How to Access the QMC

[KyleR111]

Hi, is the QMC pictured Below (Pic1) different from Pic2? 

I ask because i only have access to the management console in Pic2 and i don't see the virtual proxy option there. Was trying to set up SSO but am unable to because of the virtual proxy. 

some places say https://<QPS server name>/qmc is how you access it, but i dont have a QLIK Proxy Server, (i have never installed one anyway). 

So kind of 2 questions

1. are the two QMCs different

2. how do i access QMC to set up a SSO

Hello ,

Here is the information for each of the Qlik Sense implementations you pictured:

1. Authentication solutions ( Qlik Sense Etnerprise) )

2. Setting up identity providers ( Qlik Sense Cloud SAAS)

Thank you, I will take a look.

And just for my understanding, if i have the QLIK SAAS enterprise, i can't access the PIC1 QMC?

Hello @KyleR111 ,

It depends on the licensing you have. You might have a Qlik Sense client managed and distribute apps to Qlik Cloud and hence you could access both consoles, the Qlik Cloud one and the Qlik Sense client managed one.

Also, you user if having a shared license on both products, might belong to both deployments, so it really matter on the deployment you have.

Cheers,

Albert

Hi @Albert_Candelario thanks for your response as well. I have Qlik Sense Enterprise SaaS / QSE Client-Managed for QSE SaaS . 

Basically I am trying to set up Single Sign On and it seems I can't do it without setting up a virtual proxy which I have not been able to find in the 2nd screenshot. 

When i do https://<QPS server name>/qmc it takes me to the 2nd screenshot. 

Is there a way to set up SSO without virtual proxy then if i can't access the environment in the 1st screenshot?

Hello @KyleR111 ,

Qlik Cloud has NO proxy, neither Virtual Proxy.

By default it uses QlikID, if your license has the Bring your own idp attribute, then you can set up an IdP on your tenant.

You need to check:

Identity providers | Qlik Cloud Help

Setting up identity providers | Qlik Cloud Help

example on Azure AD:

(1) Qlik Cloud: Configure Azure Active Directory as an IdP - YouTube

I hope this help!

Cheers,

Albert
