Office 365 Sharepoint - Proxy Authentication Required

shaun_lombard — Mon, 05 Dec 2022 23:27:46 GMT

We are running Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows August 2022. I am trying to configure a new connection to Office 365 Sharepoint but getting the following error message:

Error verifying: The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required.

This error occurs after I hit verify of the authentication code.

Does anyone know where I can enter the proxy details? Where can I find logs?

I assume it may have to be entered in this config file but cannot find details on it.

QvWebStorageProviderConnectorPackage.exe.config

Any assistance appreciated.

Hello @shaun_lombard ,

You should be able to add proxy settings to the deploy.config file located here:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Qlik\Custom Data\QvWebConnectorPackage

<Proxy>
<UseProxy>false</UseProxy>
<ProxyAddress></ProxyAddress>
<ProxyUsername></ProxyUsername>
<ProxyDomain></ProxyDomain>
<ProxyPassword></ProxyPassword>
</Proxy>

Hope that helps!

Thanks @Jay_Brown that put me on the right path.

I updated the deploy.config file in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Qlik\Custom Data\QvWebStorageProviderConnectorPackage

Not ideal that I had to use my personal credentials, trying to find out from our security team if there is a generic proxy user I can use.
