Dear Experts,

I am going to live my first Qlik project. I have 10 users to create in QMC. Those are not defined anywhere (Active Directory, Database or Excel).

What is the best approach? Please guide in setting up as well.

Regards,

Zahid Rahim

HI Zahid,

As per my point of view:

If you have only ten users so Excel is best easy to manage(more flexible).

If in future there is chance to  increase users then Active Directory or database.

Thanks,

Arvind Patil

Dear Arvind,

Thank you for the reply. I have tried creating a user directory connection with excel but in vain. Can you please guide me the steps.

Do i need to install Excel on Qlik Sense Enterprise Studio Server Machine?

Further i am keep on getting error message: Exception when trying to connect to the datasource.

Regards,

Zahid Rahim
