Connecting to Qlik API: Section Access Not Applied on Linux Server

We want to connect a Linux server to the Qlik API to retrieve data from an application that has an SA. Unfortunately, the SA does not apply in what the API returns.

The server identifies the user and the fact that he or she has access rights to the Qlik application the server is querying, but does not apply the SA. However, if the same user connects directly to the application, the SA is activated.


Is there a particular parameter to implement in the Linux server that calls the API?

Perhaps a problem with the API key?

Hey @Juju , I guess you are using Qlik engine APIs or enigma.js for getting data from a Qlik App, correct? If so, you are using a server for making API calls, so you have to impersonate a user in order to provide a userId to section access. Did you do this or you are acting as super user or admin user?
