# Qlik Sense

This guide sets up the Qlik Sense connector using **virtual proxy with header authentication**, a Qlik method that is straightforward to configure between trusted systems. Datalogz reads metadata only; it never accesses the data inside your apps.

{% hint style="info" %}
Certificate authentication is available on request. It requires Datalogz to hold a copy of the client SSL certificate, and all requests carry administrator-level permissions.
{% endhint %}

You will complete two steps: create a virtual proxy in the Qlik Management Console, and create the connector in Datalogz Control Tower. NPrinting monitoring is an optional third step.

### Step 1: Create the virtual proxy in the Qlik Management Console (QMC)

1. In the QMC, create a virtual proxy with header authentication. See Qlik's virtual proxy documentation for the detailed steps.
2. Note the following values; you will need them in Step 2:

* Qlik Sense **host URL**
* **Virtual proxy prefix**
* **Virtual proxy header name**
* **Virtual proxy header value**

### Step 2: Create the connector in Control Tower

1. Sign in to Datalogz Control Tower and go to **Settings > BI Connectors**.
2. Click **New Connector** and select **Qlik Sense**.
3. Enter the **Host**, **Virtual proxy prefix**, **Virtual proxy header name**, and **Virtual proxy header value**. Optionally add the NPrinting configuration (see below).
4. Click **Connect**.
5. Enter a **Connector Name** and select the snapshot frequency (for example Daily or Weekly).
6. Click **Next**, then **Confirm and Finish**.

### Optional: NPrinting

NPrinting monitoring is optional but highly recommended: it lets Control Tower track the usage and distribution of reports from Qlik Sense. The steps assume NPrinting is already installed and configured in your environment. Have the following ready:

* NPrinting **Server Name**
* NPrinting **Port**
* NPrinting **User Domain**
* NPrinting **User Name**
* NPrinting **Password**

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.datalogz.io/guides/organizational-setup/connector-onboarding-guide/qlik-sense.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
