Anyone having luck in making qliksense server to allow anonymous user?

Tue, 01 Dec 2015 04:32:02 GMT

Hi qlikers,

I'm trying to make a mashup to be accessible by external clients. But I'm already having trouble in allowing a local network machine in accessing my mashup. ,

My configuration is,

At server
Running IIS to host a webpage with login, that then redirect to a mashup page.
Running QlikSense Enterprise.

The content was accessible locally. but not externally. I have tried using the mashup as well as the single configurator ( shouldn't related to network issue, but tried anyway).

Is this solution even possible? I'm not familiar with deployment, please advice.

I can help you setup Qlik Sense server allow anonymous user if you need it.

Create new virtual proxy and in authentication set Anonymous access mode tp "Allow anonymous user"

Then go to License and tokens create login access rules with Security rule conditions "user.IsAnonymous()"

That is all.

Hi Alexander,

Created new virtual proxy and in authentication set Anonymous access mode to "Allow anonymous user"

Then go to License and tokens create login access rules with Security rule conditions "user.IsAnonymous()"

Now, When I tried to login with newly created virtual proxy, It consumed my one login access but when I go to single configurator , there is showing no applications.

Please guide me how to configure Qlik Site where any perticular application object is visible to an anonymous user can see in single configurator or on web portal ?

Secondly, when I created a login access I needed to allocate one TOKEN least to make it, My concern is , when I create login access rule for QAP, do I need to provide TOKEN again or how to create login access rule for QAP where any number of user can come and view Qlik Sense Objects.

Hello. Anonymous user can view only application published in Everyone steam. It's behavior by default.

May be you need import and then publish application in Everyone steam

I got it ,So If I create a virtual proxy and allow anonymous users there and then publish an application to everyone and then hit the URL as https://node/prefix/hub , under Everyone , My application is visible to , Right ?

Now my important Question is, I can create an Login access rule where I can say User Directory=ABC can access the my publish application to any particular stream in Qlik Server site then user from User Directory ABC can come access the hub. Now, point here is , How to write a rule which says, any particular application objects under QAP will be visible to those users who has access on web portal where I will embed my Qlik Objects?

Is this a concept , Under QAP Qlik Objects only visible on Portal only not on hub ?

If I publish an application to Everyone stream and try to hit the URL , It will consume my 1 Login ACCESS PASS ?

Hi Alexander , Please answer me above query , I just wana know how to configure or write security rules to allow a set of user access an application under QAP ? I am not looking for a solution with Login access where a set of user will come and access the application

i'm sorry. QAP license policy different from Qlik Sense server. QAP license has no tokens. Edit Central Virtual proxy - "allow anonymous user". Then open https://server/dev-hub/single-configurator and get object from aplication

Just to clarify your input, When I will check into QAP server , there will be no TOKENS.

Secondly, lets say on Client web portal 100 users have access but I want to give access to only some specific , How to do it ?

You can configure using security rules. i say again - QAP it's not QS Server. It is planned that you will embed application elements into your web pages. You can define access restrictions using your web page.

Thanks Alexander for your input.

I am very close to my solution Alexander.

I have two here, restriction using web page is , I need to define on web server which user will watch it, kind of web developer work or take some user details from web server and write a security rules like this group will have read access on Qlik Sense Object.

My important questions are and may be the last one: Can one single license has property of QAP and QS(Tokens) and what if Client don't have a web portal(web page with web server), how to implement QAP ?
