Discussion Board for collaboration related to QlikView App Development.
Hi,
we use the QlikView Server without the publisher (we're a small company - only 6 QV Licenses) and want to restrict the access of some parts of our QlikView documents. I've heard about "Section Access".
I read here in this community that there are some issues when it comes to using section access in an access point and now I can confirm the problems.
I would like to use section access with NTNAME, ACCESS like
SECTION ACCESS;
LOAD * INLINE [
ACCESS, NTNAME
Admin, User1
Admin, User2
User, User3
User, User4
];
SECTION APPLICATION;
The script reloads without problems in desktop application and when it comes to reloading in QMC, I got the error "Document open call failed. The document might require username and password.".
I also checked the box "data protection -> section access" in QMC -> Documents -> Reload and filled in the domain an the name of the QlikView Service-User (ourdomain\QVService) and also the password.
I also checked the box for data restriction in the configuration of the qvw file.
I also tried out this way: Section Access with QV Access Point - but without any success.
Can someone help me please?
Thanks in advance

Try to put the domainname\Username in the Inline load you have created
Try to put the domainname\Username in the Inline load you have created
When u say NTNAME,
SECTION ACCESS;
LOAD * INLINE [
ACCESS, NTNAME
Admin, User1
Admin, User2
User, User3
User, User4
];
Did u kept your Nameduser in the NTNAME column , if so, precede your name with your domain name\NTNAME
You need to include the Network/Domain name under NTNAME
SECTION ACCESS;
LOAD * INLINE [
ACCESS, NTNAME
Admin, Network1\User1
Admin, Network1\User2
User, Network1\User3
User, Network1\User4
];
Check this thread for more details
OK, the missing domain name was the issue - now I don't get any error messages while reloading in QMC.
Now I'm a single stept further...but the challenge is to keep some users away some data and I think, I don't understand section access correct, when I try this:
SECTION ACCESS;
LOAD * INLINE [
ACCESS, NTNAME
ADMIN, DOMAIN\USER1
ADMIN, DOMAIN\USER2
USER, DOMAIN\USER3
USER, DOMAIN\USER4
];
SECTION APPLICATION;
LOAD * INLINE [
ACCESS, BANKDATA
ADMIN, 1
USER, 0
];
I thought that I'm now able to do this in the application tab:
Because of the application will only be opened in access point, now one can edit this configuration and the tab would only be shown, if the user is Admin. But I fear, that my thoughts are too simple. In QlikView there must be a harder way to do this
I also see now way to show the actual rights of the logged in user. That would help me to understand the way section access works (hopefully).
So could anyone be so kind and give me another hint?
Thanks in advance.
