Hello @IK2,

It should work (I've just tested with the same versions than you).

Maybe you have a test license or maybe you missed a step ?

@Benoit_C

Thanks for replying, i have production server not test,

i have followed same steps mentions in the post you shared, i can see the link in my Hub and when i click the link it opens the Qlik sense Desktop, but shows me the "Add Authentication Link" button only.

i tried deleting the link from qmc and generated again but no luck.

Thanks.

Hello @IK2,

In your QMC --> virtual proxy --> Client Authentication link

If here you click the button "Generate", it will show you a link starting with "qliksense://"

If you copy this whole link and past it on your browser where is installed Qlik Sense Desktop, what your browser will do ?

Regards,

Benoit

Hi @Benoit_C

when i copy Client Authentication link from QMC --> virtual proxy --> Client Authentication link

and i past it in my browser, it shows me popup to open qlik sense desktop (below screen shot)

then i do click "Open QlikSenseBrowser" , it opens Qlik Sense Desktop in my laptop, and i see below screen

i tried both way , click link from hub, and copy pasting link in browser, but i end up with this screen(shown above)

Thanks.

Hello @IK2,

What is the OS version where you have installed Qlik Sense Desktop ?

Can you show a screenshot of your authentication link in the QMC virtual proxy ?

Thanks,

Benoit

Hello @IK2,

If you put this URL (the one you have set in QMC) in your browser where is installed Qlik Sense desktop, are you having access to it ?

About logs, I don't believe you will find something as nothing seems to happen. But it's worth a try to check it.

The Qlik Sense desktop logs are located here:

C:\Users\<username>\Documents\Qlik\Sense\Log

Benoit
