The Directory Service Providers are used for adding users and groups to document ACLs, assigning licenses to users, and resolving group memberships for users.
In this section, we will look at the options available to connect to a database user repository, an LDAP directory, and a QlikView Custom User repository. The Custom User repository is the only one for which QlikView manages the authentication process. The other two will require a third-party authentication, and either Custom Header or Custom Ticket Exchange (CTE), to pass the user information to QlikView.
All of the configurations explained in the following sections take place on the QMC System tab, under the Directory Service Connectors folder.
