All services in the Qlik Sense deployment authenticate their communication using an SSL certificate. The same certificate can also be used to authenticate with the Qlik Sense Proxy Service (QPS) API. When authenticating using this method, the communication is made directly against the QPS.
To authenticate using this method, the following is required:
- The location from where the authentication request is executed must have a copy of the client SSL certificate
- All requests carry administrator level permissions
If APIs are to be accessed from a remote server, client certificates need to be exported from the Qlik Management Console (QMC) and installed on the calling server.
