Spaces
Spaces are areas where apps and other content are stored. Spaces can be personal, shared, or managed.
All users have a personal space where apps they create are stored by default. Personal spaces are private. You can share your personal content by moving them to a shared space.
Users with the Shared Space Creator role can create shared spaces. Shared spaces are private when first created. Shared spaces allow collaborative development of apps and other content. Spaces also limit access to apps in the space. Access to apps in the space is granted by adding members to the space.
Managed spaces can be created by tenant or analytics administrators, or users with the Managed Space Creator role. Managed spaces are used to provide strictly controlled access to apps that might have sensitive data. Apps are developed in other spaces and then published to the managed space.
You can select spaces to which you have access from the drop-down in Catalog.
For information on spaces, see:
Collections
Collections enable you to group content such as apps, charts, notes, and links.
To add content to a collection, click > Add to collection on any content type.
If you are using Qlik Sense Mobile SaaS, you also have a Mobile Content collection. Apps that you have opened in the Qlik Sense Mobile SaaS app are automatically added to Mobile Content.
Collections section
By default, collections are private. Tenant admins and analytic admins can make collections public to share them with all other members of the tenant. Public collections do not change members' access to content in spaces. Members will only be able to see content in public collections to which they already have access. To make a collection public, click on the collection, select Make public, and click Make public. To make a public collection private again, click , select Make private, and click Make private.
