How to suppress the login input-box when using section access on Accesspoint?

[uacg0009]

Hi All,

I have a question about the section access. I just want to suppress the login-box when I open a dashboard that's using section access on AccessPoint.

The background is :

I installed the WebServer on IIS.

And we are using the SSO for users(getwebticket), so user can click a button to jump to the AccessPoint, so we only know the user's username.

In section access, i only judge the USERID, like

ACCESS   USERID   REGION

ADMIN      AIOLOS   

USER       TEST        USA

USER       TEST1      CHINA

When user = TEST click the dashboard on AccessPoint, it will jump to a login-box

I need to input the username and the password(I create in QMC, not the real password of user, because I don't know the real password), then I can get into the dashboard, but I only judge the USERID in section access, so I don't want user to input userid and password here, I just want to get into the dashboard directly when I click it.

So what should I do for it?

Thanks.

Hi Aiolos,

You may use NT authentication instead of USERID and PASSWORD fields on Section Access.

If you have UserID and Password fields, QlikView will ask you to a user by input box.

If you want to use section access with USERID but at the same time you do not want to use USERID, then why use section access at all? The USERID/PASSWORD security has one guaranteed feature: it doesn't connect to anything outside of the document and thus provides real embedded security. Whether the document runs off and ends up at the other side of the globe or not.

Alternatives to your deadlock:

use NTNAME and real SSO as supplied by Windows and (optionally) AD, or by any other DSC controlled directory

use file security to grant access to a document by setting Read permissions in Windows Explorer.

Of course, this kind of security (and security in general) depend on whether you can identify a user at all times and for all components of the QlikView environment.

Hi Manuel,

Thanks for reply, because we don't want to know users' password, and user login the accesspoint using their email, but not NTNAME, so I try to user USERID(only USERID, no PASSWORD), because I think the USERID means the login username when they get into the accesspoint.just like :

Is there any way to use this account name to control the section access? so that it won't need to input username and password when I get into the dashboard.

Thanks.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for reply. Because I think the USERID means the username when we login the accesspoint :

User login the accesspoint using their email(SSO from my company portal), and we only get their email in database, not NTNAME, so I decide to use USERID to do the section access. Because I think if the USERID = the username, it's done. So do you know how to use this username to do the section access?

And if I change to use NTNAME method, I just need to change the section access to NTNAME, right?

Thanks.

And I also want to know that if I use the same username and password to login the accesspoint in different computer(different user name), it will show different data, right? (if I set different data in section access for these 2 computer user name)

Thanks.
