Hi,

There is no such feature available.

You have to reset his password from custom directory itself from your QlikView server.

As per my knowledge Qlikview doesn't provide any such option ...one way to achieve is to build a custom page for the access point and then you can try to implement this requirement

No, you need to edit the Access point Index page and then add you required HTML code accordingly

Just add a link (again you need to edit the index page ) and on click of this redirect it to the application or LDAP where the forgot password is already implemented

hope this helps you

I think it could be possible to build a custom-page like above mentioned - but it won't be easy, especially if you want to automate that in a kind of a self-service-portal. It strikes me easier to include a small form within login-page which send a email to your qv admin-team which could then prompt react.

Have you managed to change the login page for Access Point? I need to add there the "Forgot password" email button or link. This is what I need, just a simple link with mailto tag. I know that I have to chnage the FormLogin.htm page and the CSS. But I am not familiar with CSS. Can anyone help?

Thanks!

Hi Katovina,

As if now, there is no such feature provided by QlikView about Forget password on access point.

But, It is achievable using following ways

- You can create on custom page using any scripting language for this you will to connect to webpage expert. In this there will be a link provided to email to the admin so that he/she will get the notification that the user looking to reset the password then they will be able to reset your password.

Hope it helps you

Regards,

Mahamed

If you adjust the html-file: http://YourServer/qlikview/FormLogin.htm‌ you could add such a link. Here an code-snippet from my adjustment:


<div id="loginBox">
<form action="/QvAJAXZfc/Authenticate.aspx?back=/qlikview/FormLogin.htm" method="post">
      <span class="formTitle top">User Name:</span><span class="formField"><input type="text" id="username" name="username" title="username" class="top" /></span>
      <span class="formTitle">Password:</span><span class="formField"><input type="password" autocomplete="off" id="password" name="password" title="password" /></span>
      <input type="Submit" class="loginSubmitButton" value=" "/>
      <span class="formTitle">
      <h3>
      <a href="mailto:QlikViewAdministration@YourCompany.com?subject=QlikView%20Anmeldeproblem&body=Hallo%20QlikViewAdministration,%0D%0A%0D%0Aich%20habe%20folgendes%20Problem&#58;&#10;&#10;">Problem mit Login</a>
      </h3>
      </span>
</form>

The file is quite small and you will find this part easily. Below the button is the new mailto-link added. For me it looked so:

It's not very nice from a layout point of view but it's acceptable for me.

Very important: before adjusting any of Qlik's working-files make a Backup!

Edit: be not confused of the added login-form - my code-snippet will be executed in this posting.
