Managing professional access

You allocate professional access to an identified user to give the user unlimited access to streams, apps, and other resources within a Qlik Sense site.

If you want to release a license to use it elsewhere, you can deallocate professional access. If the access type has been used within the last seven days, the access type is put in quarantine. If it has not been used within the last seven days, the professional access is removed and the license is released immediately.

You can reinstate quarantined professional access, to the same user, within seven days.
