Object or sheet level section access

Hi,

I have implemented section access using below thresds and it is working fine while using USERID.

Chart Level Access by user

https://community.qlik.com/docs/DOC-4435

https://community.qlik.com/docs/DOC-7327

However if we use NTNAME and approach the same, it is showing error while opening from access point that "Failed to open document. You do not have access"

Even i have found many comment in thread Chart Level Access by user saying that NTNAME is not working for them. But i have not found any solution.

Can anyone help why this approach not working when it comes to NTNAME?

Hi,

NTNAME base section access have some condition:

1. System login matches it will open directly

2. If if falls under different domain, it will prompt for ID and password.

Check the system domain as well.

Because in access point the NTNAME will be based on domain.

Have you tried with NTNAME in you desktop ?, are you able to login ?

Make sure NTNAME should be like: Domain\username.

if not please share your section access script.
