Requirements for configuring Qlik Sense with SSL

[Sonja_Bauernfeind]

In general, there are 3 steps needs to be done by 3 different roles when setting up SSL: 

1. Obtain a trusted certificate. 
   • This step needs to be done by the organization's System Administrator. Also it is System Administrator's responsibility to make sure the certificate is trusted. 
2. Import the certificate into Windows server where Proxy services are run. 
   • This step needs to be done by Windows Administrator. 
   • Please make sure Private key is imported correctly during the process. Please check attached article Qlik Sense: Compatibility information for third-party SSL certificates for more details. 
3. Change certificate used by Proxy in QMC 
   • This step needs to be done by Qlik Sense RootAdmin. 
   • Please check article "How to: Change the certificate used by the Qlik Sense Proxy to a custom third party certificate" for more details. 

Should you encounter any issue during this process, please make sure to contact the correct role for assistance. For instance, if you have trouble obtaining a trusted certificate, please contact the organization's System Administrator. If you have trouble importing a certificate to Windows Server, please contact Windows Administrator. 

Qlik Support can provide assistance on step 3 only.
