Authenticating with HTTP headers

This method allows an HTTP header that contains the user name to be presented to the Qlik Sense Repository Service (QRS) API to authenticate requests. In this case, requests cannot be made directly to the API. Instead, they must go via the proxy server URL. See QRS API URLs.

When using this method to authenticate, requests to the API can be performed on the Qlik Sense server or remotely (however, the proxy server must be set up to receive the user name via an HTTP header).
