Content libraries
A content library is a storage that enables the Qlik Sense users to add shared contents to their apps.
The user who creates the content library automatically becomes the owner of that library. The library and the library objects can be shared with others through security rules defined in the QMC.
The Content library overview lists all the content libraries in the Qlik Sense site.
The following table presents the available fields and buttons. By default, only some of the fields are displayed. You can use the column selector () to add fields.

Owner | The owner of the content library. |
