'Please specify a qConfig global variable' error #2

Closed miranda-elliott closed 5 years ago

miranda-elliott commented 5 years ago

When I edit this template to connect to my own app and embed an object, in place of the chart it shows the text error: Please specify a qConfig global variable. All I changed was the host, prefix, and app id in QdtComponent.vue and the object id in EmbedObject.vue. There aren't any errors in the console. I've attached a screenshot. What does this mean and how can it be resolved?

Hello Miranda,

Make sure your prefix is your virtual proxy, if its the default it should be empty like prefix:"", also make sure you are initiating the class only once.

Can you send me the QdtComponent.vue? https://github.com/qlik-demo-team/qdt-vue-template/blob/master/src/components/QdtComponent.vue

miranda-elliott commented 5 years ago

The prefix is my virtual proxy (named test). I'm only initiating the class in QdtComponent,vue.

Here's that file: QdtComponent.vue

Thanks for your help!

I would try the prefix without slashes

I would also make sure that your localhost with your port is whitelisted in the virtual proxy

I changed the prefix to "test" (no slashes) in QdtComponent.vue and "localhost" to "http://localhost:8080" in the virtual proxy whitelist. I'm no longer having the same error, it seems like it's actually attempting to connect now. However, it's failing to connect and showing an error modal I've attached a screenshot of.

Do you have tokens? Does anon have access to the stream where the app is ?

I've just been logging into the virtual proxy in a separate tab to test being able to connect, like they do in this tutorial. The user I'm logging in with has access to the app. I need to integrate authentication into the web app itself and maybe that's the issue here. I'm having trouble understanding how to authenticate and use qdt-components, is authentication and ticketing a part of this? Or is that something I need to do before instantiating the class?

miranda-elliott commented 5 years ago

I've been curious about authentication via headers and whether that would work for this case. Found a thread on Qlik Community asking a similar question about how to use auth headers with qdt-components but it doesn't have any answers.

miranda-elliott commented 5 years ago

Closing because the original issue was resolved.

Opening an authentication specific issue on the qdt-components repo: Issue #39 - Header authentication.
