Qlik Sense: Anonymous Hub access

Three requirements needs to be met in order to allow Anonymous users access to the Hub:

• Configure the Proxy to allow Anonymous users
• Create / Enable a Stream for Anonymous users
• Have a license that allows for anonymous access.
  See Which Qlik Sense Enterprise licenses support anonymous access?

Looking into the log file for the proxy (audit log), you may find entries for anonymous users similar to:
 

NONE\anonymousd9e61933-a7e5-4836-8540-5b137a600e69

NONE is the user directory, anonymous is the identifier for the type of account and the GUID is to make the anonymous account unique.

To create a license rule, granting login passes to anonymous users, userDirectory=NONE can be used as a condition in a license rule
