On top of hash functions https://help.qlik.com/en-US/cloud-services/Subsystems/Hub/Content/Sense_Hub/Scripting/StringFunction...

would be useful some implementation of Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC).

Some API´s (like https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/signature-v4-examples.html#signature-v4-examples-pytho...) requires hmac codes to authenticate the API.

This is impossible to achieve currently using pure Qlik functions.

The only workaround currently is call one external REST API to make the calculations

Hi Clever,

Could you use the hash_hmac() PHP function in a custom code block in QAA?

@Emile_Koslowski cool. I´ve tried with node.js and wasn't able to use it.

So we can keep it only for Qlik Sense

[Emile_Koslowski]

It's a PHP function, can you try setting the Custom Code block's language to PHP?

[Clever_Anjos]

@Emile_Koslowski  I was able to verify that we can implement using PHP for QAA.

I kept the idea for Qlik Sense scripts
