In addition to the above users are required to add another line for icons to work with TRUECHART:
Set up an IDP
Setting up an identity provider (IDP) is only possible on Qlik Sense Cloud and not on Qlik Business.
The setup of an IDP provider allows you to authenticate your users against the IDP provider (e.g. to use your Active Directory logins). You need to set up the identity provider and then integrate it into the Qlik Management Console.
Qlik provides you documentation on how you can set up the IDP especially using Salesforce.com, Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS), or Azure AD as an IDP:

- Using Salesforce.com as an IDP for Qlik Sense Enterprise Cloud (OIDC authentication)
- Using Active Directory Federation Services as an IDP for Qlik Sense Cloud
- How To: Configure Qlik Sense Cloud to use Azure AD as an IdP
Once you have set up your IDP you integrate/create the IDP connection in the Qlik Management Console. You find the Identity provider settings in the Qlik Management Console.
- Navigate to the Qlik Management Console
- Select “Identity provider”
- Select “Create new” (check next picture for IDP configuration with ADFS)
The picture below shows the settings if you have chosen to use ADFS. Please check the videos mentioned above for more information about setting up different IDPs.
