QGA can consume geodata from many different sources, here's what's needed to use a TMS a background map in QGA.
Sense Map chart
Start with specifying the source. In this case the source is a TMS from ArcGIS Online: World_Topo_Map.
Old QGA Map extensions
Start with specifying the source. In this case the source is a TMS from ArcGIS Online: World_Topo_Map.

Authentication in ArcGIS
Special note regarding Authentication in ArcGIS (Thanks to ssamuels for the solution)
The authentication when working with secured map services from ESRI can be solved by setting up a REST connection in the loadscript to retrieve a new access token from the REST API of ArcGIS Online. This is done by sending a GenerateToken request to the URL "https://www.arcgis.com/sharing/generateToken?parameters". The REST call must be a POST request over https and takes the following parameters:
username - Username of the user who wishes to get a token.
password - Password of user who wishes to get a token.
referer - The base URL of the web application that will invoke the services
expiration - The token expiration time in minutes (default value for this parameter is 60 minutes)
f - The response format. The value for this parameter must be "json".
The resulting access token is stored in the data model and can be used as a text variable to append to the location service url in the GeoAnalytics extension.
The current way is to retrieve the token at load time and save in a variable but that requires most likely longer expiration time than 5 minutes. The timeout is set in the ArcGIS server.

Hello Patric
I'm trying with this URL from an ArcGIS local server https://srv-wadaptor.dipol.loc/arcgisfed/rest/services/MapasBase/World_Topo_Map/MapServer/0 but now works, can you help me to create the correct URL please
@marcos_herrera the url is internal so I can't try it.
Ues the info above and compare your url, it shouldn't be too hard to decipher.
Thanks

Hello @Patric_Nordstrom , Thank you for the explnation.
I tried to use:
http://aaa.aaa.com/arcgismap/rest/services/aaa/aaa/MapServer/0/tile/{z}/{y}/{x}.png
which is accessible for me( I replace 'a' with some words in order to keep our client privacy)
But I could not see the map.
In your opinion what could be a problem?
Thank you in advance.
Regards.

Hello @Patric_Nordstrom
The option worked for me with the URL and using Geo Analytics Plus because the customer does not have access to internet, i have a little problem now, when the Map Object tries to use TMS as a background, first tries to search the Base Map on Qlik Cloud GA and for this reason the background takes around 2 minutes to show ArcGis Base map. Is Possible disable the Qlik Cloud GA Search?
Thanks
@Matsa open the devtools network tab and check that the images load correctly.
@marcos_herrera the QGA map view requires a QGA Server, either maps.qlikcloud.com or an on-premise QGA Server. I recommend to use the native map chart instead, it can connect to a WMS and can work without internet connection. Without Internet only the stored geometries and any local map background maps will show. Name lookup and Qlik basemaps will not show.
