How to remove the User Identification popup when opening in server

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

I want to implement security based purely on passwords alone. No usernames.

The section access looks like this:

SECTION Access;

LOAD * INLINE [

ACCESS, PASSWORD,

ADMIN, SUPERMAN

USER, ROBIN

];

When I open the QlikView document on the server, only the password popup appears.

When I open the QlikView document from a pc, using the "open in server" option, a user identification popup appears. How can I remove the user identification popup when opening the document from a pc?

The QlikView client software installed on the PC is QV9 SR6 32-Bit.

Regards,

Jean.

Have you tried using just USERID, rather than just PASSWORD? That should give you the same level of security - just a single thing to enter - the only difference would be that the username is not hidden on entry, like a password.

Thanks, Colin. Your method does provide a useful workaround for the problem. However, I'd still like to use the password popup which is hidden on entry.

Try putting USERID in as well, but give the value in the inline table as * like this

ACCESS, USERID, PASSWORD

ADMIN, *, SUPERMAN

USER, *, ROBIN

Dont forget to qualify * before the load statement:

star is *;

Hi Gordon.

Thanks for your reply. I gave it a try, but the User Identification popup still appears.
