Hello
a client has the following requirements:
Please advise
Hi,
Have a look at the below link. It has a authentication from Sales force. In similar fashion you can do with database.

Can the external system that generates the username/password be used to perform the Authentication process when a user tries to access Qlik Sense?
Or are you looking for Qlik Sense to manage challenging the user for a username / password and then validated it before letting the user access content?
I'm actually looking for Qlik Sense to manage the authentication of users before letting them access content; these users are not windows users created on an active directory but by another application which can be read by Qlik
I just want to know how will the syntax be in Section access and if it is possible to give these users licenses etc.....
the user names actually reside in a SQL table
can end users use these usernames to access content on Qlik Sense server?
what will be the syntax in Section Access (as far as I know usernames should be in the form of domain\username)
Please advise
Surely if the users are in a SQL database, all you would need to do is create a UDC (user directory connector) to the database. When you setup your UDC you provide a User Directory name which essentially becomes your domain name. This domain name can be used in section access.
Hi Shaun
That would handle the Authorisation problem, as the users id could now be used to control the access to data in the app via section access.
But that doesn't solve the Authentication problem does it?
Qlik will still require some way for the user to Authericate themselves before gaining access.
Correct, that does not solve the authentication problem.
