QlikView 11 EDX using digital certificates

Fri, 06 Jun 2014 14:20:13 GMT

Hello,

Our server is configured to use digital certificates, so QMS API is accessible only through https.

How can I launch an EDX trigger in this setup? I am getting SSL or 403 errors.

Is it possible to generate a certificate as it is done for a service residing on another host but for a host without any services that will just launch EDX triggers?

Regards,

Krzysztof

Hello,

In a setup with QMS API accessible only via HTTPS with digital certificates, launch an EDX trigger by obtaining the necessary SSL certificates and configuring your application accordingly. Address SSL errors and handle 403 errors with appropriate permissions. For a host without services, generate a self-signed SSL certificate using tools like OpenSSL. Note that self-signed certificates may not be trusted in production, so for secure production use, obtain valid SSL certificates from a trusted CA. Follow security best practices for reliable communication.

Hi @lopdesaq34 thanks for your response. I don't think I am following your suggestion.

so we did take the certificates from qlikview server and imported into the server (alteryx server), and then tried to trigger the task from the alteryx server, and it didnt work.
