topic Accesspoint Client configuration in QlikView

Accesspoint Client configuration

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

Moving to Qlikview v9 SR3, and I'd like to limit the client selections in "Preferred Client" list and the "Open with:" list.

I'd like to remove some of the options (Java, download) and set the default selection(IE Plugin). Any suggestions on how to change the index.htm or QvAccessPoint.js files? Or is there a server setting?

Any assistance is appreciated.

You can set the view methods with QEMC under Documents-> User Documents-><your qvw file> Simply check the access methods you want available and click apply.

You can set the default access method under System->Setup->QVWS->AccessPoint.

I was hoping to eliminate 2 of the client options from the list entirely, not just disable them/grey them out. If it's very complicated, I'll work with the method you suggested.

On the up-side, your comment about "System->Setup->QVWS->AccessPoint" was perfect.

Thanks,

I've never tried it but it appears that you can set the display to none on the UpdateClientsLinks function in QvAccessPoint.js. Try something like this:

plugin.display = can_use_plugin ? "" : "none";

and repeat for each type.

Good luck.
