Section Access

[sk88024]

Hi, 

I am new to Section Access in QlikView, means I have not worked on it for multiple scenarios. 

I have a requirement where - if user name is not there in section access file but user name is listed in distribution list in QMC, user should NOT be able to access the dashboard.  The user name must be there in Section Access list to be able to access the dashboard.

How can I achieve this? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

First you should take a look at https://help.qlik.com/en-US/qlikview/April2020/Subsystems/Client/Content/QV_QlikView/Security.htm?l=...

Also could you post a sample qvw to look at?

a standard option in QlikView is that Accesspoint filters application for users who are not listed in section access

see here

never mentioned that the comment is happened, so you can use it

Thank you All for your opinion on this. 

I have found a solution for this requirement and that is - Using System Access, the user will not be able to access unless the username has been added to the section/system access file, even though the username is present in QMC task distribution list. 

Thanks & Regards,
