Access point Security/Access

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

Hi,

How do I restrict access to access point for a particular user? Again, I am not talking of file based security through QMC or QEMC

E.g: If sdqlvw002 is the box, and the particlular user tries the URL http://sdqlvw002/Qlikview/# ,

He should not see any files/ Access should be denied. Has any one worked on this? Please suggest!

Hi Siddharth,

U want to restrict the users in acess point?

Satish,

Usually, what happens in access point is that, the user can see all files, but when he clicks on a particular file, access is granted/denied based on security settings set up in publisher for that file and user

Requirement:

When the user A goes to the access point URL, he should not see any files in the 1st place.

I know there is a login option for access point in QEMC settings.Have you ever used it. How does it work? Does the user need to log in again? what kind of login credentials are required there?

Thanks

Siddharth

Hi Siddharth,

what I suggest for ur requirement,

Ex:

if u have 2 app in access point

1) Finance.qvw 2)Manufacturing.qvw

and total 5 users(a,b,c,d,e) if user a,b wants see the application Finance only(In access point itself)

then

go to that application right click-->Properties-->Security

In Security tab, u ll c the user names

select Advance button

and unselect Inherit from parent permission

after select copy then select apply

this is for usera,b c only finance application in acess point itself.

I hope it ll helpful for u

Regards
