Configuring your deployment

Note: This section is applicable to Qlik Sense Business and Qlik Sense Enterprise on Cloud Services.

Once you receive your welcome email, you will need to log in to activate your account, create your Qlik tenant domain, and configure your deployment. Your tenant domain will be the URL used to access your deployment.

Note: If you have not received your welcome email, contact Qlik Support.
  1. Click on the Let's get started button in the email that you received from Qlik.
  2. On the Activate your account page, enter your Password. Check the box to indicate that you have read the Qlik Account Terms and Conditions, and click Continue.
  3. On the Accept terms page, view and accept the Qlik SaaS Services Agreements terms on behalf of your organization by checking the box, and click Continue.
  4. On the Select your region page, choose a Region from the drop down list, and click Continue.
    Note: Selecting the appropriate region to store your data will ensure optimal performance. The region will be part of your URL. The default Region is selected based on the region that is closest to your location.
    Note: There is a maximum allowable number of tenants that you can create in a region. Contact Qlik Sales to manage your user account.
  5. On the Specify your URL page, enter the URL that you will use to access your Cloud Services deployment, and click Create. Use the name of your company or group. This URL must be unique.

  6. On the Setup successful! page, take note of and save the links to The hub and Your tenant recovery link. You can use the Copy links to clipboard button to save these links.

    The hub is where you go to share and interact with apps.

    Your tenant recovery link is where you go in the event that you can't log in. Log in here using your Qlik account.

    Note: It is important that you store your tenant URL and tenant recovery link in a safe place, so that you can access the deployment when needed.
  7. Click on the Start using Qlik Sense button, or enter the hub URL to get started.

Configuring Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)

To provide enhanced secured access to My Qlik MFA is now available. MFA provides an added layer of security for accessing Qlik Sense Business. MFA can be set up with a mobile device or using desktop options.

MFA is mandatory for the service account owner (the person who creates the tenant) and tenant admins with a paid Qlik Sense Business subscription. MFA is optional during a Qlik Sense Business trial period. When a trial completes and turned into a paid subscription, service account owners and tenant admins are asked to setup MFA at the next log in. Service account owners and tenant admins cannot disable MFA after conversion to a paid subscription.

  1. Go to My Qlik and select the Password & security tab.
  2. Under Multi-Factor Authentication click the Setup button.
    Note: You will be prompted to setup MFA the next time that you log in, or you can click Setup now.
  3. Install a multi-factor authentication app on your device.
  4. On the Set up multi-factor authentication page open your authentication app and scan the QR code with your camera
  5. Enter the code generated by your authentication app and click Continue.
  6. On the Multi-factor authentication successful page copy the recovery code and save it in case you ever need to log in without your device.
    7. Warning: This important recovery code link is provided for one time use. If you use the MFA recovery code, a new one is generated. Always save the last one generated.
  7. Click continue to return to My Qlik.
