Professional access allocations

Professional access is allocated to an identified user to allow the user to access streams and apps within a Qlik Sense site. The professional access is intended for users who need access to all features in a Qlik Sense installation. A user with professional access can create, edit, and publish sheets or apps, and make full use of the available features, including administration of a Qlik Sense site.

For Qlik Sense installations licensed with a serial and control number, if you remove professional access allocation from a user, the access type is put in quarantine, if it has been used within the last seven days. If it has not been used within the last seven days, the professional access is released immediately. You can reinstate quarantined professional access, to the same user, within seven days.

Information noteQuarantine is not enforced on Qlik Sense installations that are licensed with a signed license key.

The maximum number of parallel user connections for a single user of this type of access pass is five (5).If you use a license with a signed license key, accessing the QMC also counts and adds to the maximum number of parallel sessions, which is five. To avoid unnecessary session consumption, the root admin should not be allocated any type of access.

When a user with the maximum number of parallel user connections ends a connection (for example, by logging out) five minutes must pass before the user can use the access pass to add another connection (for example, by logging in).

The Professional access allocations overview lists all users with professional access. The following table presents the available fields and buttons. By default, only some of the fields are displayed. You can use the column selector (Table) to add fields.

Tip noteYou can adjust the column width by dragging the header border.

Status

Status of the professional access:

Allocated means that professional access is allocated to the identified user and the user can access the hub and apps.

Quarantined (only in licenses with serial number) means the following:

  • The user cannot access streams and apps on the hub.
  • Professional access was previously allocated to the user and thereafter deallocated.
  • During the quarantine period, professional access can be reinstated to the original user.

Excluded is displayed when you use a license with a signed license key and the number of allocated assignments is larger than defined by the license. In this case, the most recently assigned users are excluded until the number of allocations matches the number defined by the license. If more access allocations are made available, or if the admin removes access for others, access is re-allocated to excluded users. Exclusion can occur, for example, when the number of assignments in the license is reduced.

Last used
