QlikSense Hub Externalisation

[karthickv]

Hi All,

While the Drag and Drop development is made possible for the Users in our network through Qlik Sense Hub, Can this be externalised for other users ?

In Qlikview, we utilise QV Web Server for people within our network and for others we provide externalised (using IIS) links. Hence trying to understand whether externalisation is possible in QlikSense at the moment.

Thanks,

Karthick V.

Hi Karthick,

There is no IIS support in Sense at the moment.

For the scenario that you mention, you would need to set up a separate Virtual Proxy in Sense that would provide a different form of authentication from your external and internal users.

Thanks,

Many thanks for your response Simon !

If not IIS, how would the Virtual proxy help to allow external users ? If you have some reference(URL\Document) can you kindly point me to the same.

Thanks,

Karthick V.

Hi Karthick,

There's a number of ways of doing this. Port Forwarding on the router or using a redirect is probably the simplest, and this can be achieved if you already have a public facing IIS server:

The Virtual proxy would be used in this case if you required a separate method or authentication for your external and internal users.
