url with user and password

Hi all,

I need to build a URL to go inside a Qlikview document with userid and password nested into this link.

I try both the following configuration but without results.

The user has a Named CAL in the server and userid and password are correct.

http://servername/QvAjaxZfc/opendoc.htm?document=XYZ.qvw&host=QVS@hostname?USERID=user&PASSWORD=pass...

This url prompt me for username and password.

qvp://hostname\user:@server/XYZ.qvw

This one prompt me for password.

Someone can help me?

Thanks in advance,

Davide

Hi Davide,

The syntax above is used for authorization when the document uses Section Access, but will not work for authentication. You will be prompted unless you specify otherwise in the browser security settings.

You cannot pass your credentials by URL, only for section access as long as you are already authenticated.

Hope that makes sense.

Miguel
