Identify a unique user or Qlik Sense instance

[shestac92]

For licensing purposes, we'd like to identify something unique when a user runs an extension.

Is it possible to identify a unique user ID or Qlik Sense installation ID/instance ID?

The thing is that Sense Desktop provide only machine name and 'Personal/Me', both are not unique. And Sense Enterprise provides UserDirectory and UserLogin which are not unique too.

Can we get something unique from Sense User to implement licensing mechanism? 

Thanks!

Hi,

What is your end goal. What you are trying to achieve?

The final goal is to distinguish who launched the extension. In an ideal situation in Sense Desktop we'd like to know the user's Qlik profile name or email or login or the unique Desktop instance id if it exists.

In Sense Enterprise the unique Qlik server ID if it exists or something that can help to distinguish one Qlik server from another.
