SSO Header Text and Username

gainkarthi — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

We are using SSO with header method. When we use url like this http://10.252.5.48/qlikview/index.htm?header=QVUSER&Username=user12 we are getting default user CUSTOM/ and not the user12 in this above URL (it should be logged in with user12).

Help us to resolve this.

Regards,

Karthi

That's not really the way HTTP header should be used, you should try seeking help from a more experienced consultant.

Hi.

I want to have single sign on between sharepoint (or any given .NET app) and Qlikview.

What I did:

I created a "validate.aspx" file and added the following code on the codebehind:

Response.Headers.Add("QVUSER","obracho");

As it didn't work, I also tried this:

NameValueCollection headers = HttpContext.Current.Request.Headers;

headers.Add("QVUSER","myusername");

And that didn't work neither.

I always get a "Login Failed" message.

Thanks for your help !

User Web ticketing method for SSO, which really easy to implement.
