You could add them to the local users on the server. That way they are not part of the AD.

Hi Mallik,

If you are displaying the dashboard in the Web page(using an IFrame) then in the code behind page, you need to pass the logged in user name.

This user must be added in the QMC -> System -> Directory Services -> Custom Directory -> Users.

Thanks,

Sai Krishna

Thank you Sai Krishna for your input.

Here I would like to confirm one point -: After adding external User/s to Customer Directory do that external user/s can able to access QlikView dashboard from out of domain ?

Have you implemented that functionality ? Please let me know what are the settings need to do @ QEMC level and @ Dashboard level ?

Thank you.
