Yes there is a chance, but only a very very very small one. The odds of guessing it correctly are not good.

Not unless you have made a backup!

Hello there,

There might be something that you can do like using a binary load and then store the tables into each qvd file.

In this cases normally you just want to keep an updated backup with the section access commented in the same folder so if this happens you can recover all the settings. Also you should keep the passwords in a Excel file or in a Word Document safely secured to prevent this from happening.

PS: If this doesn't help you I'm afraid you need to reconstruct the design if you haven't done an updated backup file or any other type of backup.

Dear CommonQlik,

Good tips when you are working with Section Access:

1. Be careful

2. Always make backup

3. Remember or write your credentials in your work sheet.

Kind regards,
