QAP Server + How to browse a mashup website ?

jim_chan — Sat, 23 Jan 2016 04:45:42 GMT

Hi there,

I have created a mashup , using mashup editor in QAP Server. I can VIEW the mashup in the dev-hub.

So, i gave my colleague the URL -- https://servername/extensions/mashup1.html . he couldnt browse through as it prompted windows authentication.

if iwant people to access the mashup site publicly, how can i resolve this issue?

Rgds,

Jim

‌QAP uses the same authentication capabilities as QSE. You will need to set up your Proxy(s) to support an authentication (default is Windows, as you are seeing now) or you can set anonymous access if your application doesn't require user security.

Hi Steve,

the link that you shared hit server error (404). "File or directory not found".

I don't know why it didn't work. Here it is again: http://help.qlik.com/sense/2.1/en-US/online/#../Subsystems/ManagementConsole/Content/anonymous-authentication.htm

If you can't reach it, go to help.qlik.com and select the Qlik Sense product you are using and search for "anonymous" and you will find it right away.

yap. in the Virtual Proxies, i have set "Always allow Anonymous" then. It is fine now. Then problem turns to, I cant create any new project on the server - servername/dev-hub/ . but when i switched it back to "No Anonymous" ,then i can create new project.

Hi Jim,

For others to view any of the content from the hub, they need to have a token assigned. This is the reason, why the windows authentication showed up.

So if you assign a token to that user, he/she should be able to see the mashup.

Thanks,

Sangram.

That is because you have not given Anonymous users rights to create new projects. You may have to create a separate proxy for your authoring team and one for your user's (anonymous) so that you can accomplish your goals.

You should review the videos/help guides on setting up your Security Rules for more information on how to do this.

Hopefully, this helped. If so, please mark the question answered. Thanks.

this make sense, Steve. any links that there's a guide to show me how to create a separate proxy for separate team. ?

But i cant provide rights to anonymous users, as they can only view the page only.

Search the help for "Creating virtual proxy" and you can add a separate virtual proxy for your different users. For example, your developers can be authenticated using Windows Authentication and you can give them rights to make changes while your users are logged in as anonymous (assuming you have the tokens) who can use but not change your application.

Hope this helps. If so, please mark the question answered. Thanks.

Hello Steve,

Hi Steve,

I have installed Qlik Sense 3.2.2 and enabled it with QAP license. As I noticed there is no tokens. then I imported an application and went to DEVHUB then created a mashup. When I put the mashup URL on other tab, it is opening fully but when the other user is trying to access it is saying ACCESS DENIED. Then what you mentioned the way above, I went to virtual Proxy , enabled anonymous users. then I write a security rule as ((user.isAnonymous() or resource.name="APPNAME")) . Then I go to license and Tokens , USER ACCESS rules , then I write user.isAnonymous(). Even then an anonymous user can't access the mashup. Can you please tell me what exactly I am missing.

Hi ,

I have a below use case:

Business users has its own portal and they want to put Qlik reports as a part of Mashups on that portal.

They want to provide access to both internal as well as External users.

External(not part of AD group) users will be logging to that portal via some login ID .

So need to understand what approach we need to take for External users and how will authentication be handled using Qlik Mashups.

I want to know how will an external user authenticate and access reports?
