Navigating spaces

Spaces are areas in Qlik Cloud where apps, scripts, and other content are stored. This is where you manage content, members, data sources, connections, and notifications for spaces.

Shared and managed spaces are divided into the following sections:

  • Details
  • Notifications
  • Members
  • Data files
  • Connections

You can access these sections by selecting Space details in a shared or managed space.

In a personal space, you can only select Data files and Connections. Select your user profile menu to manage other personal space settings.

When you make any changes to user's permissions for apps or scripts, these changes are not instantly reflected in actively opened apps and scripts. To ensure that the changes to the user's permissions are updated, the user must close all browser tabs belonging to the affected app or script and wait at least two minutes (app session's Time To Live), then re-open the app. This applies to app and script permissions in personal, shared, and managed spaces. Changes in permissions for newly opened apps are reflected instantly.

Details

You view space information in Details, including description, space owner, and space creator.
