Sep 2024 09:48:26 GMT

Hi People,

I have a user with Analyzer license. Member in a managed space.

In the space, apps without section access can be opened with no issue.

After adding section access, the user is getting the attached error code.

I have checked the section access by removing Section Access and Section Application, and it works fine.

The script looks like similar to that (after annonymizing the mail)

SECTION ACCESS;

LOAD * INLINE [

ACCESS , USER.EMAIL
ADMIN, XXXX@YYY.COM
ADMIN, AAAA@BBBB.COM

];

Will appreciate some help!

Hi @dana,

The only things I can think of are:

1- Double check if the user email matches the USER.EMAIL

2 - If the user email is listed in the app Data after the reload of the application - do that commenting out the Section Access and Section Applicaiton

3 - How is the user accessing the Application? From a URL or from the Hub?

4 - The same user can access other apps in the same Managed Space

Regards,

Mark Costa

Hi @marksouzacosta,

Thanks for your kind help.

I would like to add that the owner of the app is included in the section access and when logged in, he can open it without a problem.

I added another user, and got the same issue.

1- Double check if the user email matches the USER.EMAIL - It does

2 - If the user email is listed in the app Data after the reload of the application - do that commenting out the Section Access and Section Applicaiton - Yes, it appears

3 - How is the user accessing the Application? From a URL or from the Hub? From the hub

4 - The same user can access other apps in the same Managed Space - yes, same app without Section Access.

It is a such a frustrating issue! spending hours without knowing the reason 🙂

Thanks,

Dana

Looks like you have everything covered.

Can you please send me two things?
1- A screenshot of your Load Script (the section access part)

2 - A screenshot of the user credentials (like the print below but showing the email)?

If those things are confidential, you can send me a private message.

Hi,

I removed empty lines from Section Access, as you suggested, but it didn't help.

I didn't mention but this app was imported from Sense on Windows. Can this cause an issue?

I created a new app, with one sheet, made it public.

Now the user can enter the app, but doesn't see the sheet..

Thanks,

Dana

Interesting. I never faced this problem before (the one about importing the app from Sense).

Regarding the Sheets, I was not able to reproduce this problem. Since you have published the Sheet, all users are supposed to see it.
Check the user rights on the Space and see if it has the appropriated rights (maybe you can select everything just for tests). Also. check the user on the Administration Menu and see if the option Embedded Analytics is unchecked.

Hi Mark,

I haven't seen an option to define user rights on a Space.

I did check all the possible option for the roles (except Embedded Analytics), and now the user can see the sheet.

But unfortunately, it didn't resolve the original issue.

Thanks!

Hi Mark,

Looks like there is an issue with this specific app.

With another imported app, I don't have a similar issue..

I sure hope that I won't have to recreate it in the cloud..

I ended up importing the app again.

First thing I did was to adapt the Section Access script to the cloud (USER.ID to USER.MAIL),

and the rest of the script (connections etc.)

After reload and publish, there was no issue.

Thanks to @marksouzacosta for his kind help 🙂

We are having a similar issue

- we imported the app from on-prem (no cloud friendly section access)

- published over it an app from a shared space (previosly imported and modified with cloud friendly section access)

- entering the app gives err 5, but then it works correctly

We did this in order to preserve user objects.

Any advice?
