Managing feature preview for your tenant

Last updated: 9/10/2026

As a tenant administrator, you can control how feature preview is made available in Qlik Cloud.

How preview features work in a tenant

Preview features are optional features that are released before general availability. Users can access preview features only if both of these conditions are met:

1. Feature preview is enabled for the tenant.

2. The user has the required permissions.

For more information about viewing and activating preview features, see Feature preview.

Enable feature preview for the tenant

Tenant administrators must enable feature preview before users can access preview features.

1. In Administration, go to Settings > Tenant > Feature preview.

2. Open and read the terms and conditions.

3. Turn on Enable feature preview.

Manage access to preview features

The Activate feature preview permission controls whether users can activate and deactivate preview features. Users can view available preview features regardless of this permission.

The permission is available in both User Default and custom roles, under Features and actions > Feature preview.

To allow all users to activate and deactivate preview features, set User Default to Allowed. To limit activation to selected users, set User Default to Not allowed, then grant the permission through a custom role.

For more information, see Permission settings — Features and actions.

Preview lifecycle and administration

Preview features follow a lifecycle from announcement to either general availability or discontinuation. During the preview period, Qlik may adjust functionality based on customer feedback.

Because preview features can change during this phase, review your role settings and pilot groups regularly.

Security and compliance

Preview features follow the same security and compliance standards as generally available features.
