The user under whose account Qlik Replicate is installed will be associated with the Admin role by default.
You can set user permissions using Active Directory Groups or Local Groups. To set user permissions using Active Directory groups, you can either create Active Directory groups with the names listed in the following table or you can create Active Directory groups with different names. Then, add users to the groups according to the role you want them to perform.
Role | Active Directory Groups |
---|---|
Administrator |
AttunityReplicateAdmins |
Designer |
AttunityReplicateDesigners |
Operator |
AttunityReplicateOperators |
Viewer |
AttunityReplicateViewers |

If you create Active Directory groups with different names, you need to add them to the User Permissions window and set their permissions as described in Managing user permissions.
