LOg in Credentials Window

azmeerrehan — Tue, 12 Sep 2017 14:07:39 GMT

I have a section access built in the App with the below script.

User ID is like "f689755" without the domain. Its works perfectly fine. The issue is that it asks for the user name and password everytime the user try to access it from Access Point. This causes issue with opening bookmarks too. Is there a way to disable the window asking for credentials on access point.

sECTION access;

LOAD

UPPER(ACCESS) AS ACCESS,

UPPER(USERID) AS USERID,

FROM

[..\Excel Files\NA_Veg_Section_Access.xlsx]

(ooxml, embedded labels, table is [Qlik User Security ]);

section application;

Why don't you use NTNAME?

Indeed.

USERID always forces the document to ask for a username, because the list of users allowed to access this document is embedded in this document.

Moreover, it is extremely selfevident that this always works, because you're not using a PASSWORD. So upon entering a valid username (which I assume f689755 is), the document will always open.

On condition that you do not have an entry with an star, NTNAME will only allow access to users that have been authenticated before by Windows. And it comes with SSO, so there you have your solution: no more annoying dialogs nagging about a username
