Create the Qlik app
This topic describes how to create the Qlik app in Access Gateway.
Create the app in Access Gateway
- Sign in to the Access Gateway Admin UI console.
- Click the Applications tab.
- Click +Add.
-
Select Qlik from the app menu, and then click Create.
See Supported apps and versions for a list of supported apps and versions.
Configure the app
- In the Essentials pane, configure these options:
Field Value Label The name of the app. Public Domain The externally facing URL of the app, like https://qlik.<gateway.info>. Protected Web Resource The URL and port combination of the Qlik app that you're protecting, like http://qlik.<internal.info>. Group The group containing users who can access the Qlik app.
Configure load balancing
Only use Access Gateway as the load balancer. See Load balancing.
- Expand the Protected Web Resource tab.
- Enable Load Balancing By Access Gateway. A table of hostnames and weights representing the target load-balancing instances appears. This table is initially empty. Click the Edit
icon to modify an entry in the table, or click the Delete 
icon to delete an entry. - Choose either HTTP or HTTPS as the URL scheme. Each protected web resource that you add inherits this scheme.
- Optional. Enable and enter the Host Header value.
- Complete the following steps to add a host. Repeat these steps as required:
- Click Add protected web resource.
- Enter a fully qualified hostname:port combination, like for example, https://backendserver1.atko.com:7001.
- Enter a weight from 1 to 100. Enter 0 to specify that a host is disabled.
Weights represent the percentage of requests that are routed to this host. For example, two hosts of weights 2:1 result in requests being routed approximately 66% to the host weighted 2 and approximately 33% to the host weighted 1.
- Click Okay.
-
Optional. Configure health checks. They use GET operations to confirm that back-end resources are functional. New requests aren't routed to resources that have been labeled unhealthy by the health checks.
- Enable Load Balancer Health Check.
- Click Edit to modify health check settings.
- Modify the settings as required.
Field Value Default
Path The URI path to the resource used in the health check. / Method The HTTP method used in the health check. Always GET Status code The HTTP status code used to determine health. 200 Interval The interval between health checks in seconds. 10 Request timeout The health check request timeout in seconds. 1 Healthy threshold The number of requests that must succeed before a host is considered healthy. 3 Unhealthy threshold The number of requests that must fail before a host is considered unhealthy. 3 - Click Save.
