Description

Hi,

I want to connect to qlik engine API outside my network - I have access to QMC and HUB. When I'm connected to VPN, it's really easy to connect to api using certificates, but how can i connect without VPN? Is that even possible?

Hi! If I understand you correctly, you mean that you have access to engine directly (port 4747) when you're on your VPN, but only proxy when not (i.e. https://domain/qmc)?

If so, you would need to implement authentication against the proxy using e.g. JWT, you can find an example of that here: https://github.com/qlik-oss/enigma.js/tree/master/examples/authentication/sense-using-jwt

Does that answer your question?
