combine NT security with user access table

ali_hijazi — Tue, 14 Jun 2011 15:50:17 GMT

Hello

is there a way to accomplish the following scenario via the section access?

I want my qlikview document to be opened by both active directory users and developers who are not on the active directory

so suppose the user who is opening the document is logging to windows with a user name x but x is not listed under the NTNAME field of the section access table but I want qlikview to prompt for a user id and a password and this user is listed under USERID field of the same section access table

is this possible?

Yes,

QlikView works as you describe it.

Example:

Section Access;

LOAD * INLINE [

ACCESS, USERID, PASSWORD, NTNAME

ADMIN, ADMIN, welcome, *

USER, *, *, DOMAIN\USERNAME

];

Section Application;

When DOMAIN\USERNAME opens QlikView he/she will be granted access by single-sign on.

When ADMIN opens QlikView he/she will get a login-window. By submitting Admin as its username and welcome as the password access is granted to the file.
