Qilk Replicate: How to switch from single-sign on to a log in form

[Steve_Nguyen]

By default, Qlik Replicate uses Single Sign-on through Windows Authentication to authenticate users who log in to the Replicate UI Console.

If may be necessary to change the authentication prompt to prompt for user name and password which does not involve launching a browser in Incognito mode or disabling Windows Authentication on the browser.

Resolution

On the Qlik Replicate server:

1. Open an elevated (administrator) command prompt
2. Navigate to the Replicate\bin directory
3. To view the current configuration, run: 
   
   repuictl configuration show
   
   
   
   This will return:
   
   

   --address ""
   --http_port "80"
   --https_port "443"
   --root_url "attunityreplicate"
   --user_timeout "5"
   --domain "domain.local"
   --ad_default_container ""
   --authentication_method "SSO"
   --static_http_headers
   --rest_http_headers
   --use_strict_same_site_cookie "False"

4. To change the authentication_method to forms, run:
   
   repuictl configuration set --authentication_method form --user_timeout 30
   
   This changes the method to form and sets a user timeout of 30 minutes.
   
   
5. To verify the current configuration, run:
   
   repuictl configuration show
   
   This will now return:
   
   --address ""
   --http_port "80"
   --https_port "443"
   --root_url "attunityreplicate"
   --user_timeout "30"
   --domain "domain.local"
   --ad_default_container ""
   --authentication_method "FORM"
   --static_http_headers
   --rest_http_headers
   --use_strict_same_site_cookie "False"
   
   
6. Restart the Qlik Replicate service

For Qlik Replicate to work with Qlik Enterprise Manager, SSO must be used. If you change to form authentication, Qlik Replicate will no longer authenticate with Qlik Enterprise Manager. Error: SYS-E-CREATSESS, Failed to create a session with the server (server response status is Server did not return a session cookie. Verify server URL is correct.).
