Passing Username / Password to another application

[sjhussain]

Hello

We are calling a URL trigger action (.net application) from Qlikview and want to pass username / password from qlikview to the application to authenticate it.

http://<ipaddress>/netapp

Is there a way to pass username / password in a secure manner from Qlikview?

Will appreciate if someone can assist.

Thanks.

Give it a try with

http://username:password@example.compassword@example.com

but also read that not all browsers support this

Peter,

Thanks for the response. Actually we do not want to show the Username/Password in the URL for security purposes.

Is there anyother way? Any variables we can use from Qlikview?

Thanks.
