Qlik Sense Requirements:
Configuring Kraken to connect to your Qlik Sense environment will use the authentication method that is set up in your default virtual proxy.

Currently supported authentication methods:
 - Default Windows authentication
 - Active Directory authentication 

Adding a new Qlik Sense Data Provider in Kraken:
 - Log in to Kraken
 - Click on the Menu in the top right corner
 - Select Manage Data
 - Click on the Qlik Sense Data Provider Card

Qlik Sense URL: The URL for your Qlik Sense server. This should include the virtual proxy that was configured in Qlik Sense. The URL should end with a forward slash (/). Example: https://myqlik.server.com/virtual_proxy/

Username: The user directory and user name that you use to log in to Qlik Sense. (e.g. userDirectory\username)

Password: The password used to authenticate your Qlik Sense user

 - Click Connect
