Managing data spaces
To manage a data space, you must be a tenant admin, a data admin, or the space owner. Members of the data space who have the Can manage role can also manage the space.
Creating a data space
If you are a tenant admin or data admin, you can create a data space from the Management Console or from the Qlik Cloud Data Integration home. If you are a non-admin user with data space creator role, you can create data spaces from the Qlik Cloud Data Integration home.
Do the following:
-
From the Data Integration home, click Add new, then select Create space.
Tip noteYou can also create a data space in the Spaces section of the Management Console. Click Create new and select Data in Type. -
Enter a name and description.

Click Create.
Managing a data space

You can rename the data space or change the description.

Members
When a data space is first created, only the user who creates the space is a member of the space. To allow other users access to the data space and resources inside the space, add members to the space and assign them roles that give them permissions on the space and resources in the space.

You can view and edit data connections that are created in the data space.

Adding members to a data space
You can add and remove data space members, and you can change or remove their roles.
If an administrator has enabled groups, you can add groups of members to your space. If a space member has individual permissions and group permissions in a space, the highest permission level is applied. User groups are created in the identity provider.
