Thanks,

Headers are passed behind the scenes and not in the URL. Fiddler is the easiest tool to inject headers, but extensions / plugins exist for many browsers. See:
Hi Levi,
So I need to download fiddler on my server machine and configure as per the second image.
in that you are passing only one user , if I need to pass multiple user then how to configure.
Thanks in Advance,
Ramarajan M
Fiddler is just an easy tool to set the headers of the web browser's request.
You can always change the values in the second image (which are specific to my machine, by the way, you will want to adjust to domain\userid for your environment) if you need to emulate another user.
Hi Levi,
I have users list like ,
1.Test1
2.Test2
3.Test3
Thanks,
Ramarajan M.
in Fiddler you are passing only one user like "USERDIRECTORY\Test1" then how to pass those remaining 2 users.
You can only inject the headers for one user in a fiddler session. You can always close the browser, change the Fiddler request headers, and then emulate another user.
Hi Levi,
Final doubt , so that fiddler installed in the client side or server side.
Thanks,
Ramarajan M.
Client side. But do keep in mind, Fiddler is ideal for testing purposes but it obviously is too much work for an actual end user solution.
Hi Levi,
Finally i am getting this Error . Please look at the snapshot i have attached , if there is any mistake please guide me
Thanks ,
Ramarajan M
in this i am using USERDIRECTORY\USER .
note: Here i am using VPN Connection . Please help me.
Hi Levi,
Thanks Levi I got it. Thanks for your support.
Thanks

The key item to remember with http header authentication is that the header name and value must be passed with every request to the Qlik Sense server. As soon as the header name and value is not present in the web request, the Qlik Sense server will sever the connection.
What is the use case you want to use header authentication for?

Hi Jeffrey,
I have some users are in AD so they can Authenticate using Windows Authentication , some External user are in MySQL Server OR Excel file, these users I have loaded using ODBC now all the users are available in Users List .
The External users not Exist in Windows Environment. So using this Header authentication Dynamic User Directory we can pass the user directly to the Qlik Sense HUB.
I am doing As per your Document
"Qlik Sense 1.1 Set Up Header Auth Virtual Proxy ".
how are you processing identity verification before header authentication? Header auth is appropriate for reverse proxy scenarios. You need to develop an identity verification solution for your mysql users and then integrate it with a Qlik auth scheme like ticketing to allow the validated users to access Qlik Sense.
Hi,
How do we make this work for LDAP authenticatoin?

hi Jeffrey,
header auth is a appropriate reverse proxy
scenarios I am agree with this i am trying to this only
to do this we don't want we don't want identity verification solution
i Think because we doing reverse process.
if anything I was understood wrongly please guide me.
thanks,

Hi,
on http://integration.qlik.com I also created a complete website dedicated on embedding Qlik Sense. In the slide generator you will find more info on header authentication.
Hi,
Yes if you already have an authentication reverse proxy, then you can use Qlik Sense with header authentication.
